"Firstly Roam Research is the most amazing software, for student or business, or simply personal. I took Nat’s first course because I wanted to use it really efficiently and fully understand the power of it. Nat did a perfect job of taking me step by step, and most of the time when I was ready to ask a question, the next module answered it - sign of a well designed course. Thoroughly recommend it."
- Ian Traynar
"Nat's course is more than a tutorial, it is the foundation of a methodology upon which you can build your thoughts and process. As a tool, Roam is powerful - but without a strategy it is useless. This course helps you hit the ground running."

- Dominic Edmunds
"Before Nat’s course I had just started using Roam as a journaling and note taking tool, I loved its flexibility and I was sure I could do more with it but didn’t know how. Nat’s course was an eye opener and it really helped me expand my Roam usage in ways I wasn’t expecting like the task management, goal setting and CRM functionalities."

Which Version is Right for You?
"The Roam course really opened my eyes to all the different ways that Roam can be used. Before taking the course, I was using Roam as just a note taking app. Now, I'm doing habit tracking, productivity, project management, and even basic calculated tables."
- Brandon Brown
"What was extremely beneficial in the course was illustrating all the various shortcuts, menus and use of the side bar, which drastically improved my productivity within Roam. I adopted the templates and attributes which provided a solid starting point. I got inspired and excited watching your various workflows within Roam, particularly on writing articles."
- James Whelton
"I made the switch from Notion to Roam after watching Nat’s course. Roam can be intimidating in the beginning, but Nat does a fantastic job explaining how to easily use Roam to unlock its greatest potential. Every morning when i begin working, I copy and paste my pre-programmed template into the automatic “Daily Notes” page and I’m off to the races. I’ve seen a huge uptick in productivity since making the switch.”
- Austin Gray
"I figured myself to be a savvy productivity nerd. But Nat's methodical and well-thought-out workflow was extremely helpful in jump-starting my own journey into crafting my own customized Roam Research workflow. Saved me a tonne of time and I still find myself going back to Nat's video to check on specific items every now and then."
- Enoch Chhabra
"I took Nat's Roam Course and found it invaluable in giving me ideas on how to structure my own Roam. I like the use of metadata to create structure on the fly, and have tested a number of Nat's project templates while developing my own! The flexibility of the bi-directional linking, plus the initial framing and ideas I received from Nat's course have created a note-taking system that is genuinely delightful to use.
- Shiyan Koh
"I got in pretty early, but when I tried Roam on my own in December, it didn’t stick. Nat’s videos explained things so clearly and introduced me to new features that I didn’t know about. They gave me the foundation I needed to make Roam work for me. I’ve now integrated Roam into my workflow so much that it’s the first app I go to every day (Morning Pages are great!)."
