Memos
NotesQuick notes in a private timeline on a server you run yourself.
Memos is a place to jot down thoughts as they come, without deciding first where they belong. Notes land in a timeline by date, and tags pull related notes together later. It runs on your own server, so your notes stay with you and you decide what anyone else can see.
- Markdown notes in a dated timeline, with tags and saved filter Views.
- Choose for each memo whether it stays private, is shared or is public.
- Runs from one Docker container with SQLite, MySQL or PostgreSQL.
What people use it for
Keep a daily work log
Write a memo whenever something happens, from a single sentence to a longer Markdown entry with checklists and code blocks. Each memo stays on the day it was written, so the timeline becomes a record you can scroll back through. Add hashtags such as #meeting or #decision, then save a View that filters on them.
Share notes with family or a small team
Create a Space, invite members and assign memos to it. Set each memo's audience as well, because placing a memo in a Space does not by itself make it visible to members. Comments, reactions, mentions and Space invitations collect in each person's Inbox.
Capture web pages and chat messages
Install the Memos Web Clipper for Chrome or Firefox to save a page, a selection or an image as Markdown with a link to the source. Memogram, a Telegram bot, saves your messages and images to Memos. Your own scripts and AI tools can connect through the API or the MCP server with a personal access token.
