What this site collects

When you apply for the beta: your email address, which page you applied on, and which example board you chose as looking most like yours (the form starts on the board shown on that page; you can change it or leave it empty).
What computer you would use. For a Windows PC we also ask its Windows version, how much memory it has, and whether it has a separate graphics card. If you tick the box, we also keep that you'd report a bug or answer a short survey each week.
From those answers we work out whether and when to invite you (soon, later, or not yet), and keep that too.
This site sets no cookies.

The beta list is kept in Loops, an email service. Loops stores your address and your answers so we can send you beta news and choose who to invite.
The site is hosted by Vercel.
We don't sell or share your address with anyone else.

Beta news about every two weeks. Unsubscribe in one click.
An email when your invite is ready. If your computer isn't supported yet, we email you if that changes.

Click "Unsubscribe" at the bottom of any email, or reply to it and ask. We delete your address and your answers from the list.

No account to make. Your notes are files in a folder on your PC.
No usage tracking.
AI features are optional and can run on your PC.
The app goes online when you ask it to, such as saving a web page or sending a draft to Substack.
It also checks for updates about every 4 hours while it is open. That sends the app name, its version and your processor type, never your notes or files.
In the beta, it contacts this site only when you ask for more time. That sends your answers to the questions in that dialog, your access code (which contains your email address) and the date your access ends. No notes are sent.
