GoodNotes turns your iPad into digital paper. It was created from our founder's frustration of taking readable and reusable handwritten notes on his first iPad. We have since grown to one of the top paid iOS apps worldwide. Our vision is to be the smart digital paper where people think, study, and work. Short term goal is to make GoodNotes smarter and more accessible on other platforms.

GoodNotes was created from our founder's frustration of taking readable and reusable notes on his first iPad. We have since grown to millions of happy users and have been featured on Apple's marketing materials.
We are a fully bootstrapped and profitable company. We started off as an indie developer and now is time for us to grow the team. We are particularly looking for lead web engineers as they will play an instrumental role to our future growth (real time collaboration, multi platforms, and new business models to name a few).
It’s an awesome opportunity to work with the one of the best iOS team in the region on a product loved by million. Hong Kong is also a great first stop if you are interested in exploring Asia!

thomaspun | 11 years ago | on: My startup failed, and this is what it feels like
My YC startup failed two years ago and it still has an impact on me. I learned a lot and wish I knew what I know now back then. My cofounders parted ways within one year of YC and I became a self made single founder. One of the biggest mistakes was not taking breaks. I thought I had to work twice as hard to compensate. It just went into this vicious cycle: depressed & tired -> not productive -> worked every waking moments -> depressed & tired.
