Windows 10 / 11

Write. Draw. Run.
All on the same page.

Nablix is a local-first notebook for Windows. Markdown, handwritten ink, runnable code and math — tools that used to live in separate apps, folded into a single page. No account, no cloud.

The actual Nablix interface: a Markdown note with math, handwriting and a runnable code block
Features

Stop switching tools.

Notes, whiteboard, LaTeX editor, REPL — the focus you lost jumping between them comes back when they share one page.

Markdown you edit in place

Slash commands, tables, toggles, columns, a table of contents. However rich the editing, what is saved is a plain .md file you can open anywhere.

Handwriting, right on the page

Drop a canvas anywhere in a note and write with your pen — or open a full-page whiteboard. Smooth, pressure-aware ink.

Code that actually runs

Run Python, TypeScript and more inside the page and keep the output right below the block. Every page has its own workspace folder, terminal included.

Math, and a glossary that grows

KaTeX with custom macros for fast math. Terms you define collect into a glossary automatically and pop up on hover from any page.

See how pages relate

A local embedding model measures how close your pages are in meaning and draws them as a constellation. Search is semantic too, and once the model has been fetched the first time, all of it runs offline.

Your own AI keys, extended by MCP

Plug in your OpenAI or Anthropic API key for chat and inline completion. A built-in MCP server lets tools like Claude read and write your notes.

Ink × Math

Math at the speed of your hand.

When typing cannot keep up with thinking, just draw. Handwritten formulas are converted to KaTeX and set beautifully on the page.

  • Inline canvas — a handwriting block between paragraphs
  • Handwriting → LaTeX — AI turns your strokes into a math block
  • KaTeX everywhere — inline math, math blocks, custom macros
  • Math editor panel — edit the source while watching it render

Run

A small laboratory inside your notes.

A code block is not a screenshot of work — it is the work. Try, fix, and keep the result next to your thinking.

  • Multi-language runners — Python, JavaScript / TypeScript, C / C++, Go and more
  • Inline output — results right under the block, re-run any time
  • Per-page workspace — each page has its own folder and terminal
  • Runs locally — your machine, your toolchain, nothing uploaded

Connect

Notes that become a network.

Definitions live across pages. The more you write, the more your glossary grows — and the map shows how everything relates.

  • Definition blocks — reference a term from any page, hover for the card
  • Glossary view — every definition in one place, organized by tags
  • Page links — link notes directly and jump between them
  • Page map — local semantic search draws related pages as a constellation

AI × MCP

AI, under your control.

Nablix has no AI subscription and no middleman server. Bring your own OpenAI or Anthropic key, or connect the agent you already use via MCP.

  • Chat that knows the page — conversation grounded in the open note
  • Inline completion — suggestions as you type (Pro)
  • Built-in MCP server — external tools like Claude Code can read, edit, even create graph views
  • Explicit permissions — folder access and page creation only after you approve an in-app dialog

No account. No cloud. No telemetry.

Nablix talks to the internet in exactly four cases: your AI calls (your key, your provider), license activation (Lemon Squeezy), update checks (GitHub) and a one-time download of the search model (Hugging Face). That is the entire list — and the privacy policy is short enough to actually read.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Windows says 'unknown publisher' — why?

Early builds are not yet code-signed (a signing certificate is planned before 1.0). Every installer is built automatically from tagged source by GitHub Actions, and you can inspect each release on the releases page. Click 'More info' → 'Run anyway' to proceed.

Which platforms are supported?

Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit) today. The codebase is cross-platform and a macOS build is planned once the Windows version is rock solid.

Where is my data stored?

In ordinary folders on your own disk — pages are files you can open, back up, sync or export with any tool you like. Nothing is uploaded to us. There is no 'us' server at all.

Do I need an AI subscription?

No. The recommended way to use AI with Nablix is the MCP integration: connect an assistant you already have — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Antigravity — and it works with your notes directly. There is also a built-in copilot that takes your own OpenAI or Anthropic API key, but it is far more limited and is no longer the recommended path. Nothing in Nablix depends on AI: every other feature works with no key and no assistant.

What is the MCP integration?

Nablix ships a built-in MCP server, so tools like Claude Code, Codex, Cursor and Antigravity can read and edit your notes as first-class context. Access is scoped to the page and workspace you currently have open — nothing else is exposed. You can also mark a page as off-limits to AI, by right-clicking it in the sidebar. That page and everything filed under it can then no longer be read or changed by any AI tool, the built-in copilot included.
