Memos feature

A record that stays yours

You decide where your memos live. You can take them with you, with their dates and attachments.

Keep your own record, with a Markdown export whenever you want a copy.

Docker
docker run -d --name memos \  -p 5230:5230 \  -v ~/.memos/:/var/opt/memos \  neosmemo/memos:stable

Benefits

  • Zero telemetry: the Memos software sends no usage data or analytics

  • New memos default to private visibility

  • Attachments stay in the database, on local disk, or in S3-compatible storage you configure

  • Back up the database and attachment storage with your own tools

  • Export your memos and attached files as a ZIP of Markdown and JSON
