@mentions into reusable context.
A person can include a name, company, title, email addresses, phone numbers, websites, birthday, notes, a photo, and files.
Photos are resized to a small image before they sync. Files sync with the person, can be up to 100 MB each, and count toward your storage allowance.
Calendar invitees and mail addresses can help seed your People list.
Mention someone
Type@ in the capture box or editor and choose a person. The mention stays in the sentence.
Names Tuck keeps for itself
Some@ names are reserved for Tuck, AI tools, and integrations, so typing them doesn’t create a person: @tuck, @ai, @assistant, @bot, @claude, @chatgpt, @gpt, @openai, @gemini, @copilot, @linear, @notion, @slack, @todoist, @pocket, @calendar, @gmail, @raycast, @github, @jira, @here, @everyone, @all, and @me.
Capitalization doesn’t matter, and only the whole name counts. @Tuck is reserved, but @Tucker and @tuck-team aren’t.
A reserved name stays as plain text unless you already have a person with that name. You can still create a person with one of these names on the People screen or by importing contacts, and mentions will link to them.
See todos and Awaits with someone
A person’s page shows their todos above their thoughts, under a heading such as Todos with Sam. It lists open and proposed todos that include them, soonest due first. Select one to open its card. The section is hidden when there aren’t any. If you’re waiting on someone, their page also lists those Awaits, such as Waiting on Sam. See Awaits.Catch up with Tuck AI
On Tucker and Founder, a person’s page has a Tuck AI card. Choose Summarize (it shows their name, such as Summarize Sam) for a short summary of where things stand. Mail is left out unless you turn on Include recent mail for that card. See Summarize a person.Merge duplicates
If the same person arrives through multiple sources, merge the records. Tuck shows a conflict picker when both records contain different values for the same field.Import an address book
Open People → Import vCard and choose a.vcf file. Tuck matches contacts by email or phone and merges them with existing people. Importing the same file again skips contacts that are already saved. People you deleted stay deleted.
For an ongoing connection, use CardDAV in Calendars & mail.
Choose whether mail adds people
In Settings → Calendars & mail, turn off Add people from email to stop From and To addresses on synced mail and imported.eml files from becoming People. This does not remove people already saved. Meeting invites can still add their invitees.
