Takt

v2 Coming soon: see the new Takt

A private workspace for serious notes and real tasks.

End-to-end encrypted. Hosted in Switzerland. Works offline.

Made for lawyers, journalists, researchers, and anyone whose work shouldn't leave their device.

One workspace, not two.

Most tools force a split: a notes app for what you think, a tracker for what you do. Takt keeps them in one place. Write a memo. Turn a paragraph into a task with a deadline. Tag all with the same vocabulary.

True E2EE: Your notes are encrypted on your device before sync.

Sync happens only after encryption. The encryption key lives with you alone. We and our hosting can't read your notes or tags. Built by David Vasella, a Swiss data protection attorney, together with his daughter.

Read the security notes

When a thought needs more than a bullet point.

Headings, quotes, and a live table of contents in the side panel. Links and backlinks show context in a drawer.

More than text.

Embed Excalidraw sketches, code blocks, quotes, images, and attachments. Link notes, see backlinks. Never lose flow.

Today, overdue, this week.

Deadlines, reminders, an agenda that groups what's due and what you're working on. Filter by tags. No second app, no second inbox.

Markdown in. Markdown out.

Format in markdown, with live rendering. Import markdown files, including from Obsidian. Export with YAML frontmatter and attachments. You're never locked in.

Catch a thought when it lands.

Take Takt with you. Quick add, agenda with your calendar items, the full note view, and widgets.

No ads. No bloat.

The app is free. Some advanced features may move to a paid plan later, but existing users will be grandfathered.
