What users say

★★★★★
"Thoughtogram is basically exactly what I always needed and didn't have! I now have all my regular websites as soon as I open my browser, making it immediately faster to manage my day. Thank you Thoughtogram."
Chrome Web Store review, April 2026

An indie project

I started building Thoughtogram because I wanted a better way to use my new tab. After more than a year of refining it, I use it daily for research, planning, and capturing things I read on the web.

It's a small indie project, built by one developer in the UK. If it works for you, subscribing keeps the development going and helps make it sustainable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is my data private?
Yes. Card contents are end-to-end encrypted before they leave your browser. We can't read your boards, and neither can anyone else who shouldn't.
What happens if I uninstall the extension?
Your account and data stay safe on our servers. Reinstall any time and your boards come back. You can also export everything to Markdown before uninstalling if you want a local copy.
What if I cancel my subscription?
Your Home Board stays free forever, with all the clipping, embedding, and visual organization features. You just lose access to additional boards. No data is deleted.
Can I use Thoughtogram on my phone?
Yes. There's a Quick Capture mobile app that lets you send notes and clippings to any board. A linear column view also lets you read and reorder your cards on mobile.
How is this different from Notion, Obsidian, Heptabase, or Scrintal?
Notion and Obsidian are powerful but ask you to organize notes into hierarchies and databases. Heptabase and Scrintal are closer cousins - both visual canvas tools for thinking. Thoughtogram differs in three practical ways: it lives in your new tab (zero friction to open, every time you open the browser), the board is deliberately fixed-size so you can see everything at once instead of scrolling an infinite canvas, and it's $5/month rather than the $10-$15 those apps typically charge. Many people use Thoughtogram alongside a traditional notes app: Thoughtogram for active thinking and visual organization, the other tool for long archives.
Why a fixed-size board?
Infinite canvases let you keep adding without ever seeing what you already have. A fixed board forces you to choose what's on it - and means you can take in everything at a glance. Like a desk, not a warehouse.
