A license that respects you

Yours to keep.
Updates by choice.

We don’t like subscriptions that make your software stop working when you stop paying. With Notere, the features you pay for stay unlocked. Your notes stay accessible. Renewing is always your choice.

A free trial will be available when early access starts. Join the waitlist to be notified when you can try Notere.

The license options below are for personal use. Commercial use requires a separate commercial license.

During early access

Lifetime updates

When early access starts, a personal license with lifetime updates will be available as a one-time purchase. It will include updates after early access ends, too.

One purchase. Keep getting updates.

After early access

A year of updates

Your purchase unlocks the current features and includes all updates released over the next 12 months. Every feature unlocked in that time stays yours.

Keep your features. Renew when you choose.

What optional really means

Buy on day one. Cancel renewal on day one.
Keep the whole year.

This is how the year-of-updates license works, even if you cancel automatic renewal on the day you buy it.

  1. Day 1

    Buy and unlock

    Your purchased features are yours to keep. Cancel renewal if you like; it only stops the next payment.

  2. The next 12 months

    Keep getting updates

    Your full paid year continues. Features added during this period become permanently unlocked, too.

  3. After your year

    Keep using Notere

    Keep working with everything you unlocked. Renew for more updates if you want them, or carry on without another payment.

Canceling renewal never takes away what you bought. Your unlocked features and access to your data do not expire with your update period.

A few things worth making clear

Can I use Notere commercially?

Commercial use requires a separate commercial license. The lifetime-updates and year-of-updates options described on this page are personal licenses.

Is this a subscription?

Only if you want automatic renewal for updates. You pay for software you can keep using. An optional subscription renews your update period; it is never required to keep using the features you already unlocked or to access your notes.

What happens when I stop paying?

You keep using Notere with every feature you unlocked, including those added during your paid update period. After that period ends, later updates require a new purchase. There is no renewal required to continue using what you already have.

Can I renew later?

Yes. You can keep using your unlocked features and choose to buy another year of updates when you want what’s new. Keeping a subscription running is optional.

Does the early-access license become yearly after launch?

No. If you buy the lifetime-updates license during early access, you keep lifetime updates after early access ends. The year-of-updates license is for purchases made after early access.

Will my notes ever be held behind a payment?

No. Notere never locks access to your data because you stop paying. Your notes are plain Markdown files in storage you control, and you can open them with other tools, too. Your data belongs to you, whether or not you buy a license.

Support the work. Keep your freedom.

Your purchase funds Notere’s development. We want to earn your next purchase by making the app better, without making you pay to keep using what you already bought.
