# Harbor

> Harbor (harbor.my) is a private, cross-platform second brain and Evernote
> alternative — notes, documents, scans, and recordings, searchable with OCR,
> optionally end-to-end encrypted, and always exportable as HTML, Markdown, or
> Evernote ENEX. Native apps for Mac, Windows, iPhone, iPad, and Android, plus
> an offline-capable web app, a Web Clipper for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and
> Safari, a CLI, and an MCP server.
> One paid plan: $9.99/month or $99/year, with a written 3-year price lock.
> Free to start. Evernote users can import their ENEX export in one step.

Harbor has no built-in AI on purpose: it is open by design (REST API, CLI,
agent skill, and MCP server) so users connect the AI they already pay for.
