About Notexo
Notexo is a free, privacy-first online notepad where every URL is a note. No login, no signup, no friction — built for people who just want to write.
Our Mission
We believe writing should be instant. No onboarding flows, no pricing pages, no account walls. Just type a URL like notexo.in/my-notes and start writing immediately.
Notexo was built with a URL-first, privacy-first, and zero-friction philosophy. Your data stays yours — we don't track you, we don't sell your data, and we don't serve invasive ads. Notes auto-delete when they expire, and passwords are hashed with bcrypt.
Built by Vignesh Yadav, a developer passionate about building tools that get out of your way.
How It Works
Type Any URL
Visit notexo.in/meeting-notes and a fresh note is created instantly. No account, no setup.
Write & Edit
Use the full rich text editor with headings, tables, code blocks, and more. Everything autosaves every 1.5 seconds.
Share with Anyone
Share the URL directly, or create permission-controlled share links with view/edit access and optional expiry.
Features
Rich Text Editor
A unified block editor with toolbar, slash commands, bubble menu, tables, task lists, code blocks, and more.
Password Protection
Lock any note with a password. Passwords are hashed with bcrypt — even we can't read them.
Sharing & Permissions
Create anonymous share links, share with specific users, set view or edit permissions, and add expiry dates.
PDF Export
Download any note as a beautifully styled PDF generated server-side with Puppeteer.
Auto-Expiry
Set a TTL and notes auto-delete permanently. Visiting the URL after expiry starts a fresh note.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is Notexo free?
Yes, Notexo is completely free to use. There are no hidden fees, no premium-only features for public notes, and no credit card required. Create unlimited public notes instantly.
Do I need an account?
No. Public notes require no account at all — just visit any URL like notexo.in/my-note and start writing. An account is only needed if you want a private workspace with access controls.
How do I share a note?
Simply share the URL. For more control, create share links with view-only or edit permissions, set expiry dates, or share with specific registered users from your note settings.
Is my note private?
Public notes (notexo.in/slug) are accessible to anyone with the URL. For true privacy, create an account and use the private namespace (@username/slug), where you control who can view or edit via permissions.
What happens when a note expires?
When a note reaches its expiry date, the content is permanently deleted via TTL (time-to-live) auto-deletion. If someone visits the same URL after expiry, a fresh empty note is created.
Can multiple people edit the same note?
Yes. Public notes use a last-write-wins model — anyone with the URL can edit. Private notes support granular permission control: you can grant view or edit access to specific users.
