The problem.

Every notebook app is a feature arms race. I wanted one with three features and perfect typography.

II · Build

What I shipped.

What

A notebook with three keyboard shortcuts, serif body type, and nothing else.

How

SwiftUI, CloudKit sync, custom keyboard extension.

Why

The restraint IS the feature. 8.9% paid conversion in a market averaging under 2%.

III · Counted Representative figures. Actual client metrics are under NDA.
