The notepad that opens anything. Instantly.
NeoPad opens multi-gigabyte logs in a blink, edits Word and Excel files, keeps your notes as plain Markdown and cleans email lists by the thousand. Fast, private, and right on your PC.
Measured with a 1 GB log of 11.5 million lines on an Intel Core i9-10900K with an SSD. Your times depend on your PC.
Stop juggling five programs
Logs, documents, spreadsheets and notes open in tabs, side by side, in one window that starts in under a second.
Logs and huge files
Open multi-gigabyte logs, CSV exports and database dumps without waiting. Scroll, search and filter millions of lines as if the file were tiny.
- Filter to matching lines in a blink
- Highlight rules, bookmarks and an error map
- Edit any line and save, even in huge files
- JSON folding and colours for code and data

Excel workbooks
Open .xlsx files with their formulas, number formats, colour rules and charts. Edit a cell and every formula updates, then save back to the same file.
- Formulas, AutoSum, fill handle and filters
- Charts drawn from live values
- Huge CSV files as a table
- Old .xls files open too

Word documents
Read .docx files as real pages, find any word, print or save as PDF. Edit text, tables and pictures; everything you didn't touch stays exactly as it was.
- Headers, footers, tables and pictures
- Track changes, comments and replies
- Page setup, word count and PDF export
- Old .doc files open as new copies

Notes you own
Write in Markdown that formats itself as you type. Every note is a plain file in a folder on your PC: no lock-in, no proprietary database.
- Checklists, tables, quotes and code
- Folders, tags and search across all notes
- Version history: restore any earlier save
- Unsaved work survives a crash or power cut

Up to four files side by side
Compare a config with its log, or write while you read. Split the window in two, three or four panes, each with its own file.
- Side by side, top and bottom, or a 2×2 grid
- Ctrl+S saves the pane you are typing in
- Split a big file into parts, or merge many into one
- Command palette: Ctrl+K finds any tool

Email tools that usually cost a subscription
Clean lists, check domains and find who shares a mail server, all on your PC. Your lists never leave it.
From a messy export to clean lists in seconds
Drop in a CSV, a text file or even a SQL dump. NeoPad pulls out every address, fixes typos, removes what you don't want and splits the rest the way you like.
- Fixes typos like gmial.com
- Removes duplicates and role addresses (info@, admin@)
- Splits by provider: Gmail, Microsoft, Yahoo and more
- Results saved as files, ready to import

Find every domain on the same mail server
Type a domain or a mail server and see which other domains send their mail there, from the NeoPad database of millions of domains. No API key, no per-query fees.
- Millions of domains, and growing
- Search one server or all of a domain's servers
- Copy, export to CSV, or check the results
- Match inside your own lists too

Check domains
MX, SPF, DMARC, DKIM, PTR, BIMI and MTA-STS, plus blacklists, for thousands of domains at once.
Header analyzer
Open a .eml and see the route, the delays and why SPF, DKIM or DMARC passed or failed.
HTML email preview
Preview newsletters, move CSS into the tags, check images and links, copy the HTML.
DMARC reports
Turn the XML reports Google and Microsoft send you into a clear list of who sends as your domain.
Bounce analyzer
Group bounces by reason and spot the blocks that hurt your sender reputation.
Free to start
Clean up to 2,000 addresses and check 25 domains at a time for free. Pro removes every limit.
The little tools you reach for every day

Screen recorder
MP4 with your computer's sound and microphone, or a GIF, with your camera in a circle.
Collect files

Cut a huge file into parts by lines or size, or merge files with the CSV header kept once.

Questions
Is NeoPad really free?
Yes. The editor, huge files, notes, Word and Excel viewing and the email tools (with limits) are free with no time limit. Pro unlocks editing Office files, the email tools without limits, private AI, screenshots and the screen recorder.
Which Windows versions does it run on?
Windows 10 and Windows 11, 64-bit. The download is about 6 MB.
How big a file can it open?
Multi-gigabyte files open instantly: NeoPad reads only the part you're looking at and indexes the rest in the background. A 1 GB log with 11.5 million lines is fully indexed in about half a second on a recent PC.
Do my files or email lists get uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything happens on your PC. The only things that use the internet are the update check, the Pro licence check, domain lookups you ask for (DNS), the optional AI model download, and Same MX searches, which send just the mail server name you typed.
Is Pro a subscription?
No. Pro is a one-time payment of $24. Sync, when it launches, is an optional monthly add-on because it runs on our servers.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Everything works without internet except the online lookups you ask for, like checking domains or Same MX.
