Keep your draft open and continue, shorten, or polish it in place. With Inki, you can: • Draft with AI from the cursor and keep writing • Rewrite selected text: Improve, Shorten, Lengthen, Revise, or Deslop • Ask the assistant about structure and wording, with web search when you need it • Review suggested changes as a diff before applying them • Generate and edit images with AI • Organize notes in folders and find them with search • Attach PDFs, images, or photos from your camera for context • Go back to any earlier version; every rewrite is saved • Pick up the same documents on the web and in the Mac app Use Inki for emails, articles, proposals, reports, essays, books, and fiction. It works for a short note and for a draft you keep growing. Start with the free plan. A subscription is required for more AI usage. An account is required.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Inki at none against Memo's shown. Inki also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
