Send a thought to yourself.

Tap. Type. It's in your inbox.

What is Capture?

Capture is a minimal mobile and web app for quickly emailing a thought to yourself. When an idea strikes, open the app, type your thought, and it's instantly sent to your own Gmail inbox. No folders, no categories, no complexity — just a fast way to capture thoughts before they disappear.

How it works

How Capture uses your Google account

Capture uses Google Sign-In to authenticate you and requests the gmail.send scope to send emails on your behalf. This is the only Google permission the app uses — it cannot read, modify, or delete your emails.

Your data is sent directly from the app to the Gmail API. There is no backend server. No data is stored, collected, or shared with third parties.
