A quiet helper for the loudest drawer in the house

Everyone has the drawer. The pile. The folder of folders. The mail from the mailbox, the receipt in your pocket, the PDF in your downloads — scan it or drop it into one folder on your Mac, and consider it handled.

Scan it in

Bills, mail, records, PDFs. From your scanner, your phone, or your downloads folder.

It gets filed

Shoebox reads every page, works out what it is, and puts it in its place — a tidy archive of ordinary folders and notes.

Ask anything

"When does the passport expire?" Every answer cites the real document, so you can open the page and see for yourself.

約束

Local-first, and yours. Your documents are read, indexed, and searched on your machine. The archive is plain folders and Markdown notes — open it, move it, back it up like anything else you own.
