Legend brings documents, notes, tasks, email, files, outlines, and projects into a single productivity interface. Users arrange work in Boards with multiple Panes, then switch contexts or choose Outline, grouped, List, and Calendar views. Writing and organization tools include Markdown, formatting hotkeys, an outliner, backlinks, and mirrors that connect notes with tasks. Agenda sorts tasks by priority and date, while filters can use prefixes, content, words, or tags. Legend says it syncs in real time across devices and collaborators, works offline, and resolves changes after devices reconnect. Its privacy policy describes item data as encrypted on the client before syncing, with optional user-password and document-password encryption. Gmail, Drive, and Calendar integrations run client-side, and email or file contents are not saved on Legend servers, according to the policy. Free includes 10 Panes and one plugin sync account, with unlimited documents and items. Basic costs 5.00 USD per month billed annually. The Browser Pane is not available in the mobile app, though saved links open in a browser.
