Questions about pricing?
Here are answers to the most common questions.
Yes! The app itself is completely free. All features are included at no cost. You only pay AI providers directly when you use AI features like writing assistance or semantic search.
You need an API key from an AI provider like Google, OpenAI, or Anthropic. These are easy to get from their websites. Or use Ollama to run AI locally on your computer for free.
Using Google Gemini, most users spend less than $1 per month. A typical writing action costs about $0.001. Heavy users might spend $2-5 per month. You control your own usage and costs.
Absolutely! AI Notes works great as a regular note-taking app. You can write, organize, and search your notes without any AI. Add AI features whenever you want.
We may offer a managed AI option in the future where we handle the API keys for you. But the app itself will always have a generous free tier with all core features.
Your notes are stored locally on your device first. When you use AI features, only the text you select is sent to the AI provider you choose. We never sell your data.
