The problem

What was your best idea last month?

You had one. It came at the wrong moment: on a walk, in the car, halfway through something else.

If you saved it at all, it's in a voice memo you'll never play back, or a note you'll never find.

The problem was never writing it down. It's getting it back.

Capture

Saved before you put your phone away.

One tap, speak, done. No title, no folder, no form. The mic is the first thing you see.

JOT #59

Best ideas come on walks

Our best ideas always surface when walking around the reservoir, never sitting at a desk.

Permanence

JOT #1 is as findable as JOT #500.

Every thought gets a permanent number and stays for good. Nothing is archived away from you. Six months in, you don't have a pile of notes. You have a record of how you think.

Retrieval

Ask your memory anything.

Ask a question in plain English, by typing or by voice. The answer comes back drawn from your own JOTs, in your own words.

01Find a decision

What did I decide about marketing?

✦

You halved paid marketing in JOT #447 and put the money into the product. JOT #212 points the same way: sell never losing a thought, not transcription.

02Spot a pattern

Where do I keep contradicting myself?

✦

On speed. JOT #1 keeps you bootstrapped so you can move fast, but JOT #83 commits to building fully native, which is the slower road.

03Recall an idea

What was that thing I said about walking?

✦

JOT #388, from 9 July. Your best ideas come while walking around the reservoir, never sitting at a desk.

Private by default

JOT costs money so your thoughts never have to be the product.

No ads, no free tier, no data business. Each of them would mean making money from the one thing you came here to protect.

Never lose a thought.
