your daily notepad, in every new tab.
tab pad replaces your new tab with a daily notepad. open a tab, start typing — no clicks, no account, no loading. yesterday is one scroll away.

every day you've written, one scroll away
your notes live on a single continuous timeline. scroll down through last week, last month, last year — or jump straight there with ⌘K: "two weeks ago", "next friday", "nov 12". future days are already there, waiting for plans.
markdown that stays out of the way
type plain text and it quietly becomes structure. checkboxes you click through — to-do, in progress, done — plus headings, lists, links; the syntax fades once you move on.
focus mode & privacy mode
focus — hit the target beside any day and it takes over the whole screen: no other days, no panels, just the page you're working on. privacy — one click on the lock scrambles every note into gibberish, for screen sharing and streaming.
sidebars you build yourself
the left and right rails are yours to arrange. drop in a calendar, a running list of your noted days, a live scratchpad (or several), counters for streaks and open to-dos, a to-do rollup from recent days, or a pinned note — on either side, in any order. plus a quiet margin beside every day for the side thoughts. every widget is a plain file, so your agent can add one too.
your notes never leave your computer
there is no server. tab pad requests zero browser permissions and makes zero network requests. your words are stored on your device, and only there.
- your days are plain .md files in a folder you choose — ready for obsidian, git, anything
- ai agents can read and write the same files — a generated AGENTS.md tells them exactly how
- one-click backup — export everything as a single file
your ai agent can write here too
your days are plain markdown files in a folder, so agents can work with them directly. tell claude (or any coding agent) "remind me thursday" — the task lands on thursday's page and appears in your open tab within seconds, signed, deferred while you're typing.
