Project overview
A premium tablet notes experience purpose-built for iPad Pro: folder hierarchy in a left rail, rich text formatting (bold, italic, lists, inline code), full-text search, and a built-in sketch pad with smooth SVG strokes. Designed around Apple Pencil affordances and the iPad Pro form factor — runs in a real iPad Pro 13 device frame in the browser.
The brief
Target client
Creative-tool startups, illustrators, journalists, education companies, and any team building for tablets first.
Business problem
Most notes apps are phone apps stretched to a tablet — wasting the screen, the Pencil, and the form factor.
Business value
A first-class iPad app users open daily because it feels like it was designed for the device, not ported to it.
