xTiles
Visual workspace of tiles for notes, projects and daily planning
xTiles report card
Fair · out of 4.0 · graded Oct 18, 2026
Best for laying out notes and plans visually
xTiles puts notes, tasks, files and links on a page as tiles, so a project looks more like a pinboard than a long document. There's a daily planner with your Google or Outlook calendar in it, and ChatGPT or Claude can build projects for you. The free plan is roomy, but Plus at $12.42 a month billed yearly is dear for a notes app.
Who xTiles is for
- Great if you think visually and like seeing a whole project on one page
- Handy when you want your day planner and project notes in the same app
- Good for students and coaches who'd rather start from a template
Who xTiles is not for
- Pricey if you just want plain notes, at $12.42 a month billed yearly for Plus
- Not for you if you're on Linux, as there's no desktop app for it
- Tight if you're staying free and working with others, with 1 shared space
Why xTiles gets a 2.4
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- DValue for moneyPlus is $12.42 a user a month billed yearly, $19 monthly, past where the dearest tenth of note apps starts. That buys unlimited spaces and uploads, recurring tasks and your full planner history. Unlimited shared spaces need Pro at $24.92.
- BFree plan and trialFree has unlimited pages and projects, 3 personal spaces, Google and Outlook calendars and 1,000 AI credits, which one person could live on. The caps: 5 MB per upload, 2 weeks of planner history and 1 shared space.
- BFeaturesTiles of notes, tasks, images and files on pages, grouped into projects, plus a daily planner, a web clipper with AI summaries, real-time editing, comments, published pages, forms and a timeline. Nothing in the listing shows a gap in the notes job; some AI integration features are still to come.
- CEase of useNo rating on record, and a blank page of tiles leaves the layout to you, which is why the template gallery is there. Spaces, projects and pages are three levels to get your head round.
- BPlatforms and integrationsWeb, Mac, Windows, iPhone, Android and a web clipper, so every device but Linux. What it talks to is short, though: Google Calendar, Outlook, ChatGPT and Claude, with no API on record.

Keep xTiles, or make your own?
Keep it
The plain part of xTiles you could make: notes, tasks, templates and web clipper. What surrounds it you could not. The 4 things listed below take a company, not a weekend.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 98 of the 147 other note-taking apps grade higher. It costs $149.04 a year.
What you could make
- Notes, tasks, templates and web clipper: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Apps for macOS, Windows, iOS and Android that stay in step with each other.
- Several people working in it at the same moment.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. xTiles’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
