Octarine vs Craft

Craft and Octarine are both lovely places to write. The difference is who the writing is for.

Craft makes polished documents meant to be shared: rich layouts and cards, real-time collaboration, comments, and share links, with apps on macOS, iOS, Windows, Android, and the web. AI and semantic search come with every plan. Documents live in Craft's cloud by default; storing them in a local folder turns off sharing, comments, and version history.

Octarine is for notes you keep for yourself: plain markdown files by default, linked with backlinks and a graph, synced with Git or any folder service, and paid for once instead of by subscription.
