Overview
Roam Research is a networked note-taking workspace built around pages, blocks, bidirectional links, daily notes, references, and queries. It is designed for people who want ideas and source material to remain connected across a graph rather than separated into folders. The service is proprietary and available through its hosted and desktop products. Roam’s official documentation covers APIs, extensions, semantic search, and local MCP connections. Its official roam-tools repository adds an MCP server and CLI that let compatible AI assistants read, search, query, and modify graph content.
