| Spec score · Secure Notes Apps | 8.1 (#10) | 7.0 (#29) |
| Encryption | Notes can be encrypted in the browser per note using Argon2id and AES-GCM; the key and plaintext stay in the browser tab. | The README says notes are encrypted with AES-256-GCM before touching disk. |
| Integrations | The README lists imports from Google Keep and Standard Notes and describes Tailscale for private remote access. | The README documents FZF workflows and a first-party Neovim plugin that uses fzf-lua to browse and edit notes. |
| License | Lockpad is provided under the GNU AGPL-3.0 license. | Notr is released under the MIT License. |
| Purpose | Lockpad is a self-hosted notes app that runs on hardware you own. | Notr is an encrypted command line note-taking app with a modern TUI and pluggable sync backends. |
| Search | Full-text search across notes is powered by Postgres. | Notr supports case-insensitive and fuzzy search across notes, globally or within a notebook. |
| Support | The project states that it has no support contract, uptime commitment, or on-call operator. | The README directs users to GitHub Issues to report bugs or request features. |
