Aurora Workflow
Your workflow, beside you.
Aurora is a local-first sidebar workflow manager for Windows: your projects, notes, and tasks live in a dockable panel that is always beside your work — and stay on your machine, which makes it a natural fit for professions handling confidential work, from law and accounting to medicine and research. Public 1.0.0 is upcoming; the waitlist is open on auroraworkflow.com.
What it does
-
Dockable sidebar
Dock left or right — with auto-hide and a launcher, it's there when you need it and gone when you don't.
-
Projects, notes, tasks
A project → node tree with an editor, statuses, and search — the working memory of your day, one keystroke away.
-
Local-first & private
Your data lives on your machine — nothing leaves it. Project encryption and password locks are coming to Pro.
-
Free to start
The Free tier is genuinely useful — sidebar, projects, local backup, JSON import/export, and keyboard shortcuts. No account needed.
Good to know

- Localization is free for everyone — languages are never gated
