You own the storage
Connect an account you already have. Yadpad writes your notes there and nowhere else, as plain Markdown you can open, edit, or export anytime. Our database holds your account, never a single note.
Your AI second brain
Jot down a thought. Yadpad's AI tidies it, files it where it belongs, and links it to everything related, growing a personal wiki as you go. Every note stays as plain Markdown in storage you own, so it is yours to read, move, or keep forever.
Your notes live in GitHub Google Drive Dropbox OneDrive more soon
What is Yadpad?
A second brain that an AI keeps tidy for you. You capture; it organizes, cross-links, and consolidates. The difference from every other note app: your notes never live on our servers. They sit in cloud storage you already own and control.
A look inside
Features
Connect an account you already have. Yadpad writes your notes there and nowhere else, as plain Markdown you can open, edit, or export anytime. Our database holds your account, never a single note.
The AI connects related notes with [[wikilinks]] and keeps a running index, so your notes grow into a wiki instead of a pile.
Every capture lands in the right PARA folder. No decision to make.
Ask in plain language, get an answer with citations to the exact notes it came from.
The same Yadpad runs on Android and in any browser, from one codebase, always pointed at your storage.
Every AI change is a diff you review first. Approve it and it lands as a single, traceable version in your storage.
Your thinking stays between you and your storage. We never need to read it.
How it works
Jot a note, paste a link, or dump a half-formed thought. No folder to choose, nothing to tag.
It cleans up the writing, files it with PARA, and cross-links it into your wiki. You see the change before it lands.
Each change is one version in your own storage. Ask questions, consolidate over time, keep full control.
Good to know
In cloud storage you own and connect: a GitHub repository, Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive. Yadpad writes there directly. Our database only holds your account.
Nothing happens to your notes. They are already plain Markdown files sitting in your own storage. Keep them, open them in any editor, or move on. No export, no lock-in.
No. You write in plain language and the AI handles the structure. The notes just happen to be saved as portable Markdown, which is what keeps them yours.
No. Your notes live in your storage, not ours. The app reads and writes them on your behalf through the storage you connected, and nothing is copied to our servers.
GitHub, Google Drive, Dropbox, and OneDrive today. The storage layer is pluggable, so more providers are on the way.
Free for 30 days. Your notes land in your own storage from the very first one.
