Memos is an open-source, self-hosted note-taking app built for quick capture. It is Markdown-native, lightweight, and keeps your data under your control.

• Capture quickly — A timeline-first interface keeps note-taking simple: open, write, and move on.
• Own your data — Self-host Memos on your infrastructure with no telemetry.
• Deploy anywhere — Run a single Go binary or Docker container with SQLite, MySQL, or PostgreSQL.
• Integrate freely — Build on the REST and gRPC APIs or adapt the MIT-licensed source to your needs.

docker run -d \

• Docker Compose — Recommended for production deployments.
• Kubernetes — Helm charts and manifests are available.
• Build from source — Best for development and customization.

See the deployment guide for detailed instructions.

Save pages, selected text, and images directly to your Memos instance with the official Memos Web Clipper. The extension is available for Chrome and Firefox, and lets you review each clip, choose its visibility, and customize its Markdown format before saving.
