Owldo — Data Portability

Bring your thoughts.
Leave the bloat behind.

Switching productivity tools shouldn't feel like moving countries. Owldo is built on open, portable standards so you can import your existing notes in seconds and never worry about vendor lock-in.

Our data ownership promise

Most modern apps lock your writing into proprietary JSON blobs or cloud-only databases to keep you subscribed. We reject that philosophy.

Standard Markdown: Headings, links, checklists, and code blocks follow the CommonMark specification. What you put in is what you get out.

Local SQLite Storage: All imported content lives on your device first in a lightning-fast local SQLite database. It works offline without a network connection.

Full Export Anytime: If you ever choose to leave Owldo, one click exports your entire workspace back to plain Markdown and folders.
