Open, write, done. Raven launches in under a second. No sync spinner, no splash screen, no waiting. Your note is there before you've finished reaching for the keyboard. Every note is a plain .md file in a folder you can see. Open it in Files, search it from the terminal, drop it into Claude. No database. No export step. Just your writing, exactly where you left it. Built in SwiftUI for iPhone and Mac - not ported, not wrapped in a web view. You can feel the difference in the scrolling, the input response, the way it sits under your thumb. - - Markdown notes stored as plain .md files - Launches in under a second - Native iPhone and Mac app - Full-text search across all your notes - Nested folders and pinned notes - Works with Claude, Codex, Cursor, and filesystem MCP tools - Syncs between Mac and iPhone - No config, no plugins - it just looks right - Sign in with Apple is optional for cloud sync. Your local Markdown files stay yours. Built by one person who cares about the details.

Raven 1.45 makes browsing and editing more coherent across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. - Read Later now has clearer navigation and a useful empty state when you have not saved any articles yet. - Folder titles, Settings, and Tasks controls line up more consistently on iPad. - The iPad editor uses the available canvas more effectively. - Table editing remains usable across narrow iPhone layouts and shared Apple platforms. - Restored sign-in sessions now keep account controls, including account deletion, available in Settings.
