How much of your work lives in Notion?
Don't let it vanish in the cloud
Notion has no auto-backup. Manual exports are easy to forget, formats break, attachments get lost — one accident and months of work could be gone. Ginkgo gives you a 3-minute setup, set-and-forget automatic backup.
Ginkgo Backup for Notion is an automated backup tool that incrementally syncs your entire Notion workspace to local storage with zero-knowledge AES-256-GCM encryption, supporting Markdown, JSON, HTML, and PDF export formats.
Sound familiar?
Ginkgo auto-backs up Notion to your drives and cloud. Your data stays in your hands.

A complete backup solution designed for Notion data
Not just export — real data protection
One-click workspace connection
Paste your Integration Token and you're connected. Built-in connection test tells you instantly if the token works and how many pages are accessible.
Automatic scheduled backup
Set it and forget it. Daily sync by default, hourly available. Missed windows are caught up automatically.
Incremental sync
Fetches only pages edited since last sync by last_edited_time, not a full re-export every time. Merges into cache — fast and bandwidth-efficient.
4 export formats
Markdown (YAML frontmatter), JSON (lossless raw data), HTML, and PDF. Database child page properties are written into frontmatter for easy processing.
Complete attachment download
Images, videos, audio, PDFs, and file attachments are all downloaded locally. Cover images and icons too. 3 retries + integrity checks ensure nothing is lost.
Version diffing
Each backup creates a snapshot. Cross-snapshot content diffing via SHA-256, ignoring volatile fields like timestamps — precisely identifies real content changes.
Get protected in 3 minutes
Connect your workspace
Paste your Integration Token, one click to connect. Connection test passes — you instantly see how many pages are ready to back up.
Pick a backup location
Local drive, NAS, or cloud — pick one for now, add more anytime.
First sync
Hit sync. All your pages and attachments appear on your machine. From this moment on, your Notion data has a second copy.
