Sync in seconds,
not minutes.
Tired of waiting for OneNote to sync? Craft syncs in under a second — with AI included free.
Which one is right for you?
Craft
Sub-second sync — no more waiting 30 seconds wondering if your notes saved
Modern, clean design — not an interface that feels stuck in 2010
AI assistant included free — no $18-21/user/mo Copilot subscription needed
Beautiful documents with covers, typography, and one-click web publishing
Native Apple Pencil support for drawing and annotation on iPad
OneNote
Free-form canvas with unlimited spatial layout is essential to you
Deep Microsoft 365 integration is required for your workplace
You need fully free unlimited storage with a Microsoft account
Handwriting-to-text conversion is a daily requirement
OneNote users consistently complain about sync delays that last 5-30 seconds, an interface that hasn't meaningfully evolved in years, and Microsoft now charging $18-21/user/mo extra for Copilot AI. Craft syncs instantly, looks modern, and includes AI free.

“ Over the years I have tested various tools such as Ulysses, OneNote and iA Writer, but none of them completely convinced me. Craft takes all requirements into account and offers seamless integration of texts, images and whiteboards.”

Câu hỏi thường gặp
For personal productivity and document creation, yes. Craft offers a cleaner, faster experience for notes, tasks, and publishing. If you rely heavily on OneNote's free-form canvas or deep Microsoft 365 integration, Craft may serve as a complement for personal work.
Writers, creators, and professionals who want beautiful, structured documents rather than free-form notebooks. Craft is fully native on Apple platforms with automatic sync and full offline access – a more polished experience than OneNote on Mac or iOS.
Both. Craft works for individuals and small focused teams. We support collaborative editing, team spaces, commenting, and shared folders. OneNote is more suited to large enterprise teams within the Microsoft ecosystem.
OneNote is free with a Microsoft account. Craft Plus starts at $5/month but includes AI assistant, web publishing, and a native Apple experience that OneNote can't match. For Apple users wanting premium features, Craft offers better value.
Publish beautiful web pages with one click, enjoy true native Apple performance, use block-based structured formatting, create collections for organized data, and get AI assistance included free. OneNote's free-form canvas is unique, but Craft's structured approach is more powerful for most workflows.
Yes. Craft works offline for writing, editing, organizing, and searching. AI features use on-device models when offline. Publishing and sharing require internet. OneNote's offline mode varies by platform and can be unreliable – especially on Mac and web where syncing is often slow.
Yes. Export your OneNote pages as PDF or Word documents, then import them into Craft. You can also copy-paste content directly. For large notebooks, export sections individually for the cleanest transfer.
Craft is built native for Apple platforms using Swift and UIKit. It integrates with Handoff, Spotlight, Siri Shortcuts, Widgets, and Apple Pencil natively. OneNote on Mac is often criticized for being slow, buggy, and lacking features compared to the Windows version.
Craft is significantly faster on Apple platforms with sub-second sync, instant launch, and smooth scrolling. OneNote on Mac and iOS can be sluggish, especially with large notebooks or during sync operations.
Craft uses Spaces, folders, and collections for flexible organization. OneNote uses a rigid Notebook → Section → Page hierarchy. Craft's approach is more flexible and scales better as your content grows.
Yes. Craft lets you publish beautiful, professional web pages with one click. No additional setup required. OneNote has no built-in publishing – you'd need to copy content to another tool.
Both support Apple Pencil, but Craft integrates handwriting more seamlessly with typed content. OneNote treats ink as separate layers, while Craft blends handwritten and typed notes naturally in the same flow.
Craft includes AI assistant in all plans at no extra cost. Microsoft Copilot requires a Microsoft 365 Copilot license ($18-21/user/month). Craft AI helps you write, edit, summarize, and organize content affordably.
If you value native Apple performance, beautiful documents, web publishing, and included AI, yes. OneNote is free but feels compromised on Apple platforms. Craft is the premium experience Apple users deserve.
Yes. Craft offers a free Education plan for students with full Plus features. The clean interface helps focus during study. Offline access is perfect for lectures. OneNote is also free for students but slower on Apple devices.
Craft is better for writers who want polished, publishable documents. Beautiful typography, distraction-free writing, and one-click publishing. OneNote is better for visual note-taking with its free-form canvas.
Craft syncs in sub-second time across all devices. OneNote sync can be slow and unreliable, especially on Mac. Many users report sync conflicts and delays with OneNote that don't exist in Craft.
Export OneNote sections as PDF or Word files. Use Craft's Import feature for Word documents. For individual pages, copy-paste works well. Move one section at a time for large notebooks.
