SourceInk's welcome screen on a slate page: Welcome to SourceInk, a page for your thoughts, a canvas for your ideas, with Start writing and Start drawing (no AI) buttons, each marked Sends to: nowhere.

Make a little room for your next idea

Everything below is in the version on the Microsoft Store today.

Write, draw or type

Choose black, aged paper, parchment or slate. Add guides, pick your ink, place text on a sketch and export your work. The quick guide is always one press of F1 away.

You choose when to save

Ink fade and Auto-save switches sit right on the page toolbar, with Save page and Discard scratch beside them. Ctrl+S saves deliberately.

Share a drawing fast

In Draw, Copy picture puts your artwork on the clipboard for a message, document or post without creating a journal page. Export starts with a PNG picture.

Private by default

Your pages are stored on your PC. There's a Windows Hello lock, and no account to create. Read the privacy policy.

AI only when it helps

Get a reply to your writing or feedback on a drawing. Connect a local Ollama model, sign in to OpenRouter for its free-model route, or use your own compatible service.

You see where it goes

Before anything is sent, a “Sends to” line names the destination. Cloud content goes only to the service you approve; that provider's privacy terms, limits and any charges apply.

Free, with an optional one-time unlock

Your everyday notebook and canvas are free. The unlock is only about AI.

Questions

Do I need an account?

No. You can start writing or drawing right away. Cloud AI services you choose to connect may have their own accounts.

Does it work without AI?

Yes. Writing, drawing, undo, export, the Windows Hello lock and your locally stored pages all work without AI and without the unlock.

Where does my writing go?

It's saved on your PC. When you ask for an AI reply, the “Sends to” line tells you where it goes first. With a local Ollama model, it stays on your PC. The privacy policy has the details.

What PCs does it run on?

Windows PCs with x64 or Arm64 processors, installed from the Microsoft Store.
