Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about NotesIQ.

What is NotesIQ?

NotesIQ is a Chrome extension built specifically for Substack Notes analytics, draft scheduling, and AI-assisted writing - all running inside your browser.

Can I schedule Substack Notes?

Yes. Draft a single Note or load up a whole week's worth in the Queue, and NotesIQ will publish them for you at the scheduled time.

What is the best time to post Substack Notes?

It depends on your own audience, not a generic rule - NotesIQ's Best Time Heatmap maps your engagement across a 7-day x 6-time-slot grid so you can see exactly when your Notes do best.

How do I track engagement on my Substack Notes?

NotesIQ automatically tracks likes, restacks, comments, and content type for every Note you post, plus an all-time trend view - Substack's own dashboard only shows the last 90 days.

Can I analyze a competitor's Substack Notes?

Yes. Look up any public Substack handle in the Competitor tab to see their content mix, posting patterns, and best times.

Why aren't my Substack Notes getting engagement?

Usually it's timing or content type. The Content Type Breakdown and Best Time Heatmap show exactly which kind of Note and which time slot underperforms for your specific audience, so you can adjust instead of guessing.

How much does NotesIQ cost?

The core analytics and scheduler are a one-time Lifetime payment ($19). AI features (Ghostwriter, Post Coach) are a separate subscription add-on at $9/mo.

Why is AI a subscription instead of one-time?

AI drafting has a real, ongoing cost per generation. Keeping it a subscription lets us keep the Lifetime analytics plan affordable and permanently one-time.

What does 'Lifetime Access' include?

Every current and future analytics/scheduler feature, forever, for one payment - Dashboard, Performance Map, Heatmap, Content Type Breakdown, Scheduler, and more.

Can I get a refund?

Yes - Lifetime purchases are covered by a 7-day money-back guarantee, no questions asked.

How do I cancel my AI Pro subscription?

Through our payment provider's customer portal - log in with the email you purchased with to cancel anytime, view invoices, or update your payment method. No need to contact us.

Does my data stay local?

Yes. Your Notes, profile, and stats are stored in your browser's IndexedDB. License activation talks directly to our payment processor, and AI drafting sends your topic and top Notes to our AI server to generate a draft.

Which browsers does it work on?

NotesIQ is a Chrome extension, built and tested for Chrome.
