Jottify is a brain dump app for people who capture far more than they ever reread.
Every notes app splits the work in two. First you get the thought down, then you file it. The second half is what kills it. Which folder, which tag, does this belong with that other note. By the time you have decided, the thought has cooled, so it goes somewhere random and you never open it again. Six months later the app is a pile you have stopped trusting.
Jottify removes the filing. Talk or type anything, in any order, however messy. It cleans the dump into something readable, links it to what you said before by meaning rather than by tags you maintain, pulls anything actionable out as a task, and brings old notes back when they matter.
Search works on meaning, so you can ask what you jotted about taxes last week and get it back.
There is no system to build and nothing to keep tidy. That is the point. Every system you abandoned, you abandoned because it asked you to maintain it.
Jottify Voice NotesJottify's answer
Every other note app splits the work in two. First you capture the thought, then you file it. Jottify only asks for the first. You talk or type, and the structure is inferred from what you said rather than from a system you designed and have to keep up. No folders, no tags. That is the whole product, and it is why it works for people whose notes app has already turned into a pile.
Jottify's answer
Founders, writers, students, consultants, researchers and knowledge workers. Also anyone with ADHD who needs capture without a filing system to maintain.
Jottify's answer
I built it because my own notes were an unsearchable 6000 line pile. I had captured everything and reread almost none of it. Every tool I tried wanted me to organize first, and organizing is the part I never did. So I built the version that does the filing itself, kept using it daily, and it became Jottify.
Jottify's answer
Next.js and TypeScript on the front end, Java with Spring Boot on the back end, PostgreSQL for storage and vector search. Large language models handle transcription, cleanup, and pulling tasks and connections out of raw notes. It runs as a web app and installs as a PWA on iOS and Android.
Jottify's answer
Building the perfect note system feels productive. It isn't. Notion, Obsidian and the rest hand you a blank canvas plus the job of designing folders, tags and templates, and that work is the most convincing procrastination there is. Jottify has no system to build. You save the thought and stop there. The structure comes from what you said, not from what you set up.
