PrivacyNotes is a zero-knowledge encrypted workspace that brings your notes, tasks, journals, files, and passwords into one app, so you stop juggling four separate subscriptions.
Everything is encrypted on your device with XChaCha20-Poly1305 before it ever syncs. Your keys are derived from a recovery phrase that never touches our servers, so we cannot read your content, your filenames, or anything else. This is real zero-knowledge, not a marketing label.
Five pillars, one encrypted app:
Built for privacy, not surveillance:
Pricing that respects you:
Works on web, macOS, and soon iOS, Android, Windows and Linux with a responsive mobile layout. Import from Apple Notes, Standard Notes, Google Keep, Obsidian, and markdown in a few clicks.
Search Amazon or Walmart and the results fill up with "brands" like VGEBY, KMOUK, and ZQXWK: the same dropshipped item relisted a dozen times under randomly generated names, wrapped in 200-character keyword-soup titles and suspiciously perfect ratings.
ClearCart is a browser extension that clears that out before you ever see it. Every listing is scored on your device against the fingerprints of dropship junk: gibberish brand names, keyword-stuffed titles, clone-farm relistings of one product under many fake brands, shared review pools, and implausible rating patterns. Anything that fails collapses into a quiet "1 filtered listing - click to reveal" placeholder. Nothing is deleted; one click brings a listing back.
It works on Amazon's English-language marketplaces (US, Canada, UK, Australia, India) and on Walmart's US site, across both search and product pages. A bundled allowlist of 3,000+ established brands keeps real products safe, and house brands like Amazon Basics, Great Value, and onn. are recognized as legitimate.
Free forever: the full filter at a balanced default, clone detection ("near-identical listing x6"), a filtered count per search, click-to-reveal placeholders, a one-click on/off toggle, a compare-price button on product pages, and a diagnostics panel.
Pro ($13/year, 7-day free trial, email only, no card): strictness presets or fully custom weights, personal allow and block lists, best-value-per-unit badges, price history built only from your own visits, trust flags for inflated discounts and auto-generated seller names, sponsored-listing blocking, and house-brand controls.
Private by design: all scoring runs in your browser. No server, no analytics, no telemetry, no account. The only network request it ever makes is the optional Pro license check.
Review checkers grade a product after you have already clicked it. ClearCart works one step earlier, filtering the junk out of the search page itself.
Available for Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.

ClearCartPrivacyNotes's answer
Honestly? We have no idea, and that is the entire point. Signup is anonymous (a recovery phrase or Google, no email or personal details), the app ships zero analytics and zero trackers, and zero-knowledge encryption means we cannot see who you are or what you store. We could not name a single customer if we tried. A privacy product that tracked its users closely enough to brag about them would be missing the plot.
PrivacyNotes's answer
PrivacyNotes is the only zero-knowledge encrypted workspace that keeps notes, tasks, journals, files, and a password vault behind one set of on-device keys. Most privacy apps do one of those well and rent it to you monthly. We do all five, encrypt everything with XChaCha20-Poly1305 before it leaves your device, and charge once instead of forever. The encryption core is open core, published so the claims can be verified rather than trusted.

Three reasons:
PrivacyNotes's answer
Privacy-conscious individuals and independent professionals who handle information they would not want a vendor reading: lawyers, journalists, healthcare and mental-health practitioners, developers, security specialists, researchers, and founders. It also fits anyone who simply wants one private home for their notes, tasks, journaling, and wellness tracking instead of spreading them across surveillance-funded apps.

PrivacyNotes's answer
PrivacyNotes started from a simple frustration: staying organized meant scattering your life across half a dozen apps, most of which could read everything you typed and billed you monthly for the privilege. We wanted one place for notes, tasks, journals, files, and passwords, encrypted so thoroughly that the people running the servers could not read a word of it, and paid for once rather than forever. So we built the encryption first, made the keys live only on your device, and published the crypto as open core so the promise could be checked, not just believed. Everything else grew from one rule: your data is yours, and no one else's to mine.
This app checks every box for me. Clean interface, no learning curve, local-first encryption, and secure sync across all of my devices.
The biggest surprise is how many apps it replaced. Instead of juggling separate apps for notes, habits, mood, activities, and important dates, everything lives in one place now. It's made staying organized a lot simpler.
Paying once and knowing I won't lose access to my workflow because I canceled yet another subscription is incredibly refreshing. That peace of mind is worth a lot to me.
The best thing about this: No subscription model, it's a one-time fee for a lifetime license. But you can start for free with the generous freemium model. I only needed to upgrade to pro because I wanted to use the app on my phone, laptop and desktop. Highly recommended! Btw, it's a perfect markdown editor as well, not sure why they don't emphasize this more.
