Tufn is a free, minimalist all-in-one productivity app that combines notes, tasks, a digital canvas, and a calendar in a single clean interface built for deep work and sustained focus. No subscriptions, no paywalls.
Yes — completely, genuinely free. No free tier with a "Pro" upsell, no credit card required, no ads, no data selling. Productivity tools should be accessible to everyone. Free on every platform, forever. Voluntary donations keep development going, but they're never required.
Most productivity tools suffer from feature bloat — they try to do everything and end up doing nothing particularly well. Tufn is built around a single conviction: the best tool is one that gets out of your way. Minimal interface, maximal focus. Completely free, forever.
v1.0 is available on Windows, macOS, and Linux. iOS and Android apps are in progress and will be submitted to the App Store and Google Play. A web version is also planned.
Your notes, tasks, and data are stored locally on your device. Cloud sync is opt-in and uses end-to-end encryption — your data is encrypted before it ever leaves your device. We literally cannot read it. See our Privacy Policy.
