Bee Notes

Bee Notes adds a native note-taking experience to WordPress. Stop switching between WordPress and Notion/Apple Notes. Write editorial notes directly alongside your posts, search everything from one dashboard, and keep your creative flow inside WordPress where your content lives.

Features:

• Per-post notes panel in the Gutenberg editor sidebar
• Global notes dashboard – all your notes in one place
• Rich text: bold, italic, unordered lists
• Pin up to 3 notes per post
• Works with any WordPress post type
• Share notes with other WordPress users
• Optional link sharing for logged-in collaborators
• Optional AI note actions with your chosen provider or OpenAI-compatible endpoint

Development

The readable JavaScript and CSS source files are included in the src directory. Build tooling and dependency versions are documented in package.json and package-lock.json. To rebuild the production assets, run npm install and then npm run build.

External Services

Bee Notes includes optional AI actions. When enabled, the plugin sends the note content, the selected action prompt, and the administrator-provided API key to the configured provider endpoint. These requests are made only after a logged-in note editor clicks an AI action.

Built-in provider endpoints:

• OpenAI API (https://api.openai.com/v1) – Terms: https://openai.com/policies/service-terms/ – Privacy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy/
• Anthropic API (https://api.anthropic.com) – Terms and Privacy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal
• Google Gemini API (https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta) – Terms: https://ai.google.dev/gemini-api/terms – Privacy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint – The site administrator controls the endpoint and is responsible for that provider’s terms and privacy policy.
