The first public build of NotepadAI — a Notepad replacement with a language model wired into the editor.

Select text, press Ctrl+K, describe the change, and it rewrites just that selection in place with the rest of the note as context. Enter keeps it, Esc discards it, Ctrl+R re-rolls it.

Which file do I download?

File Size Needs
NotepadAI-1.0.0-win-x64.exe 59 MB nothing — .NET is bundled. Take this one.
NotepadAI-1.0.0-win-x64-needs-dotnet10.exe 0.9 MB .NET 10 Desktop Runtime

Both are single files. There is no installer — download, run, done.

Windows will show a SmartScreen warning on first run because the binary isn't code-signed. More info → Run anyway.

In this build

  • Inline AI editing on the selection, with the last 20 prompts recalled via ↑/↓
  • Four providers, all OpenAI-compatible: Groq, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, and Local (Ollama) — the local path needs no key, no account, and no network
  • Web search grounding with citations on providers that support it (Tab in the prompt bar)
  • A real ConPTY terminal in the bottom pane (Ctrl+</kbd>) — full escape-sequence handling, so vim` works
  • Tabs that survive a restart, including unsaved buffers and caret position
  • Compact always-on-top widget mode (Ctrl+Shift+W)
  • Answers to notepad — optionally registers under the per-user App Paths key so Win+R → notepad opens it. Backs up the previous registration and restores it when disabled; no admin rights, nothing in System32 touched.
  • API keys encrypted at rest with Windows DPAPI; no telemetry of any kind

Known rough edges

  • Not code-signed, so SmartScreen complains on first run
  • No spell-check
  • Find has no replace and no regex
  • The terminal doesn't restore across restarts the way tabs do
  • x64 only — no ARM64 build

Requires Windows 10 or 11 (x64). For local models, budget ~4 GB of VRAM for a 4B model; qwen2.5:7b-instruct at 4.4 GB is about the ceiling on a 6 GB card.
