Owl 1.0 Launch

June 21, 2024

Announcing the release of Owl 1.0 on the Mac App Store!

Owl is a note-taking app that brings a simple, open, and powerful way to manage notes to your Mac.

What sets Owl apart?

Your Data is Yours

• Owl notes are just files formatted in the open Markdown standard, so they are easy to read and compatible with a large number of apps.
• You are never locked in—migrating to a different note-taking app can be as simple as moving your library folder to a new location.

Local = Private & Fast

• All your data is stored locally; we don’t send it to our servers, so only you can access your information.
• This also translates into super-fast loading times.

Simple is Better

• Owl provides a frictionless note-taking experience with a clean UI that allows you to just focus on writing down and organizing your ideas.

Native All the Way

• Owl feels at home in your Mac, using commonplace concepts and following system design standards that makes it familiar and easy to learn.

Owl is launching today as an early version to gather feedback while continuing to develop the product. Expect important features to be added in the coming months!

If you are among the first to discover Owl at this early stage, please share your feedback. We want to hear from you.
