Know Where Your Notes Are Stored
The current release saves notes in this browser profile and does not upload note content to an application server.
Start Immediately
No install or account is required before your first note. Open the editor and capture a thought in seconds.
No Automatic Upload
Write without sending note content to an application server. Use a device and browser profile you control.
Return to Saved Notes
Autosave keeps working notes in the same browser profile, ready when you return to that browser.
Keep a Portable Backup
Download TXT, Markdown, or a notebook backup before clearing browser data or changing devices.
Browser Storage Is Convenient, Not Permanent
Export important notes before clearing site data, changing browser profiles, or replacing a device. For collaboration, managed permissions, or dependable access across devices, move an exported file into a service built for that work.
