About Datoden

Small tools for everyday problems

Datoden is a small Swedish project from Malmö. The idea is simple: tools that do one thing well, work right in the browser and don't need a manual to get started.

How it started

My name is David and I run Datoden through my company Responsit. It all started with Report. I needed an easy way to keep track of hours per customer and send a clear contract report every month – and nothing out there felt quite right. Too complicated, too expensive, or built for a completely different kind of company.

So I built my own. Then another one. When I missed a simple way to edit a PDF, draw a quick illustration or touch up an image without installing a heavy program, those tools ended up here too.

That's why Datoden looks the way it does: one account, several small apps, and the same simple approach in all of them.

The apps right now

More are coming – when something is missing in everyday life, it tends to become an app.

Font

Create your own font.

PDF

Edit and sign PDFs.

Report

Time reporting and contracts.

Vector

Draw vector graphics online.

Missing something? Write to me – many of the improvements have come from exactly those emails.

What I try to stick to

Simple rather than complete

Each app should do its job without fuss. Better one button less than a feature nobody uses.

Your files are yours

Images, PDFs and drawings are edited in your own browser and never uploaded. What is saved in your account is stored on Swedish servers.

Free to start

You should be able to try it for real before you pay anything. If you need more, there are passes and subscriptions at fair prices.

Behind Datoden

Datoden is a service from Responsit AB (organisationsnummer 559151-5084) i Malmö. Frågor, idéer eller något som inte fungerar som det ska? Mejla hello@datoden.com or use the contact form – I read everything that comes in.

The easiest way to understand what Datoden is, is to open an app and try it. It takes less than a minute.
