- Worth noticing
- Handwriting recognition and search are described as working on-device, including in airplane mode.
Field notes
The product separates handwriting capture from AI interpretation: selected ink becomes structured Markdown that can be pasted into ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or another service. Its stated storage model uses each user's Google Drive, while recognition and indexing remain on-device and available offline. The homepage also specifies 120 Hz ink input, pressure and tilt support, PDF import, and vector PDF export, but marks the major platform downloads as forthcoming.
