What it does

Small habits, compounding hard

Quick capture

One hotkey opens a blank page from anywhere. Thoughts land before they fade.

Morning resurfacing

Five old notes with your coffee. Half of them will surprise you.

A colorful desk with a keyboard and monitor from above

Two-way links

Mention a note and it mentions you back. Ideas meet without you playing matchmaker.

Search that reads

Ask for “that thing about urban bees” and find it. Semantic search runs on your device.

And when you leave, everything leaves with you. Plain Markdown, one folder, no ransom.
