Finally—a place where you can quickly log, well, anything! - Keep track of nagging tasks like car or house maintenance to-dos; no more, "When did I last get my oil changed?" - Log progress and build habits around activities like exercising or reading before bed - Reduce mental load around tracking schedules for things like infant naps or taking medication - Keep track of the books you've read, the wines you've tried, or other hobbies - Reduce browser clutter by sending links to Plotme, building trackers of new recipes, product recs from friends, etc. ...and much, much more! Most people who want to track personal health or life data either juggle single-purpose apps or abandon tracking entirely because setup is too rigid. PlotMe gives you a single, flexible system that adapts to any domain and makes tracking—and finding what you tracked later!—a breeze. Say goodbye to relying on scratch notes and calendar entries that get lost in the shuffle, you deserve better and PlotMe is here to help! PlotMe offers a generous free version, with an optional Pro subscription for unlimited tracking & advanced features. With PlotMe (Free), you can: • Start with built-in templates or create your own custom trackers: Define fields in a few clicks to track anything in one place (up to 3 trackers) • Switch between list and graph views: Graphs automatically adapt to your data—line charts for trends, bar charts for counts, calendar views for date ranges—helping you spot patterns at a glance • Track multiple people in one tracker: Use nicknames or initials to log medications, symptoms, or activities for different friends or family members • Beyond trackers, you can also create Notes in PlotMe! Write rich notes, create checklists, add photos, organize with folders and search, and link notes directly to your trackers so the full story stays in one place (up to 3 notes) • All data stays local on your device Upgrade to a PlotMe Pro subscription to unlock the following: • Set reminders to stay on task: Get notified when it's time to log medications, get that next oil change, or make a next appointment, with flexible scheduling and alerting • Create goals and track your logging streaks to form better habits: You can set different goals for each tracker, and use Reminders for gentle nudges to stay on track • Use PlotBot, PlotMe’s AI assistant, to turn your tracked data into answers: Built to help you understand your trackers and notes faster, you can ask natural questions to find data or get useful insights without digging through entries by hand; you can even go a step further and enable AI coaching insights for individual trackers, to create a feedback loop after logging entries • Get collaborative: Share trackers with other users to easily stay in the loop with friends or family • Up your privacy game: Lock individual trackers with a PIN for a light-weight privacy control and selectively enable cloud sync to back up your data With endless possibilities, PlotMe is the last tracking app you'll ever need.

The personal database that feels like a notes app. Build your own CRM, inventory, contact book, or any other collection in minutes — native, private, and synced with iCloud. Most notes apps give you a blank page. Neatbase gives you structure. Create a notebook, choose its fields, and adding notes becomes as easy as filling out a form. View everything as clean cards or a spreadsheet-style table — sort, filter, and group to see exactly what matters. WHAT WILL YOU BUILD? - A lightweight CRM — leads, deals, follow-ups, activity logs - A home inventory — photos, prices, barcodes - A client directory — tap to call, tap to email - A project plan — statuses, due dates, progress - A content calendar planned around publish dates - An expense log with categories and receipt photos - A library of your books, movies, and recipes — rated and tagged If you can describe it, you can collect it in Neatbase. A FIELD FOR EVERYTHING Choose from 27 field types: text and numbers, currency, dates with reminders, toggles, star ratings, color-coded tags, dropdowns, images, checklists, colors, durations, percent bars, barcodes and QR codes, tap-to-call phone and tap-to-email fields, secrets locked behind Face ID or Touch ID, buttons that open URLs — plus formulas, cross-notebook references, and comment threads with Pro. Change your mind anytime: add, rename, or reorder fields, and every existing note updates instantly. TWO VIEWS, ONE NOTEBOOK Browse and edit in a clean card view, or switch to a full table — resize and reorder columns, edit inline, copy and paste, navigate with the keyboard. Each notebook remembers your view, filters, and sorting. TRULY NATIVE. ACTUALLY FAST. Built in SwiftUI for iPhone, iPad, and Mac — one download covers all three. It launches instantly, works fully offline, and syncs through iCloud. No account to create, no password, no onboarding. Most database apps are websites in a wrapper — Neatbase feels like it shipped with your device. YOUR DATA IS NOBODY'S BUSINESS Your notes live on your device and sync securely through your own iCloud. No tracking, no analytics, no ads. Export everything to CSV anytime — even on the free plan. Your data is always yours. SHARE A NOTEBOOK WITH A LINK (PRO) Send one link and up to 10 people can collaborate in real time — no accounts, no sign-up screens. Shared notebooks are end-to-end encrypted; the server never sees your data. TURN ANY NOTEBOOK INTO A WEB FORM (PRO) Publish a form in a few taps. Anyone with the link can submit from any browser, and responses land in your notebook automatically. Add your logo, pick an accent color, share the link. Perfect for intake forms, signups, surveys, orders, and RSVPs. AUTOMATE WITH THE REST API (PRO) Every notebook can expose its own REST API, with documentation generated from your actual field names. Read and write notes from scripts, shortcuts, and automations. FREE TO USE, FAIR TO UPGRADE Free includes 3 notebooks with 100 notes each, both views, iCloud sync, groups, templates, and CSV export. Neatbase Pro unlocks unlimited notebooks and notes, sharing, web forms, the REST API, and advanced fields — one simple yearly subscription, Family Sharing included. ALSO INCLUDED Notebook templates, Spotlight search, Home Screen widgets, reminders on date fields, nested groups, pinning, keyboard navigation, and custom icons for every notebook.
