Maskpad

No account · No setup · Just a link

A notepad that lives at a URL you choose

Open maskpad.com/anything and start writing. It saves as you type, and the link is all you need to share it.

Features

Everything a scratchpad should do, nothing it shouldn't

Built for the moments you need text out of one head and into another, fast.

  1. 01

    Share by link

    Every note is just a URL. Copy it from the toolbar and send it. No invites, no accounts, no permissions to manage.

  2. 02

    Autosave as you type

    A second after you stop typing, the note is saved. A small status line always tells you where things stand.

  3. 03

    Password lock

    Set a password and readers must enter it before the content loads. Change or remove it whenever you like.

  4. 04

    Burn after reading

    Flip a note to one-view mode and it destroys itself once it has been read. Ideal for handing something over.

  5. 05

    Timed expiry

    Pick 1 hour or 24 hours and the note clears itself on schedule. Or keep it forever, which is the default.

  6. 06

    Made for code

    Paste a snippet and it stays monospaced, with line breaks and indentation exactly where you left them.
