Notes that live

Why My Notes

A notepad that respects your tabs and your data.

Lives in the side panel

Pin it open beside any tab. Your notes follow you across the web without stealing a window or breaking your flow.

Instant full-text search

Find anything as you type. Matches surface across every note, so the right thought is always a keystroke away.

Local-first & private

Notes are stored in your browser profile. Nothing is uploaded or tracked — your words never leave your machine unless you turn on sync.

Markdown in & out

Write in rich blocks — headings, lists, tables, images — and export or import clean Markdown or JSON anytime. Your notes stay portable.

Optional cloud sync

Flip on sync to mirror your notes to a private app folder in your own Drive or Dropbox. Off by default, yours to control.

Revisions & auto-save

Every keystroke saves itself, and revision history lets you step back. Dark mode, tables and images come standard.

A real editor

Rich blocks, not a textarea.

Headings, checklists, tables, code and images — with Markdown shortcuts and a slash menu. Type / for commands or [] for a task. Every keystroke auto-saves locally and is there the moment you reopen the panel.

Private by default

Your notes stay yours.

No sign-up and nothing collected. Notes are written straight to your browser's own storage — fully usable offline. Turn on sync and a copy goes only to a private app folder in your own Drive or Dropbox, never to us.

// where your notes are stored
storage = browser.indexedDB
collected = "nothing"
sync = your Drive / Dropbox (optional)

// export whenever you want
note.export("markdown")

Keep a clear head, one tab at a time.

Add My Notes to Chrome and start writing in seconds. No account, no setup, no catch.
