About Anytype
Anytype is the open-source, privacy-first workspace that puts you in complete control of your data. It's a safe haven for your notes, tasks, and knowledge—working offline, syncing peer-to-peer, and never storing your data on corporate servers.
Privacy by Design
Local-First: All your data lives on your devices, not in the cloud. Work offline without missing a beat.
End-to-End Encryption: Your data is encrypted before it ever leaves your device. Only you hold the keys.
No Lock-In: Export your data anytime in standard formats. Your information belongs to you, period.
Open Source: Anyone can audit the code to verify security claims.
All-in-One Workspace
Anytype replaces multiple tools with one integrated platform:
| Tool | Anytype Replacement |
|---|---|
| Notion | Notes and databases |
| Obsidian | Knowledge graph and linking |
| Trello | Kanban boards and tasks |
| Airtable | Relational databases |
| Dropbox | File storage and sync |

Collaboration
