## Description

Obsidian is a markdown-based note-taking and personal knowledge management app built around local files, backlinks, graph views, plugins, and highly customizable workflows. It is popular with users who want ownership and structure over their notes.

Obsidian is often compared by buyers who care about linked thinking, privacy, and extensibility more than a polished team workspace. Evaluate sync, mobile use, plugin reliability, publishing needs, collaboration limits, and whether markdown files match the user's long-term habits.

It belongs on a shortlist when the buyer needs a note system they will keep using after the first week. Test capture speed, search, linking, import and export paths, mobile use, privacy expectations, and adjacent options such as docs, wikis, and database workspaces.
