Owldo for Journalists

Every story’s notes and follow-ups, in one fast place.

Reporting produces notes and leads faster than any tool can file them, and the follow-ups scatter across apps. Owldo keeps each story’s notes and its next steps together, captured fast and stored offline.

A Space per story or beat

Interview notes, background, and the "call the second source" task live in one Space per story. Pick a story back up and the thread is intact.

Capture in the field

Owldo is offline-first and opens instantly, so a note taken in a basement, a courthouse, or a dead zone is saved locally and syncs later — the connection is never a dependency.

Own your notes

Local-first storage means your reporting lives on your device and syncs only when you choose, with export anytime and end-to-end encryption on the roadmap.
