Standard Notes

Standard Notes is a privacy-focused note-taking application that puts security and user control at its core. Built with audited, industry-leading end-to-end encryption, this European software ensures that only you have access to your data - not even the company can read your notes.

The platform offers unlimited notes and devices for free, making it accessible to everyone who values privacy. Unlike mainstream services like Evernote or Google Keep, Standard Notes uses zero-knowledge encryption that protects against government access, employer surveillance, and data breaches.

Key features include:

• Cross-platform synchronization across all devices
• Offline access to your notes without internet connection
• Automated backups and secure cloud sync
• Support for various content types: markdown, rich text, code snippets, files, and more
• Open-source codebase independently audited by security researchers

As an independent company with zero venture capital funding, Standard Notes operates on a sustainable business model funded entirely by paying users. This ensures the platform remains aligned with user interests rather than investor demands.

The application supports diverse use cases from personal journaling and task management to storing sensitive documents like legal contracts, health records, and financial information. With 9 years of reliable service, Standard Notes has established itself as a trusted alternative for users seeking genuine privacy in their digital note-taking.
