On-Device AI & Privacy

Noteable's core promise is simple: your thoughts never leave your device. Here's exactly how that works.

The local AI model

Noteable uses a quantised 7B parameter language model that runs entirely in RAM. It's optimised for note-taking tasks — summarisation, connection-finding, and Q&A — and requires no internet connection after the initial download.

What data is stored?

• Notes are stored in an encrypted SQLite database on your device
• Voice recordings are transcribed locally and the audio is discarded
• Search embeddings are computed locally and stored alongside your notes
• No telemetry, no analytics, no crash reports are sent anywhere

Encryption

Your note vault is encrypted with AES-256-GCM. The encryption key is derived from your device's secure enclave and never stored in plaintext.
