Your domain has nouns we didn't think of
Projects, companies, invoices — BlokNotes ships with the records most businesses need. But maybe you track rental properties, lab samples, podcast episodes or job candidates. Custom objects let you define those types yourself.
Each custom type gets a name, an icon, a color and its own fields — and its records behave like first-class citizens: listable, linkable, taggable, with a full note page each.
What you get
- Custom types with singular/plural names
- Icons and colors per type
- Typed fields: text, number, select, date
- Required fields and field ordering
- Records with full note pages
- Linking to notes and other objects
- Archiving per type and record
Model it in minutes
Define a type — say 'Property' — choose its icon and color, and add the fields that matter: address, purchase price, status, next inspection date. The type appears in your sidebar like any built-in module.
Records that hold real content
Every custom record is also a note: structured fields on top, free-form blocks below. The property record holds the viewing photos and negotiation notes; the candidate record holds the interview transcript.
- Structured field values plus a full block editor
- Relations and mentions to anything else in the workspace
- Owner tracking and archiving like built-in objects
Questions about custom objects
What field types are supported?
Text, numbers, dates and select fields with custom options — plus required flags and ordering. The record's note page handles everything unstructured.
Can custom objects link to built-in ones?
Yes — custom records participate in the same linking system as notes, projects and companies, so they show up in backlinks and related views.
