Smart vs Benchpad

An application for smartphones that allows you to take notes, plan your activities with to-do lists and make a shopping list or event preparation list. Manage your activity by scheduling notes on time and being reminded in a flexible way according to selected priorities. The core feature is to attach a location to a note and be reminded when you are near the place. In further releases, we plan to add the ability to share notes with a specific group of people, whether they are family members, colleagues, or friends. Also, we want to integrate beacons to be reminded in a specific way, and to synchronise an application with Google Calendar personal and/or working as well. Our goals are to help you - to achieve accomplishing of to-do list more effectively; - to reduce the number of undone tasks; - to increase attention to high-priority tasks; - to enhance new positive habits to doing things right away; - to delegate tasks by sharing them with family, friends, colleagues, etc. Stay in touch and report your feedback and found bugs for our mutual success.

Benchpad is a scratchpad, not a second brain. Three pads. You name them — Work / Personal / Scratch, Today / This Week / Someday, whatever fits your head. No folders, no tags, no filing decisions. Open, type, close. WRITE WITHOUT DECIDING Every note app asks "where does this go?" before you've written a word. Benchpad doesn't. Three pads means the decision is already made. WORKS ON A PLANE Offline-first, not offline-tolerant. Every keystroke saves to your device before any network request. Sync happens in the background when you're online — and merges conflict-free if you edited on two devices at once. CONSTRAINT IS THE PRODUCT Benchpad is for people who want to write things down — not maintain a system. A note app that knows when to stop. When you can't create infinite folders, you write instead of organizing. Constraint isn't a compromise. It's the product. A REAL EDITOR Headings, checklists, tables, code blocks with syntax highlighting, images, file attachments all with slash commands and a block editor. NO AI. NO ADS. NO DATA MINING. Nothing reads, summarizes, or trains on your notes. Notes are encrypted at rest. Plain markdown — copy everything out anytime, no lock-in. FREE FOREVER, REALLY One pad, the full editor, offline support, sync, and an archive of 100 notes — free, no credit card, no time limit. Pro ($10/year flat) unlocks all three pads, all six themes, attachments, voice-note audio, and Markdown/PDF export. Benchpad is for people who want to write things down — not maintain a system. A note app that knows when to stop.
