Scope verdict

Ownership reviewed, controller unresolved

This service remains visible for context, but it is not counted or recommended as a European-controlled option.

How we classify services

Supernotes is a note taking app built by a team of two based in London. Notes are short cards that can be tagged, nested, linked and shared, and you can view them as a list, grid, columns, a graph, a map, a table or as flashcards with spaced repetition. Apps cover macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, iOS and the web.

The editor handles extended Markdown, LaTeX equations and a wide array of keybindings, with a focus on fast syncing and easy sharing. The interface exists in several European languages thanks to community translations, and the founders are active on the community forum. As a European alternative to US note apps, it suits people who prefer many small linked notes.

Pricing

The free Starter plan includes the core features, cross device sync, collaboration and publishing, starting with 100 cards that can be extended through achievements or referrals. Paid Unlimited plans remove the card limit and add AI features, with discounts for longer commitments.

Why this matters

Published MX records route incoming business email through Google Workspace. Correspondent details and message content can therefore enter this non-European provider's systems; MX does not reveal the configured storage region.
