Thoughtful by design

Everything your notes need.
Nothing they don’t.

Fast enough for a passing thought. Structured enough for everything that follows.

01 / WRITE

Choose the way you think.

Use normal notes for simple rich text, or switch to Markdown when your ideas need structure and a clean preview.

02 / ORGANIZE

Find the note you meant.

Folders, tags, search, sorting, pinned notes, archive, and trash keep a growing collection easy to navigate.

03 / SHARE

Make any note worth sharing.

Pick a postcard style, background, ratio, and text color. For longer notes, choose exactly which part should become the card.

04 / KEEP

Your notes are yours.

Export notes as HTML or plain text, create local JSON backups, and restore them whenever you need.
