notesmesh demo: Apple Notes with backlinks, calendar sync, and reminders sync

Plan your day. Events sync to Calendar, todos to Reminders, [[links]] to the rest of your notes. Every link goes both ways.

What it does

A planner, a wiki, and an AI search bar, all living inside the Apple Notes you already have.

[ Plan ]

Plan your week

  • Today's Big 3 link to your quarterly goals.
  • Recurring 1:1s become a flippable linked book.
  • Daily, weekly, quarterly reviews write themselves from what you logged.
[ Link ]

Connect your notes

  • Type [[ to link any note to any other.
  • Backlinks appear at the bottom of every target. No plugin, no setup.
  • Type @ for people, dates, or events.
[ Back ]

Zero-latency back

  • Click any link and the way back is already written for you.
  • The daemon pre-caches a “Go back” line into every target before you click.
  • Wiki-style browsing. No round-trip, no waiting.
[ Sync ]

Bridge to Apple

  • Calendar events become note attachments. Both ways.
  • Todos sync to Apple Reminders. Both stay linked back.
  • Works on every folder you already have. No migration, no cloud.
[ Mirror ]

Own the markdown

  • Every note mirrors to a .md file on disk. Edit either side, both stay in sync.
  • Plain markdown, plain folder. Grep it, git it, sync it through Dropbox.
  • The Apple Notes you write in. The files you keep.
[ Ask ]

Search and extend

  • Ask questions across every note. Answers run locally on your Mac.
  • Type / to ask the AI in plain English, anywhere in a note.
  • Plug your notes into Claude, Codex, or any MCP-aware agent.
