Thanks, I'm really proud of it! Building this out has taught me a lot about the subtleties of UX on different platforms. Quick capture alone ended up being a different design on each: a global hot key on the Mac, the Lock Screen and Siri on iPhone.

Sharing this here because it's the project of mine I dogfood the most. I originally just wanted a notes tool that was quick to add to and that surfaced the right note when I needed it, through search and reminders. It's since become where I keep pretty much everything.

It's a notes app where any note can carry a reminder (one-off, repeating, all-day, or location-based). There are native Mac and iOS apps, a web client, and a browser clipper for Chrome and Firefox.

Your notes aren't locked in: the Mac app exports everything as Markdown files, one folder per notebook, with attachments alongside and links between notes intact. Any single note can be shared as Markdown from any of the apps.

There's also an MCP server, so Claude and ChatGPT can search and write notes. Two things I use that for myself: - Keeping my agent skills as notes, so they stay portable between tools instead of living in one vendor's config (ended up being easier than my Github setup) - Sourdough (missed out on the trend during COVID): I adapt and write recipes in a Claude session, and they're saved straight back as notes

It also imports Evernote libraries, and optional AI features run on-device with small open models. There's a pretty generous free plan otherwise pro is $29/year for the next few days with a small promo I am running for the first few paying users on PH (with the code FOUNDING) and normally $49/year.

If you'd rather run the latest beta, the public TestFlight is https://testflight.apple.com/join/8e283w4y

(We're also on Product Hunt as of today, if that's your thing.)
