CollaNote

Freenotes offers a digital note-taking experience that blends the feel of writing on paper with powerful AI enhancements. You get realistic pen strokes that mimic lifelike handwriting as you sketch or take notes, along with tools like handwriting-to-text conversion, stickers, and various brush styles. Your notes sync via iCloud and multi-cloud backups. Freenotes supports PDF annotation, letting you mark up, highlight, and translate text directly in your documents; you can also insert hyperlinks to other pages or external web content. It enables picture-in-picture video mode and split-screen support so you can take notes while watching course videos or lectures. With its built-in AI assistant, you can take a screenshot or upload a document and receive instant answers or content summaries. To stay organized, notes can be grouped into folders, and a quick search lets you locate what you need fast.

Carbo is an application for people who love handwriting. Just use your favorite pen and paper as you usually do, without any constraint. Carbo will let you capture, edit, and organize your notes, design sketches, and whiteboard drawings, bringing handwriting into the digital age. Your digital notebook is now available on Mac, along with iPhone & iPad. Built on Mac Catalyst with Optimized for Mac technology (macOS 11 Big Sur), Carbo 2 brings a true Mac experience. Carbo now makes the most of each Apple device: iPhone can be used to capture notes on the go, iPad and Apple Pencil can be used to create notes on the device, and finally, the Mac is used to access, edit, and use these in a productive setup. Carbo introduces a unique pixel-free technology that preserves all the expressiveness of the original drawing. Carbo's hybrid capture and rendering method, halfway between bitmap and vector, allows gorgeous visualization of handwritten contents, especially on Retina displays.
