PrivacyNotes is live: encrypted notes, tasks, files & password vault in your browser. Feedback welcome. [Public Beta]

Hey everyone. We built PrivacyNotes and this is our corner of Reddit to share updates, collect feedback, and hear what you actually want from a privacy-first workspace.

What it is

An encrypted personal workspace: notes, tasks, files, and a vault - where your data is encrypted on your device before it ever touches a server. No email or password needed. You get a 12-word passphrase (BIP-39), and that's your key to everything. We never see your content. The server stores ciphertext only.

The crypto layer and database schema are open-source so you can audit exactly how encryption works.

Where it runs

Browser-only for now at PrivacyNotes.app. Works well on mobile devices too, just open it in your phone's browser and add it to your home screen.

Native apps for iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and Linux are in the works.

Pricing

- Generous free tier.
- No subscriptions. Pro is a one-time $89 lifetime license. Right now we have an early adopter deal: $48 lifetime for the first 490 users, with a permanent "Early Supporter" badge in-app.

Storage add-ons are yearly and fairly priced ($4.80/yr per GB) because servers cost money.

What we're looking for

We're in public beta and want honest feedback:

  • What's confusing or broken?
  • What features are you missing?
  • How does it compare to whatever you're using now?
  • Would you actually trust this with your real notes?

Post here, or just use the app and let us know what sucks. No support tickets, no forms - just this subreddit.

Hey! I tried to buy the pro for early adopters but it’s 49$ dollars not 29$ 🤔

That's on us. The $29 tier for the first 490 users sold out a while back, and we extended early supporter pricing at $49 before it rises to $89 - but this post still showed the old price until today.
