Numori Notes
Notes that do the maths for you
A plain-text notepad with a natural-language calculator built into every line. Write "48 GBP in EUR" or "12% of 340" and the answer appears beside it, no separate calculator needed.

Every line of it open source
Notes, mail, calendar, files, tasks and more. Built properly, priced fairly, and with no interest whatsoever in what you keep inside them.
No AI assistants. No tracking. No adverts. Not now, not later.
Six commitments. Each one is either visible in the source code or it is not a commitment at all.
No tracking, no profiling, no advertising, no third-party analytics. Each service collects what it technically needs to function, and stops there.
Every client and every server, not just the bits that are safe to show. Promises are cheap; a public repository you can compile yourself is not.
No assistants, no summaries, no "smart" suggestions quietly reading your data to justify a valuation. Tools that do the thing you asked, and only that.
One subscription covers the entire ecosystem. The price follows how much storage you need and how many people share it — no per-product tiers, no feature withheld for a higher price, and no "contact sales".
Small, careful releases. Keyboard-first, properly accessible, quick on the hardware you already own, and translated by people who speak the language.
Open formats and one-click export in every app. Self-host the whole stack, or walk out with your data intact. Leaving should be boring.
Everything shares one account, one design system and one set of rules. Here are the pieces we are building first.
Notes that do the maths for you
A plain-text notepad with a natural-language calculator built into every line. Write "48 GBP in EUR" or "12% of 340" and the answer appears beside it, no separate calculator needed.
A clipboard with a memory and a filter
A clipboard manager that keeps your history on your machine, recognises code and formats it properly, and refuses to record anything from the apps you tell it to ignore.
An email client that is only an email client
A fast, private client for the mailbox you already have — any IMAP or SMTP account, whoever runs it. No assistant offering to write your replies and no engine reading your post. A Numori-hosted mail service will follow later, priced separately from storage.
Storage that cannot read what it stores
End-to-end encrypted file storage with ordinary sharing, ordinary folders and no content scanning. Files go up encrypted, and the server never sees the keys.
A calendar that keeps your schedule to itself
Encrypted events with proper recurrence, real time-zone handling and invitations that work with everyone else's calendar. Your diary is not training data.
Tasks, not a productivity philosophy
Lists, projects, due dates and recurrence, with an offline-first store and keyboard-first navigation. No streaks, no scoring, no nudges.
A fair comparison against how a large privacy suite is typically put together, not against any one company.
| Numori | The usual arrangement | |
|---|---|---|
| Open source | The entire ecosystem, clients and servers | Clients only, and often not all of them |
| AI features | None, as a matter of policy | Added yearly, usually on by default |
| Tracking | None, including on this website | Product analytics and marketing pixels |
| Pricing | One subscription, every product | Per-product tiers that add up quickly |
| Self-hosting | Supported and documented | Enterprise plans, if at all |
| Getting your data out | Open formats, one click, no support ticket | Partial exports in proprietary formats |
Progress reports, decisions we had to argue about, and the occasional opinion.
Refusing to add AI features is not nostalgia or a marketing angle. It is the only position consistent with the other promises we have made.
Publishing a client while the server stays closed proves almost nothing. Here is what an open client actually tells you, and what it does not.
Numori UI started as a components folder inside the notes app. Extracting it taught us more about accessibility than about component APIs.
Every repository is public, including this website. Have a look at what is finished, what is half-built, and what is still only a plan.
No app needs a subscription and nine of the thirteen need no account at all, so for most of the people using Numori there is nothing to buy. Donations pay for the servers those free apps run on — the storage nodes, the sync relay, the build machinery. No perks, no donor tiers, no name in a credits file unless you ask.
