Dump any thought by voice or text. Jottify reads the meaning, connects ideas across time, and surfaces them when it's useful later. No system to maintain.
Hi, Mateusz here. I've been building Jottify for the past few months.
Before that I went through the usual. Notion, Obsidian, paper journals, dedicated second brain tools. Paper worked best, which surprised me. You can't really reorganize a paper page, so the notes get to be a little bit messy and only the index has to be tidy. Roughly Zettelkasten, but chaotic. And there's just something calming about writing by hand.
The problem is that setting those systems up is the enjoyable part. Then actually adding notes into that perfected system took enough effort that I'd skip it, and I'd end up dumping into a regular text file instead. 6000 lines eventually. Fortunately, I have a good enough memory not to have to go through them.
The thing that got me using my own app daily was book notes. I always tried to take notes while reading, but reaching for a notebook breaks the moment, and by the end of the chapter the thought has gone anyway. Now I just say it out loud and don't have to think about where it goes.
Most notes apps put AI on the interesting part. Write this for me, summarize that, chat with my notes as if they were a person. Instead, I pointed it at the boring part: organizing the thoughts and surfacing patterns. You say the thing and it handles the rest. Anything that sounded like a commitment comes back as a task, with subtasks under it if it needs them. And it keeps reading back over everything, so you get the value of reflecting on it without having to sit down and actually do that.
Right now capture means opening the app, which I know is the weak spot for something whose whole pitch is capture. There's no native app yet, so no widget. Quick shortcut capture is what I'm building next: hold a button or ask Siri, talk, done, nothing to open. No reminders on tasks either. Those are the next things.
The screenshots are a demo account, so you can see how it looks once there's something to work with. All of it, insights included, works on the free plan.
14 days free, no card. After that you drop to a limited free plan, rather than losing access to your notes behind a paywall. What I'd most like to hear is where it gets your notes wrong.

Love the idea, is it self hostable ? Or can it be used with my iphone
@nathan_ngz Thanks! No self hosting today. The reason is quality: grouping and insights are quite hard for local models.
You can use the app on iPhone by adding the PWA to your home screen. Native builds are on the roadmap.
Out of curiosity, is self hosting a privacy thing for you, or more about not depending on someone else's service?
Clean! I love how the action items are created along with the sub-actions, I also think it summarises what you've just said really well. Waiting for an update on the quick shortcut update you mentioned, that will be the game changer imo!
@lorbes Thanks for the feedback!
