Questions before you start?
Can I use my written files in both?
Runnrr’s saved written knowledge can be opened in other compatible editors, including Obsidian.
Will Runnrr read all my attachments?
Runnrr uses supported written content and available extracted attachment text. Keeping an attachment alongside a note does not guarantee that all of its contents are available for the task.
Do I need a separate AI subscription?
No. Scanning, reply drafting and goal suggestions work inside Runnrr. Optional Claude Code and Codex connections use your own accounts.
