Getting Started with OptiDesk 360

OptiDesk 360 is your free, local-first productivity suite. Designed for agile teams and privacy-conscious individuals, it runs entirely in your browser. There are no logins, no cloud tracking, and no subscriptions.

Whether you need an offline rich text editor or a Jira alternative for sprint planning, your data stays 100% secure on your device.
