Your notes on every browser tab

A notes editor that opens the moment your browser does. Slash commands, checklists, images, instant search, and optional sharing with your local AI agent. Your notes never leave your device.

Taking a quick note should not be this hard

Your thoughts scatter everywhere

Sticky notes, DMs to yourself, a dozen Untitled.txt files you will never find again. The idea is gone by the time you find somewhere to put it.

Note apps are heavy and nosy

The big ones are slow to open and quietly sync your private notes to someone else's cloud, behind an account you did not want to make.

Your most-opened screen does nothing

You open a new tab dozens of times a day and stare at a search box. That is the most valuable real estate in your browser, wasted.

Notes Tab turns that empty new tab into the fastest place you have to write something down.

A real editor, right there

Everything happens on the new tab. Here is what that looks like.

Press / for anything

Headings, lists, checklists, images, a divider. The slash menu puts every block one keystroke away, no toolbar hunting.

The slash command menu open in a note, listing block options

Formatting that stays out of the way

Type Markdown and it renders as you go. Select any text for bold, italic, code, or a link. No raw syntax cluttering the page.

A tab for every train of thought

Keep projects, drafts, and scratch notes in separate notebooks across the top. Switch with a click or Cmd/Ctrl + [ and ].

Multiple named note tabs along the top of the page

Light, dark, or whatever your system is

Auto follows your operating system and switches live. Or pick light or dark and stay there. Either way it looks like a real editor.

Works with your AI agent

Hand your notes to a local AI agent

Notes Tab can share the notes you choose with an AI agent running on your own machine, so it can read what you are working on. It is off by default, and nothing leaves your device unless you mark it.

You choose what's shared

Mark a note with the lightning bolt. Everything else stays private.

Plain files your agent can read

Shared notes are written as Markdown into a folder on your computer, with an index your agent can follow.

Local and read-only

Nothing is uploaded anywhere. Turn it off and the shared files are removed.

Includes a ready-made prompt to point your agent at the right folder.
