Why Humans Love Our Note Taking Software

“Notehouse is the #1 user friendly note taking software that I have ever worked with!! I have experienced several other note taking softwares that make it extremely confusing and overwhelming to access. However, Notehouse gets the job done without the other complicated stuff. I love the dedication of the Notehouse team to the software and the extremely friendly service I have received since day 1. My team and I look forward to continue utilizing Notehouse as our only note taking and client data management information software.”
- Pamela Cabrera Bahay, Senior Program Officer
The Platform of Hope

"As a social worker it is hard to find a software to help with client notes. Unlike other social workers, I work at a school that doesn’t have a logging software. I hated using a word pad to log things. It’s hard to find notes and it’s hard to keep track of things as I do them. I opened this program and it was instantly what I needed. After trying many programs it was a relief to finally find something easy to use!"

How We Built the Easiest Digital Note-Taker on the Planet and Created a Values-Driven Company That Does Things Differently

Our journey began with our Founder and CEO, Lauren Burke , who spent years working in the nonprofit and education sectors, tackling some of the most pressing social issues. As a lawyer , she represented survivors of violence, undocumented immigrants, and young people in Family and Immigration Court. As a nonprofit founder, she oversaw multiple programs, led teams, and managed grants and funding. As a mentor in higher education, she guided young people to achieve their dreams of creating a better world. Despite the diverse environments she worked in—whether at a school, crisis center, legal office, or community center—Lauren encountered a common problem: the lack of a reliable, affordable, and simple case management solution.

In the aftermath of the 2016 U.S. Presidential election, Lauren and a friend traveled across rural America, providing free legal services from a van. What did they find? The same issue persisted—too many organizations relying on pen and paper for note-taking, and staff frustrated by cumbersome systems that slowed their workflow.

Determined to create the most user-friendly note-taking software on the planet, Lauren sketched out a blueprint for a customizable digital note-taker for everyone who takes notes on humans. With input from her tech-savvy friend Jourdan, social worker mom, legal service colleagues, and teacher relatives, Notehouse was born.

Today, Notehouse partners with hundreds of nonprofits, educational institutions, and direct-service providers, helping them take notes in a way that fits human needs and recognizing the depth of human relationships. We value accessibility, so we keep Notehouse affordable and incredibly easy to learn—so easy that even your Great Great Uncle Charlie, who isn't a fan of tech gadgets, can use it.

Simply put, Notehouse is for everyone—and for you. And we have even bigger dreams. In the fall of 2024, Notehouse became HIPAA compliant and soon we will begin offering an online community, skills-building classes, and healing workshops, all available for free to our community of users. Because we believe that those who help others are the most vital people on the planet, and they deserve some extra perks alongside their software solutions.
