Evernote is a cross-platform note-taking, organization, and task-management application operated by Bending Spoons. It lets people capture notes, web clips, images, audio, and documents, sync them across devices, and search across their knowledge base. For developers, Evernote publishes the Evernote Cloud API — a Thrift-based (EDAM) service exposing UserStore and NoteStore operations for creating, reading, searching, sharing, and synchronizing notes, notebooks, tags, and resources. Authentication is via three-legged OAuth 1.0a or long-lived developer tokens, with a sandbox environment for development. Official SDKs cover Python, Java, Ruby, JavaScript/Node, PHP, iOS, Android, and C#. The classic EDAM API and SDKs are deprecated and no longer actively developed; Evernote is now building a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to connect AI tools to notes.
