Our story.

Nota has been a long journey for us. Here are some of the events that got us to this point:

• 2012

  We hadn't met yet, but Emanuil had started working on the Markdown parser, Parsedown, which would later become an essential part of Nota.

• 2014

  We met through Antonio's sister, Michaela, and a couple of months later, we started working on the predecessor of Nota, Caret.

• 2015

  We left our jobs to work full-time on Caret and released version 1.0 later the same year.

• 2018

  We started working on Nota — a complete rewrite of Caret with a better focus on notes.

• 2020

  We sent an early version of Nota to friends.

• 2021

  We invited 1,000+ people to test the beta and released 10+ updates with fixes and improvements based on user feedback.
