Questions
Anything else? Talk to a human.
Do I own my notes?+
Yes. Notes are plain Markdown files on your disk. You can open the folder with any editor, back it up with anything, and leave anytime.
Can you read my notes?+
No. Sync is end-to-end encrypted. Semantic search runs on device, so your content never leaves your machine unencrypted.
Can I import from Notion or Obsidian?+
One click for Obsidian vaults (they're already Markdown). Notion, Apple Notes, Evernote and Roam exports are supported too.
Is there a mobile app?+
iOS and Android, with offline support and the same encrypted sync.
Your second brain starts with one note.
