Snapshot
Why this vendor is on watch
Local-first markdown knowledge base with bidirectional linking and powerful plugin system.
Obsidian's core app is free without sign-up. Obsidian Sync and Publish are optional paid add-ons, while the commercial license is encouraged for organizations but not required. Buy Sync only when reliable multi-device sync or shared vaults are worth avoiding a third-party sync setup.
