A word from the creator

Alexandrie is free, and it will stay that way.

Alexandrie didn't start as a business. It started as a tool I wanted for myself. Years later, I'm still maintaining and improving it in my spare time, and I'm happy to share it with anyone who finds it useful.

The application doesn't track you, doesn't serve ads, and is fully open-source. However, keeping the live platform running involves hosting and infrastructure costs. If Alexandrie adds value to your daily workflow, consider supporting its independence. Even the smallest donation helps cover the servers for months.
