Amplenote vs AppFlowy

Amplenote combines notes, tasks, and calendar scheduling in four modes: Jots, Notes, Tasks, and Calendar. It is available through web, Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, Chrome extension, and API access, with offline use. Users can share notes and collaborate in real time. Tasks can be placed on Amplenote’s calendar and, on Pro or higher, synchronized with Google, Outlook, or Apple calendars. Integrations also include Siri Shortcuts, IFTTT, Pipedream, and Google Drive. The service follows a freemium model with a free plan and 15-day trial. Personal is for non-commercial use and limits uploads to 5 MB; Pro permits larger uploads and unlimited devices, while Unlimited and Founder also list unlimited devices. Native desktop apps require Pro, Unlimited, or Founder, although downloadable PWAs are supported. Standard notes are not end-to-end encrypted by default, and attachments are not encrypted, including with Vault Notes.

AppFlowy is an open-source workspace for wikis and projects, with real-time collaboration and AI tools for working with content. Its listed capabilities include AI search, writing, chatbot, research and meeting notes; AppFlowy AI can brainstorm drafts, summarize or expand content, autofill columns and answer questions. The Free plan allows one collaborative workspace for up to two members and 5 GB of storage. Pro is described for small teams managing projects and team knowledge. The product lists connections such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, Google Calendar, Gmail, GitHub, Jira and Google Drive, along with other named services. Enterprise connections include SAML and OIDC SSO, SCIM, LDAP, MCP and public APIs. AppFlowy can run on customer infrastructure, in a cloud or in an air-gapped environment. For self-hosted instances, customers control where data is stored and processed, and the vendor says it has no access to the instance. Apps and access options cover Android, iOS, Linux, macOS, web, Windows and self-hosting. The pricing note lists paid access from $12.50/user/mo.
