Preparing your private, on-device workspace.
Start with a blank canvas. Your thoughts stay private, on this device.
On your other device, scan this code or type these 3 words. This creates an encrypted copy — the original stays on this device. The transfer expires in 5 minutes and disappears after it is received once.
🔒 Encrypted on this device • ⏱ Expires in 5 minutes • Disappears after one use
⚠️ Anyone who has this link during its active window can receive this one-time transfer.
Type the 3 words shown on the sending device, one word per box. Press Tab, Space, or - to move between boxes. Press Enter to receive. The relay only ever holds an unreadable, temporary bundle.
On your other device, open Vault and choose Receive a Vault Transfer, then scan this code or type these 3 words. The other device needs Sulata Note Pro or Max and an unlocked Vault. The transfer expires in 5 minutes and disappears after it is received once.
Type these 3 words on the other device if you cannot scan

Type the 3 words shown on the sending device. Nothing is downloaded until you confirm, so a transfer is never used up by mistake. Received notes are protected by this device’s Vault password.
Your thoughts, your canvas.
In a world of cloud-first apps that harvest your data and demand constant connectivity, Sulata Note is a sanctuary for your thoughts. It is a privacy-first, offline-first note-taking app built on one principle: your data belongs exclusively to you.
Every note you write is stored only on this device inside your browser’s local database. There is no account to create, no server that holds your words, and no analytics watching what you type. The app loads instantly and works perfectly without an internet connection.
When you move notes to another device with a Private Transfer, Sulata Note locks them before they leave this device. The transfer expires in 5 minutes and disappears the moment your other device picks it up.
For the notes that need more, Pro and Max add the encrypted Vault: a separate private space where titles, content, tags, colour and pinning are encrypted on this device behind one password — a password Sulata Note never stores, never transmits, and cannot recover for you.
Version — Built with ❤️ for every thought worth keeping.
Enter your license key to unlock Pro or Max features. Your key is verified once and then stored locally — the app continues to work fully offline after activation.
Current plan: Free
Deactivating frees up one activation slot on your license, allowing you to activate on another device.
Your notes are stored exclusively in your browser’s IndexedDB. If you clear site data, cookies, or browser storage, your notes will be permanently deleted from this device. There is no cloud backup.
To protect yourself, use Transfer → Export Full Backup as JSON regularly to download a backup file. You can re-import it at any time using Transfer → Import JSON Backup.
Private Transfer is a quick, one-time handoff between your own devices — not ongoing sync. When you share, your notes are locked on this device first, then a short-lived 3-word code is shown. The receiving device scans the QR code or types those 3 words to unlock the notes locally.
The relay never receives your raw 3-word code or your note contents. The transfer expires after 5 minutes and disappears the moment the receiving device downloads it. Sharing creates a copy — your original notes are never removed.
You have several options. Single-note Private Transfer is available to everyone, including Free users.
Sulata Note is a Progressive Web App (PWA). On iOS (Safari), tap the Share button and select “Add to Home Screen”. On Android (Chrome), tap the menu and select “Install app”.
The Free tier gives you unlimited notes, rich text editor, 7 color themes, search, JSON backups, and single-note Private Transfer.
Pro adds Pinned Notes, Folders to organise your notes, and full-library Private Transfer across up to 5 devices. One-time purchase.
Max is the highest tier with everything in Pro — including Folders — plus up to 10 devices and an exclusive animated prismatic avatar badge. One-time purchase.
Yes. Your license is verified once when you activate it, then stored locally in IndexedDB. Pro and Max features remain fully accessible whether you are online or offline.
Tags are free on every tier. You can add as many as 20 tags to a note from the tag field beside the note title. Tags are saved with the note and travel with it through JSON backups and Private Transfer.
Search looks at tags as well as titles and note text, so typing part of a tag finds every note carrying it — there is no special search syntax to learn.
If a note carries a tag that matches a folder’s name, that folder shows the note as a tagged reference under a separate heading, while the note stays exactly where it lives. Nothing is moved and nothing is duplicated.
Each folder shows a breakdown of how many notes it actually holds, how many are tagged references, and the total you can see. Deleting a folder only ever affects the notes it genuinely holds — tagged references are never touched. Renaming a folder never renames your tags.
The Vault is a separate private space for Pro and Max, where note titles, content, tags, colour and pinning are encrypted on your device behind one password. It has its own list, its own search, its own transfer, and its own encrypted backup files.
Open the Vault section and choose How the Vault Works for the full guide.
Then the Vault notes cannot be read. Sulata Note cannot recover a forgotten Vault password — there is no reset, no recovery code, and no back door. That is exactly why the Vault is private, and it is why you are asked to confirm you understand before creating one.
Choose a password you will remember, and keep an encrypted Vault backup somewhere safe.
Because an ordinary JSON backup is a plain, readable file. Putting Vault notes in it would defeat the point of the Vault. Instead the Vault has its own Export Encrypted Vault Backup action, which produces a separate encrypted file protected by a backup-specific password you choose during export.
The backup password may differ from your Vault password. Sulata Note does not store it and cannot recover it, so the exact selected password is required to import that file. Restoring on a device without a Vault uses the backup password for the newly created Vault; importing into an existing unlocked Vault does not change that Vault’s password.
Changing your Vault password later does not change the password required by backup files you exported earlier.
No. Receiving Vault notes requires Pro or Max and an unlocked Vault on the receiving device. If a Vault link is opened on a Free device, or on a device with no Vault, Sulata Note explains what is needed and does not use up the transfer — it stays valid until it expires.
If you want a note to leave the Vault, use Move Out of Vault first. You will be told clearly that it will no longer be encrypted.
Your Vault is preserved and becomes read-only. You can still unlock it, read your notes, export an encrypted backup, lock it, or delete it. Creating and editing Vault notes, moving notes in or out, and Vault transfers are unavailable until your license is active again. Nothing is deleted because a license lapses.
After 15 minutes without meaningful activity, after the app has been hidden for 5 minutes, and always on reload or browser restart. You can also lock it yourself at any time.
Because the Vault key is only ever held in memory, an edit that has not yet been saved at the moment of locking or reloading cannot be recovered. Sulata Note saves Vault notes quickly and saves immediately when the app goes into the background to keep that window as small as possible.
Vault notes are deliberately kept separate from ordinary notes, folders and tags. A note is either an ordinary note or a Vault note, never both, so a Vault note never appears in an ordinary list, folder, tagged-reference section, search result, or ordinary backup.
