Scratch Usability findings

May 8, 2026 · 47 interviews · 4 themes

Summary

Most participants use Scratch for personal task management — todos, quick capture, and lightweight project tracking. Across 47 interviews, three patterns stood out: users gravitate to Scratch for speed and simplicity over other tools like Notion or Obsidian, the open-source positioning matters (especially for technical buyers), and mobile parity is the single most cited gap.

Recommendations

  • Lean into the “fast capture” positioning in homepage copy — it's the clearest differentiator from Notion and Obsidian and what participants reach for unprompted.
  • Prioritize closing the mobile sync gap. It's the most cited friction among heavy users and a likely churn driver as note libraries grow past a few hundred entries.
  • Surface the open-source / privacy-first story more prominently. Technical participants cited it as a deciding factor; non-technical participants didn't encounter it until well after signup.
  • Ship lightweight todo-list templates. It's the dominant daily use case but currently requires participants to roll their own structure each morning.
