Samepad

Same ideas, everywhere you think.

A private pad for the thought you’d otherwise lose. Write it wherever it shows up — the browser, Chrome, VS Code, your terminal or your AI assistant — and find it again anywhere.

Free. Private by default.

Already where you are

  • Web

    Capture beside whatever you're reading — the page stays put.

  • Chrome

    Tap Ctrl twice on any page. The page you were on is kept with the idea.

  • VS Code

    A pad in the sidebar, next to the file that sparked the thought.

  • Terminal

    samepad "the thought" — one line, and it's saved.

  • AI assistants

    Claude, Cursor and other MCP clients can read and add to your pad.

Built for the moment an idea shows up

One move to capture

No new page, no form to fill. Write the thought; the title, the tags and the draft take care of themselves.

Private first

Everything stays yours until you choose to share one idea. Sharing is per idea, never all or nothing.

Ideas that find each other

Related ideas link up in the background, and each one remembers what sparked it — so a thought from March still leads somewhere in November.

Share when it's ready

A public idea gets its own address. Others can build on it with a fork, and the trail back to the original stays visible.
