Why our apps are local-first

The cloud is optional. Your work isn’t.

Four commitments behind every app we make.

01

It’s on your disk

Files live in plain folders you control. Open them in any editor, back them up your way, keep them forever.

02

Zero telemetry

No analytics, no trackers, no “anonymous” pings. The apps work fully offline and stay that way.

03

No account wall

Download, open, work. There’s nothing to sign up for and no server that can lock you out.

04

Pay once, own it

A one-time price for a real license. No renewals, no feature ransom, no rug-pulls.

Coming from Notion, Obsidian, Todoist?

Keep what you love. Drop the lock-in.

The subscription stack

What you’re used to
$Monthly fees that never stop, across three or four apps.
☁Your notes and tasks sit on a vendor’s servers.
◔Telemetry and AI features quietly read your content.
⤫Export is an afterthought; leaving is painful.

What makes us different

What you get
✓One-time purchase. Buy the apps you use, keep them for good.
✓Everything is a local file in a folder you own.
✓Nothing is uploaded, analyzed, or phoned home.
✓Plain markdown or open databases — your data is portable by default.
Pricing

Buy it once. It’s yours.

Pay once on the store you already trust. Per-platform pricing, no subscriptions — and deliberately no cross-platform bundle.
