Q & A

The stuff you'll want to know before hooking your tablet up.


Why we built this

remarkdown is built by Ploton Labs, Inc. — a small team that thinks paper still matters. We use reMarkables ourselves and wanted a way to push our AI-drafted notes (meeting summaries, brainstorm dumps, reading lists) to the tablet without a clunky export. So we built it.

Free is and stays free. Pro adds the integrations that push to you when you're not at a screen. Questions? support@remarkdown.org.


Questions
Where are my documents stored? On your reMarkable cloud, not ours

On your reMarkable cloud. Same place the official apps put your files. When your AI pushes a doc, we convert it to a native rM notebook in memory, send it to your tablet's cloud, and we're done.

The content doesn't get written to anything we own.

What does remarkdown keep about me? Email, an encrypted token, and an audit log

Three things, and they all show up on your dashboard somewhere:

  • Your email, from sign-in.
  • An encrypted device token your reMarkable handed us when you paired. Only the worker can decrypt it.
  • The audit log of tool calls. What tool was called, when, and what the document was called.

No document contents. No analytics. No trackers.

What about my reMarkable password? We never see it

Pairing uses the 8-character one-time code my.remarkable.com generates for any new device. You paste the code in, we trade it for a per-device token, encrypt that, and toss the code. Your password never enters the picture.

Why is Free actually free? We built it for us, figured you'd want it too

We built remarkdown for ourselves and the hosting bill is small enough that we can cover it for everyone. Nothing in Free is gated, no card needed.

Pro exists for the integrations — those have real per-user costs (AI runtime, mail polling, calendar syncs) and need to be paid for.

Is my tablet safe? Same API the official apps use

Yes. remarkdown only uses the reMarkable cloud sync API. Same one the official rM apps use. Nothing touches the device directly. No firmware mods, no SSH, no root.

The only thing we store on our side is your device sync token — encrypted at rest and used solely to push and pull files via the official API. Delete your account and the token is gone.

What can the AI actually do on my tablet? Three tools, that's it

Three things:

  • List the documents on your tablet.
  • Push a markdown doc and have it appear as a native, handwriting-editable notebook.
  • Read an existing notebook back as markdown.

The AI doesn't get a shell, a filesystem, or any path to your other reMarkable data. If I ever add a new tool, it'll be listed here.

Can I delete my data? Yes, self-serve from your account page

Two steps if you want a full wipe.

  1. Click Disconnect on the dashboard. That revokes the device token, so remarkdown can't talk to your tablet anymore.
  2. Then head to auth.remarkdown.org/account and use the Delete account button. That removes your email, your tokens, and the audit log on our side.
