Pen and paper, minus the paper.

Ink that feels like yours

Every pen, pencil, marker and highlighter responds to pressure and tilt, tuned to how you write rather than how you draw.

  • Pens, pencils, markers and highlighters that respond to pressure and tilt
  • Bring your brushes from Procreate, Photoshop and Clip Studio, and write with them
  • Hold at the end of a stroke and it snaps into a clean line, circle or shape
  • A steadier-ink option and adjustable press-and-hold for shaky or tired hands

More than a page

A notebook page is layered, searchable and editable long after the ink is dry.

  • Layers on every page, so a sketch can sit under your notes
  • Lasso to move, resize, rotate, recolor or turn handwriting into text
  • Search the text of everything, including your handwriting
  • Stickers, photos and layers on any page

Notebooks you can hold

Decorate the front, spine and back cover, then scroll or swipe through pages like a book.

  • Covers you decorate yourself, with the Stationery Shop's planners and stickers if you like
  • Import a PDF or planner and write right on it
  • Export back to sharp, vector PDF that prints cleanly
  • Planners whose handwritten tasks show up in Today
