Free.
Forever.

Everything essential is free

NoteFlow is local-first: your notes are plain .md files on your machine, and the whole product works without an account, a server or a subscription. This is the full app — not a trial tier.

Plans & pricing

The plans buy convenience, not capability — and you subscribe from inside the app: Settings → Account, monthly or annual. The checkout opens in your browser and payment is processed by Lemon Squeezy, our merchant of record.

The final price is always shown at checkout. Annual billing costs less than 12 months at the monthly price.

NoteFlow AI — the managed model Available now

The AI chat needs a language model. The free routes: run one locally with Ollama, or paste your own API key. NoteFlow AI is the third route, for people who don’t want to deal with either — a model managed by NoteFlow that just works the moment you subscribe.

• No Ollama to install, no third-party account, no API key to buy, store or rotate.
• A monthly token quota is included — 3M tokens per month by default.
• Monthly or annual subscription — €5.99/month or €49.99/year. Subscribe from inside the app: Settings → Account → Subscribe — checkout opens in your browser, handled by Lemon Squeezy, our merchant of record.
• Once the payment goes through, NoteFlow AI activates itself as your provider — nothing to configure.

Standard models — base quota

Mid-tier models — 2× quota

Advanced models — 6× quota

All curated models support tool-calling (the agent), and all support vision (image attachments) except the two DeepSeek models and Xiaomi MiMo, which are text-only. The monthly quota is weighted by model: standard models spend it at the base rate, mid-tier ones at 2× the rate and advanced ones at 6× — so on an advanced model every token counts as six.

NoteFlow Cloud — encrypted note sync Available now

NoteFlow Cloud is managed sync: hands-off, automatic sync between devices, with none of the push/pull friction of a git-based flow.

Your notes are encrypted in transit and at rest, and you choose the trust model: managed mode (the default — nothing to remember, sign in and it just syncs) or private end-to-end encryption (opt-in, unlocked with a passphrase plus recovery code, where not even the operator can read your notes).

• Automatic sync across devices — no manual pushes, no waiting on a git flow.
• Two encryption modes: managed by default (zero secrets to keep), or opt into strict E2EE where the keys never leave your devices.
• Monthly or annual subscription — €3.99/month or €39.99/year, subscribed from inside the app (Settings → Account).
• For people who don’t want to create and manage a GitHub repo just to sync notes.

Managed vs self-managed

Same capabilities, two ways to get them. Pick per capability — they mix freely, and switching is never locked.

Privacy with the managed AI

Subscribing to NoteFlow AI does not change the local-first architecture — the boundaries documented in How the AI works → privacy hold exactly the same.
