What is Znote?
Znote is a clean, local Markdown editor that combines AI assistance with runnable code blocks, all while respecting your privacy. Designed for developers, writers, and data enthusiasts, it works directly with your .md files on disk—no cloud, no account required. The AI is context-aware: simply type @ and select a note, template, or code block to define what the AI should reference. Answers appear inline, right in your current note, making research and writing seamless. The code blocks support JavaScript and Node.js, allowing you to query databases, call APIs, parse files, or generate charts and tables—all within the editor. Press play, see results inline, and save the note as a reusable tool. This Jupyter-like experience for JavaScript accelerates prototyping and learning. Znote’s interface is minimal and distraction-free, with a WYSIWYG feel for plain Markdown. You can compose folders from anywhere on your disk into one workspace, making it easy to organize projects. It’s free to use offline with all features included, and you get free AI requests to test the capability. For unlimited AI, a one-time license of €29.90 unlocks your own models—OpenAI, OpenRouter, or fully local with Ollama. This ensures data stays private and costs remain predictable. Use cases include note-taking with AI-powered research, building interactive documentation, creating data dashboards, or rapid prototyping of scripts. Technical details: runs offline, supports .md files, integrates with local and cloud AI models, and executes JavaScript/Node.js code in a sandboxed environment. Last updated July 2026, with monthly updates from a single indie developer. Znote is your calm, powerful workspace for ideas and code.
