NotepadX
A serious text editor, everywhere
NotepadX is a free text editor for Mac, Windows, and Linux. A fast plain text editor with AI rephrasing, cross-device sync of unsaved files, and infinite local history. Download for free.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I built NotepadX after losing an unsaved scratch file one too many times. Like a lot of you, I live in a plain-text editor all day — quick notes, log files, code snippets, half-written ideas — and I kept hitting the same wall: my editor treated unsaved text as disposable, and nothing good existed on every platform I use.
So I built the editor I wanted:
✍️ Never loses your work — quit with 10 unsaved tabs, they're all back on relaunch. Every version of every file (even ones you never saved) is kept in a local history timeline you can scrub through.
🔄 Cross-device sync without an account — it syncs your session (including unsaved buffers!) through any folder you already have — iCloud, Dropbox, OneDrive. No server of ours, no sign-up, your data never touches us.
🤖 AI where it's actually useful — rephrase or refactor a selection, ghost-text autocomplete, summarize a doc. Bring your own key (Claude, GPT, Gemini, or fully-offline Ollama) — keys stay on your device.
⚡ The fundamentals are serious too: opens a 10MB log in under a second, big-file mode past 100MB, regex find & replace, 20+ languages, macros, text pipelines, six themes.
It's free — no account, no trial, no ads in the app, no telemetry. macOS, Windows, and Linux from one codebase (Android is on the way). There's also a free online version at notepadx.app/try if you want to poke at the editor before downloading.
I'd genuinely love feedback — especially on what would make you switch from your current editor. I read everything and I ship fast. 🚀
