BoringNote

Speak or type, take notes like chatting

Freemium Personal Knowledge Management

Overview

BoringNote is an AI-powered chat-style notebook for macOS that lets you capture ideas through voice or text in a conversational format. Speak in over 100 languages with custom dictionary support for names and technical terms, or type quick thoughts — every entry flows naturally like a chat thread with follow-ups, comments, images, and emoji. AI features let you summarize notes, rewrite content, extract to-dos, and run custom prompts. A toolbar quick-capture button and background voice recording make it easy to capture thoughts without switching context. Notes sync via iCloud and can be organized with categories and pinning.
