Everything on your mind, in one place: the errands, the worries, the ideas you can’t start yet. Write them down as vague as they are. Pull them apart when you have a moment, a little at a time, until they’re small enough to do.
Free. Every feature, for everyone.
How it goes
01 Empty
Get it out of your head. One box, no folders, nothing to decide first.
02 Unravel
Come back with twenty spare minutes. Write about it, then lift the loose ends out into notes of their own.
03 Done
Tick off what’s done. What’s still waiting comes back to you in review, without a red badge in sight.
Features
A todo list takes the things you already know how to do. This takes those, and everything else on your mind.
Type it and it’s saved. Start with ! for a thing to do, ? for a thing to find out, * for a thought to sit with. Type nothing and it’s scratch, sorted later or never.
Saved as
Block Saturday morning for the course backlog
Type @house anywhere and
it’s filed. A note can sit in several. Topics can nest, and each can
say what it’s for.
@house
A house we actually want to live in
@garden
@bathroom
Done before winter
@courses
Clear the backlog by December
@work
@piano
Errands and reminders go in the same box. Every note has a tick box, whatever its kind, and done notes step out of the list without being deleted.
Renew the car registration
Book the dentist
Return the library books
Chase the electrician about the quote
Send Sam the photos from the weekend
Order the bathroom tiles
Write on a note as much as you like. Lift a loose end out of what you wrote and it becomes a note of its own, attached to the sentence it came from.
Why do I feel constantly behind?
journal · day one
Wrote it out. Mostly it's the course backlog hanging over me — I keep promising myself the weekend and it never happens. And email guilt, though half of that is newsletters I never actually read.
journal · two weeks later
Two weeks on: caught up on the course, inbox is quiet. It was never twenty things — it was two, and one of them was noise.
On a train or in a queue, open Review and what’s been waiting resurfaces, with a question rather than a count. Work through a few, then leave.
waiting · untouched for 12 days
You haven't touched this in 12 days — is it resolved, not actually important, or just heavy? Worth two minutes?
Give anything a due date, or hide it until it matters. Late reads “3 days ago”, never “overdue”, and nothing counts how far behind you are.
A board, a kanban, a calendar, an outline and a list, all over the same notes. The board is a timeline, last to later, with a band for each topic and arrows for what waits on what. The kanban gives each topic a column. Filter any of them and save it as a tab.

Sixteen themes, from Paper to Vaporwave. Some change the colours. Some change the type, the corners and the whole backdrop. Every one works in light and dark.
Switch any time in Settings. Every theme is on every plan.
unnotable has AI built in. It talks a note through with you, sorts a brain-dump into notes, runs a stand-up over everything you’ve written, and works with Claude. None of it runs until you open it, and none of it writes on its own: it proposes changes you edit, strike or commit.
Stuck on something? Talk it through. When it gets somewhere, the conclusion is proposed as a comment and any new notes as drafts.
Paste a brain-dump into the capture box and press Sort this out. It comes back as notes, with kinds, topics and dates, minus anything you already have.
A conversation over everything you’ve written lately. It asks one open question, follows up where your answer and your notes disagree, and proposes what to change.
Connect Claude or any MCP app. It reads your notes as you, and everything it suggests waits under Proposals until you commit it.
I keep saying I'll do the course on weekends and I never do.
Three weekends in a row, going by your thread. What actually happened on those Saturday mornings?
Honestly, email. Then it's lunchtime.
Then the course isn't losing to tiredness, it's losing to the inbox. Worth blocking the morning before email, and checking how much of that inbox is newsletters?
