Write the thought when it appears. You do not have to choose a notebook, folder or hierarchy before saving it.

Onuri is built for the everyday loop of note-taking: capture a thought quickly, let the app recognise useful connections as you type, and find it again later through search or related people, places, dates and topics.

A simpler note-taking workflow
Capture first. Organise less. Find things again.
Instead of deciding where every thought belongs before you write it, Onuri lets you capture first. It recognises useful entities in the text, builds connections automatically, and gives you multiple ways to return to an idea later.
Connections appear as you write
Onuri recognises people, places, dates and topics in your writing so related notes can become discoverable without hand-building links or tag systems.
Search the words you remember
Use text search when you remember a phrase, or follow a recognised connection when you remember the person, place, date or topic instead.
Keep the workflow across devices
When iCloud sync is enabled, Apple CloudKit keeps your notes available across your Apple devices without requiring an Onuri-operated notes server.
Leave with your notes
Export in TXT or CSV when you want an independent copy, an archive, or a way to use your writing in another tool.
Insights are optional
The capture, connection, search, sync and export workflow works in the free app. Premium adds expanded Insights, Ongoing and Done statuses, additional themes and matching app icons for people who want them.
Zero tracking
The app does not track your note-taking.
Inside the Onuri app there are no ads, analytics SDKs or tracking. Notes live on-device and, when sync is enabled, in your personal iCloud through Apple CloudKit. This statement refers to the app; the public website may use separate site analytics.

- No analytics
- No tracking

Free vs. Premium
Free note-taking, optional deeper analysis.
The everyday note-taking workflow stays available in the free app. Optional Premium adds expanded Insights, Ongoing and Done statuses with filtering, five additional themes and matching alternate app icons rather than putting basic capture or search behind a subscription.

FAQ
Questions about the Onuri note-taking workflow
Do I need folders or manual tags to use Onuri?
No. You can capture notes without first choosing a folder or building a tag system. Onuri recognises people, places, dates and topics automatically so you can rediscover related notes later.
Can I still search by ordinary text?
Yes. Automatic connections complement normal text search; they do not replace it. You can search for words or phrases whenever that is the quickest route back to a note.
How does iCloud sync work?
Onuri uses Apple CloudKit and your personal iCloud account for sync. Your notes are not sent to an Onuri-operated notes server; Apple’s iCloud infrastructure handles synchronization between your devices.
What does Premium add to the workflow?
Premium adds expanded Insights such as momentum, streaks, recurring themes, people and place patterns, semantic clusters and strongest connections, plus Ongoing and Done statuses, additional themes and matching app icons. Basic note capture, search, filters, related entries, sync and export remain available in the free app.
Does the Onuri app contain ads or tracking?
No. The Onuri app contains no ads, analytics SDKs or tracking in either the free or Premium experience.
What devices are supported?
Onuri requires iOS 17.6 or later on iPhone.
