Amplenote vs Anytype
Both stand on notes apps. Which one you can start free with, which one lets you read the code, and what each costs once you pay.
Choose Amplenote if you want notes, tasks, and calendar scheduling with offline access, collaboration, and calendar connections. Check the plan requirements if you need the native desktop app, larger uploads, calendar syncing, or publishing; also note that standard notes are not end-to-end encrypted by default and attachments are not encrypted.

Anytype combines structured editing, databases, offline use, and device-focused privacy. Its free plan lowers the entry barrier, while API users should consider the documented stability limitation of v2.
