Knowto vs Vellum

Catch ideas before they disappear. Knowto is a fast, local-first notes app built around an always-ready composer. Write now, organize naturally, and return to any thought without fighting a complicated filing system. BUILD ON EVERY THOUGHT Turn a note into a thread when an idea keeps growing. Add follow-ups while keeping the original context close. FIND WHAT MATTERS Search your notes, add multiple tags, and filter your collection to surface the right thought quickly. KEEP USEFUL CONTEXT Attach photos and other resources to your notes. Expand a note when you need the full detail, or keep scanning through a clean, compact list. LOCAL-FIRST BY DESIGN Your notes stay available on your device. Sign in when you want background sync across iPhone, Mac, and web. Archive notes without losing them, then restore them whenever needed. Knowto keeps note taking immediate, calm, and connected.
