Read full description

ExpandNote is an AI-powered note-taking app for capturing, organizing, and transforming your notes across devices. Write notes with markdown, add tags, dictate ideas with voice-to-text, and use AI Profiles to automatically process notes based on tags. Email-to-note lets you forward information into your notebook, while offline-first sync keeps your notes available when your connection is unreliable. Create, edit, search, favorite, archive, lock, and restore notes. Organize notes with tags and smart workflows. Use your own OpenAI, Anthropic, or OpenRouter API keys for AI-powered note workflows.

About

Tukd

A recipe. A Wi-Fi password. Travel dates, a quote you liked, a jacket you meant to buy. All of it sits in a camera roll you will never scroll through again. Tukd gives those screenshots somewhere to go. Take a screenshot or share one into Tukd, and it does three things: • Names it and files it into a collection using AI • Reads the text in the image and pulls it out, ready to copy • Indexes every word so you can search it later ORGANISED FOR YOU AI reads each screenshot, writes it a title, and puts it in a collection: recipes, travel, work, wishlists, whatever you keep. If the right collection does not exist yet, one tap makes it. You can move anything yourself, any time. SEARCH INSIDE THE IMAGES Search covers titles, collections, your own notes, and the text inside every screenshot. One word you remember is enough to find it. SAVE FROM ANY APP Tap share in Safari, Instagram, Messages, anywhere. Tukd files it while you carry on with what you were doing. REMINDERS Put a reminder on a screenshot and Tukd tells you at the right time. The boarding pass on the morning of the flight. The sale before it closes on Friday. Reminders reach every device you are signed in on. TEXT YOU CAN COPY Addresses, discount codes, ingredient lists, phone numbers. Tukd pulls the text out so you never retype it off an image again. NOTES OF YOUR OWN Add a note to any screenshot: why you saved it, what to do about it. Your notes are searchable too. Export a screenshot's text and notes as plain text whenever you want them somewhere else. PRIVACY Sign in with Apple or Google. Your screenshots live in your account and sync to your devices. Each one goes to Anthropic's Claude API once, to sort it and read its text. Under Anthropic's commercial terms that data is not used to train models, and we never sell it. Delete your account from Profile and everything goes with it. WHAT'S FREE, AND WHAT PREMIUM ADDS Tukd is free to start: 10 screenshots, then 3 more every month. Every feature works at that tier.
