MemNote

Stop losing fleeting ideas to the void.

MemNote is the first context-aware note-taking application designed to work the way your brain does: by association.

Automatic context logging

You focus on the content; we handle the context.

MemNote passively records:

  • Location. Automatically geotags notes so you can find them on a map later.
  • Time. Precise timestamps to visualize your thoughts on a timeline.
  • Device. Know exactly which device you used — did I take this note on my laptop, or on my phone while watching TV?

Recall via association

Browse notes by where and when you took them.

Map and timeline views allow you to browse notes by their meta-data — if you took a note at that restaurant you were at last Tuesday, the note will show up at the restaurant location on the map, and at the time you took the note on the timeline.

Local-first, private, and available everywhere

Your thoughts are private and available everywhere, any time.

For performance and reliability, we store and search notes locally. For backup and availability across devices, we sync notes to the cloud. Data is encrypted both at rest and in transit.

Markdown native, no lock-in

Write in pure Markdown.

Your data is portable, readable, and never locked into a proprietary format. You can export your notes as a well-organized zip file that contains any relative links and attachments. Meta-data is retained in YAML front-matter.

AI compatible

Drop in responses from your favorite assistant.

MemNote uses Markdown with LaTeX extensions to allow you to copy-paste responses from your favorite AI assistant into your notes without any formatting issues. Interact with your notes using MemNoteGPT and integrate with your favorite tools using the MCP server.
