Inkdrop is a Markdown-based note-taking app built specifically for developers, first launched in 2016 by independent developer Takuya Matsuyama. It is designed around writing and organizing technical notes, with an emphasis on code snippets, syntax highlighting, and a distraction-free Markdown editor.
Unlike many general-purpose note apps, Inkdrop is a one-person, bootstrapped product. It runs natively across desktop and mobile, syncing notes through the developer's own cloud service so notes stay available offline and across devices.
The core editor supports multi-cursor editing, line numbers, and syntax highlighting across many programming languages, making it well suited to storing code snippets alongside written notes. Notes can be organized into nestable notebooks, tagged, and pinned to the top for quick access.
Inkdrop also ships with web clipper extensions for Chrome and Firefox, note sharing and export to HTML, PDF, or Markdown, task status tracking within notes, and a plugin system with more than 100 community plugins and themes for customizing the editor. A newer addition integrates AI assistance through an MCP server connection.
Inkdrop is sold as a single Basic subscription plan rather than multiple tiers. Billed monthly it costs 9.98 dollars per month, and billed annually it works out to 8.31 dollars per month, a roughly 15 percent discount.
The subscription includes cloud sync across all supported platforms, unlimited notes, and 30GB of storage, with no setup or hidden fees. New users get a 30-day free trial before any charge is applied.
