Unnote is a modern note app for people who want clarity, speed, and control. Open it and start writing right away. No clutter. No noise. Just a clean space for thoughts, checklists, and quick capture.

Fast. Secure. Companion.

Unnote works best as a quiet writing assistant: always close, never in the way, and ready to catch the next thought before it disappears.

Fast

Open quickly, type immediately, and capture a thought before it slips away.

Secure

Local-first storage, local OCR, and optional diagnostics controls keep you in charge.

Companion

Unnote is a scratchpad helper for your real workflow, not a bloated replacement for your main notes system.
