The first pillar of Keepsake

Your best ideas come when you least expect them

Driving, hiking, falling asleep, chatting with friends... QuickNotes™ captures them in 2 seconds, so you can stay in the moment.

The Keepsake QuickNote capture bar, with its photo button, above the Today view

Ideas don't wait for the right moment

In the car

Voice dictation captures your thought while you keep your eyes on the road

On a hike

Quick capture before the idea fades—no apps to navigate

Before sleep

That brilliant idea at 2am? Saved. Now you can sleep.

With friends

Note it without breaking the conversation flow

Not every idea is a sentence

A whiteboard at the end of a meeting, a page from a book, a wine label, a sign in the street. The photo button in the capture bar takes them down as fast as a line of text.

The camera

Tap the photo icon, frame the shot, done. The photo is compressed and filed in your Inbox — instead of landing in a camera roll where it would drown among a thousand others.

Your photo library

The same button opens your phone's native picker. Choose one, or ten: they arrive together, in a single note, in the order you picked them.

Drag & drop

On desktop, drag your images straight into the capture bar — or into any editor. Several at once, inserted in the order you dropped them.

Paste

A screenshot, a chart, a mockup: Cmd+V in the field and the image uploads. Two seconds from screen grab to saved note, without leaving the keyboard.

Add a caption, an @contact or a #project# before you send: a photo note connects to the rest just like any other.

More than just notes

Free your mind

Knowing you'll capture and find it later creates mental space. Stop holding everything in your head.

Zero friction

The form appears before the rest of the app loads. Works offline. Nothing stands between your thought and its capture.

Always at hand

Pin important info: parking spot, hotel room, reservation code. One tap to see, one tap to hide.

From idea to action

Every note finds its place—naturally.

Like a sticky note on your desk

You always have a pad of sticky notes within reach on your desk. You jot something down quickly, but it's temporary. You read it back, do something with it, then throw the sticky note away. QuickNotes work the same way — but they're always accessible, wherever you are.

The evening ritual

Every night, go through your Inbox. Turn each QuickNote into a task, a journal entry, or copy it elsewhere. Link it to a contact or a project. Then delete it. Same flow as sticky notes — but more practical.

An overflowing Inbox means the system isn't working.

Powerful shortcuts

Type naturally, let Keepsake do the rest.

T+ QuickTasks

Type 'Call mom T+1' → Creates a task for tomorrow. T+0 for today, T+7 for next week, T+ASAP for urgent, T+? for someday.

@mentions

Type '@John Doe@' → Note is automatically linked to that contact.

Tags & Pages

Type #project# or [[Meeting notes]] → Instant organization, no setup needed.

Merge notes

Combine related ideas into one note. Perfect for gathering scattered thoughts.

Pinned notes

Like sticky notes on the edge of your screen — pin your hotel room, parking spot, or an idea to keep in mind. Always visible, out of the count.

No connection? No problem. Notes sync automatically when you're back online.
