Professional Online Text Editor
Textpad is a high-performance online text editor designed for speed and simplicity. Whether you need a quick draft or a collaborative workspace, Textpad delivers a seamless writing experience.
Always-on auto-save
Textpad saves your latest content automatically as you type. No save button, no expiry, no "tab closed = gone". Your notes stay in your account for as long as the account exists.
Saves about a second after you stop typing
No manual save, no caps, no expiry timer
Across devices: sign in anywhere, your notes are there
Photos: paste, drop, done
Drop a photo from your desktop, paste a screenshot from your clipboard, or drag a file straight onto the page. The image appears inline, full-quality, with a resize handle. Type **bold**, ## headings, or any other Markdown shortcut and it converts as you type. No image-host setup, no upload-then-paste-the-URL dance.
Paste images straight from your clipboard with Cmd/Ctrl+V
Drag-and-drop a file from your desktop, anywhere on the page
Resize handles, sketches, and freehand drawing built in
Same affordance for videos and audio, drop it, embed it
Markdown shortcuts work too if that's how you write
