Everything you’re carrying,in one calm place.
The margin of a page is where you note what matters without disturbing the text. Margin is that space for the rest of your life — tasks, notes, journal, habits, money — set down so your mind doesn’t have to hold them.
See it in one screen
One workspace, one system. This is the home screen — your whole day at a glance.
A day with Margin
The pieces aren’t separate apps bolted together — they’re one rhythm.
- 7:30
A thought lands in the inbox
The day’s first idea shows up before you’re ready. One keystroke captures it — sort it later.
- 9:00
Open Today
Three things to do, your routines already listed. Plan the block, start the work.
- 1:00
Log what you shipped
A quick line in the day log as you go — the trail you’ll be glad to have at standup.
- 4:00
Record the loan
You covered a colleague’s lunch. Mark it borrowed so your balance still tells the truth.
- 9:30
A page before bed
The journal streak nudges; the prompt helps when the page is blank.
- Sunday
The weekly review
A week of small entries turns back into a picture of where things went.
Six tools, one system
Each would be its own app. Built to work together, so nothing falls between them.
Tasks & routines
A calendar you actually plan in. Daily routines that ask for today — and never nag you about the days you missed.
Thoughts
A running timeline of notes and revisions for an idea, instead of one document that goes stale.
Journal
A page a day, with a streak that keeps you honest and a prompt when it’s blank.
Review
Weekly and monthly check-ins that turn a pile of activity back into perspective.
Finance
Spending, earning, budgets, recurring bills, and money you’ve lent — every number real-time.
Vault
A zero-knowledge password store. Encrypted in your browser; the server only holds ciphertext.
One tab instead of five
Margin covers what you’d otherwise scatter across separate subscriptions — and keeps them in step.
- a notes app
- a to-do app
- a budget tracker
- a habit tracker
- a password manager
Made to get out of your way
Capture in two keystrokes
Press C anywhere to drop a thought into your inbox. Sort it later — or don’t.
Keyboard-first
⌘K to search everything, quick-add for today’s log and tasks, no reaching for the mouse.
One place, not eight tabs
Notes, plans, money, and passwords under one calm roof, sharing one design.
Yours to keep
Export a full backup of everything, any time. No lock-in, no exceptions.
Your data stays yours
A tool you trust with everything has to earn it. Here’s the deal.
Zero-knowledge vault
Passwords are encrypted in your browser with a key from your master password. The server only ever holds ciphertext it can’t read.
Full export, any time
One click gives you a complete, readable copy of everything. Leave whenever you like and take it all with you.
Quiet by default
No feeds, no engagement loops, no notifications competing for your attention. It waits for you to come back.
Keep the middle of the page for the work. Let everything else live in the margin, close at hand and never in the way.
No feed deciding what you see. No streak keeping score. No red badges. A quiet tool that simply waits for you to come back.
