Send someone your notes without either of you making an account
The awkward part of sharing notes is rarely the writing. It is that the tool wants you to have an account, and then wants the person reading to have one too. Here the reader clicks a link and reads. That is the whole flow.
Write something to sendHow it works
- 1
Write the notes
Paste something you already have, or start from a template for meeting notes, a task list or a readme.
- 2
Send the view link
The person on the other end needs nothing. No account, no app, no extension — it opens in whatever browser they already have.
- 3
Keep the edit link
The two links do different jobs. The one you share is read-only; the one you keep is the only way to change or delete the notebook.
Let them write back
Readers can leave comments on a page without signing up. If you would rather they edit directly, one switch opens the notebook to anyone holding the link.
Lock it when it matters
Add a password to the view link, freeze the notebook read-only, or set it to delete itself the first time it is opened.
Set a deadline
Notes disappear after ten days unless you say otherwise, so a link you sent about last month's meeting does not sit around forever.
Questions people ask
- Does the person receiving my notes need an account?
- No. They open the link and read. There is nothing to install and no sign-up prompt at any point.
- Can I stop people editing what I send?
- That is the default. The link you share is read-only. Editing requires the separate secret link that only you hold, unless you deliberately open the notebook up to everyone.
- Can I password-protect notes I share?
- Yes. Add a password when you create the notebook or later from settings, and readers are asked for it before they see anything.
- Can I take a shared note back?
- Yes. Delete the notebook from settings and the link stops working immediately. You can also set it to expire on a date, or to delete itself after a single read.
