Privacy by design

Zero-knowledge encrypted.
Not even we can read your notes.

TreeNotes encrypts notes and attachments on your device before they sync. Our servers store ciphertext, not your meaning. Your private tree stays readable only to you and the people you explicitly share with.

Why TreeNotes

Your thoughts are not a list — they're a living tree

Flat notebooks force your branching thoughts into straight lines. TreeNotes inverts that: branch first, collapse the noise, and share only the limbs you choose.

Notes in a flat app

One endless pile. Context gone. Good luck in six months.

TreeNotes

Every idea has a place — nested, collapsible, findable. Structure that thinks like you.

Features

Everything you need to think clearly

Powerful where it counts, invisible everywhere else.

Zero-knowledge encryption

Notes, attachments, even titles are encrypted on your device with AES-256 before they sync. Our servers store ciphertext — we couldn't read your notes if we wanted to.

Not even us. By design.

Instant search

Any note, any depth, in milliseconds — decrypted and searched locally, so even search respects your privacy.

Nest without limits

Go as deep as your thinking does. Unlimited levels, collapsible branches, drag-and-drop restructuring as ideas evolve.

Share branches, not everything

Grant view or edit access to a single subtree. Encryption keys are wrapped per person — everything else stays yours alone.

Fast at real depth

A clean rich-text editor, instant sync, and zero loading spinners — the tree stays quick even with thousands of notes.

Works everywhere

Web, desktop, and mobile with seamless sync. Capture on your phone, expand at your desk — your tree follows you.

How it works

From first thought to grown tree

Three steps. No manual, no migration project, no learning curve.

01

Capture instantly

Open TreeNotes, start typing. A fast rich-text editor with zero friction — your idea is safe (and encrypted) before you finish the thought.

02

Branch naturally

Nest details under big ideas, drag notes into place, collapse what you don't need. The structure grows with your thinking.

03

Find effortlessly

Navigate the tree or hit search. Every note is one keystroke away — even years and thousands of notes later.

Start free. Stay free.

The free plan isn't a trial — it's a real workspace with the exact same zero-knowledge encryption as every paid plan.

  • Full tree structure, unlimited nesting

Stop writing lists.
Start growing trees.

Your first idea takes thirty seconds to plant. Free forever, encrypted from the very first keystroke.
