Overview & Highlights

Major Deal Highlights

  • Notes saved as local files, your own cloud, or encrypted Elasticnote cloud
  • Block editor with Markdown, LaTeX, and code, plus Kanban, calendar, and diagrams
  • Local, Ollama, or bring-your-own-key AI with a permission-controlled MCP server

Elasticnote is a privacy-first, local-first note-taking web app. You can keep notes as files in a folder on your own computer (in desktop Chrome, Edge, or Opera), in your own Dropbox, Google Drive, or GitHub, or in Elasticnote's encrypted cloud, which uses SSL in transit and AES-256 at rest in an Australian data center (an EU data center is planned). Local use works without creating an account. It runs in the browser, installs as a PWA on desktop or mobile, and has free native Windows and Linux apps plus browser extensions for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox.

The editor is a Notion-style block editor with full Markdown, LaTeX, and code support and version history. Around it sit a calendar with tasks and daily notes, Kanban taskboards, Elastic Diagram for workflow diagrams, and research tools with citations. AI can run locally, through Ollama, or with your own API key, and a permission-controlled MCP server exposes documents, Kanban tasks, and the calendar to AI clients. Google and Microsoft Calendar integrations are listed on the vendor site.

The DealMirror deal is a single tier, Tier 1 at $29 one-time (listed against $149), with unlimited notebooks and files, Markdown, LaTeX, and code, calendar, tasks, and diagrams, local folder and bring-your-own storage, the Pro tools (AI Reviews, Research, Terminal), premium PDF export, collaboration, and priority support. Access is lifetime, codes must be redeemed within 60 days, and DealMirror gives a 30-day refund (60 days for Prime members). Elasticnote also sells Pro Lifetime directly for $29 and Pro Monthly for $5, and has a free plan.

Pros, Cons & Verdict

Our honest editorial opinion to help you decide before you buy.

The Good (Pros)

  • Reviewers value local storage for keeping notes private
  • No account needed for local use, per a Product Hunt commenter
  • GitHub sync, Kanban boards, and diagrams praised by a DealMirror reviewer
  • Reviewers describe it as simple and easy to use

Considerations (Cons)

  • All 6 DealMirror reviews are one-line 5-stars posted at launch
  • No written reviews yet on G2, Capterra, or Product Hunt
  • Local folder saving needs desktop Chrome, Edge, or Opera
  • No native macOS or iOS app; those platforms use the PWA
  • Cloud data sits in Australia; the EU data center is only planned
LTD Explorer verdict

Our verdict

Worth it

Elasticnote is worth it for students, developers, and privacy-minded note-takers who want Markdown notes stored as their own files, and Tier 1 at $29 is the only tier; it costs the same as buying Pro Lifetime directly, so DealMirror mainly adds its 30-day refund. Independent reviews are close to nonexistent, so try the free plan first, and

Skip if:you rely on Safari, Firefox, or a native Mac or iPhone app for local file storage.
