Kept

Open source notes platform

What it does

Kept is a free open source notes program designed to replicate the feeling of Google keep while adding some quality of life changes, without needing to give all of your data to Google.

Get the speed, simplicity, and visual ease of your favorite note-taking apps—while keeping full control of your own data. Kept is designed for people who love fast, low-friction note capture. Whether you need a quick checklist, a drawing, or a simple text note, Kept makes it effortless to jot things down and organize them visually with colors and labels. If you're migrating from Google Keep, we've even included a simple import tool to bring all your existing notes over seamlessly. Create text, checklist, image, and drawing notes. Drag and drop to sort checklists, pin important items, and organize with labels, binders, colors, and backgrounds. Binders are optional named homepages: dedicated…from keepitkept.xyz
