Craft is a note-taking & docs tool for Freelancers and Creators, offered as freemium ($10/mo). Founded in 2020. Popular alternatives include Obsidian, Evernote, Anytype.

About Craft

Craft is a document and note-taking app from Craft Docs, a company founded by Balint Orosz. It is known for a native, polished design on Mac, iPhone and iPad, won Apple's Mac App of the Year award in 2021, and also runs on the web and Windows. Documents are made of blocks that can be nested into pages, styled as cards and linked to each other with backlinks.

Beyond notes, Craft includes daily notes, tasks with scheduling, templates, an AI assistant for writing and summarizing, and one-click publishing that turns any document into a clean shareable web page. Documents work offline and sync across devices. A free plan covers light personal use, Plus unlocks unlimited blocks, storage and AI, and Family and Team plans add sharing and collaboration.

Craft suits Apple users, consultants and freelancers who want beautiful documents and client-ready pages without design work, and people who journal or plan in daily notes. Its weaknesses are relational databases, automation and integrations. Notion is far stronger for team wikis and databases, Obsidian keeps local Markdown files with a large plugin ecosystem, and Apple Notes or Bear are simpler and cheaper for plain notes. Team collaboration exists but is lighter than in Notion or Confluence, so Craft works best as a personal or small-team writing tool.
