Everything a note should be — and nothing it shouldn't

A notes app that respects your files, your privacy and your way of thinking.

📄

Markdown on disk

Every note is a real .md file in a folder you control. Read it, back it up, move it anywhere — no proprietary database.

✍️

Rich writing & preview

Write with a rich editor, see a clean reading preview. Folders and hierarchy travel with the file, in its front-matter.

🔗

Organize & link

Group, tag and connect notes the way Obsidian and Evernote taught us to — your knowledge, structured your way.

☁️

Bring your own bucket

Optional sync to any S3-compatible storage — AWS S3, Cloudflare R2, MinIO. No Ginko server ever sees your notes.

🖥️

A real desktop shell

A three-column GinkoNote layout on the desktop, a focused editor on mobile. Native on every platform, never bloated.

🔒

Private by default

Keys and preferences stay on your device. No vendor cloud is required for your notes to live and sync.

Yours from the first keystroke

No lock-in, no account, no waiting. Your notes are files — Ginko just makes them a joy to write.

1

Write a note

Start typing. Ginko saves each note as a Markdown file in your notes folder, instantly.

2

Connect your bucket

Optionally point Ginko at your own S3-compatible bucket to sync across every device you own.

3

Think with AI

Summon the side assistant to summarize, draft and link your notes — over your files, on your terms.

ON THE ROADMAP

An AI that works for your notes — not the other way around.

Ginko ships an optional Gemini assistant today, and is growing first-class MCP agents that can read, draft and act across your knowledge base. The model works for you, over your files, in your cloud.
