Your notes. Your server.
Your rules.

A self-hostable, offline-first note-taking app that respects your privacy.

Everything you need,
nothing you don't

Rich Editor

Tiptap-powered WYSIWYG with full Markdown support. Bold, lists, code blocks, checklists, and more.

Offline-First

Works without internet. PWA with CRDT-based sync means your notes are always available.

Self-Hostable

One Docker command. Your data stays on your server. No cloud, no tracking, no nonsense.

Tags & Colors

Organize with tags, 12 note colors, and pinned notes. Your notes, your way.

Image Attachments

Drag-and-drop images with auto-optimization. Works offline.

Full-Text Search

Find anything instantly. SQLite-powered search across all your notes and tags.

API & MCP

Full REST API with token auth. Integrate with n8n, Zapier, or scripts. Built-in MCP server for AI tools like Claude and Cursor.

Multi-User

Share one instance with your team or family. Admin manages accounts, each user gets their own private notes.

OAuth & SSO

Sign in with Google, GitHub, or any OIDC provider. Or just use a password — your choice.

Note Sharing

Share notes via public link or with other users. Full collaboration with per-user pins and archives.

Version History

Browse and restore previous versions of any note. Never lose important edits again.

Email Alerts

Optional SMTP notifications for shares, security alerts, and account events. Opt out per user.
