Is Mariner Software (marinersoft.com), makers of Paperless dead?

If there is any good workflow for migrating out of Paperless, aside from manual labour, I would love to know too.

Thank you for the steer to this. I was completely unaware of Alinof until you mentioned it. i will have a play with the demo version. And as I have time on my hands I will investigate migrating data in from Paperless. Though I do note immediately there is no apparent 'import' function.

Guess I'm late to the game. I was a big MacGourmet user. I bought it from the original developer, but can't remember his name. I may be able to look back in my notes. I have 2,002 recipes in the app. I can not longer open it on my computer or iPad, but can open it on my phone. I've tried to email them many times for the last five years, but never got a response. I use Copy Me That now, but would love to export the recipes I have in MacGourmet before that database is completely gone. Any ideas?

I posted this question in another thread, but posting here because I believe Mariner Software's apps go beyond just Paperless, one of my favourite Mac apps which has great integration with my Fujutisu ScanSnap scanner. Their other apps include MacGourmet Deluxe, Persona, Contour

It seems the company has stopped trading/gone belly up/closed down etc. The website is offline, their emails are bouncing and I've seen no updates (or social posts) for a very long time. I can't find any official news online - but they're still offering their apps for sale on the App Store.

Does anyone have any info/background on this company, or do I need to find alternative (supported) software now?

Thanks!

Working on iMac M1 - Sequoia 15.5 -Paperless V 3.0.8 still works fine.

Scrivener isn't from Mariner. It's from Literature & Latte.

Yes, correct. Sorry. Just haven't used it in a long time.

No worries! Just didn't want anyone to think Scrivener might be in trouble. I love that damn app!
