About

Scratchboard is a Windows desktop organizer for storing and retrieving frequently used information. It arranges text in a hierarchical tree, allowing users to keep related details in separate branches and quickly locate them with search and bookmarks. Users can copy a branch’s text to the clipboard with a double-click, which can help when entering recurring information into forms or other applications. Editing tools include search and replace, macros, and spell checking. Scratchboard also supports encryption and password protection for stored information, along with interface skins. It can be used to organize reference notes, account details, software keys, contact information, and reusable text in one structured workspace. A free trial is available, and the product is offered as a paid Windows application.
