## What is jottie?

jottie is the note-taking app that learns and organizes as you write - all powered by on-device ai that processes your notes locally, not in the cloud.

finally, a notes app that's both intelligent and private. jottie uses apple's built-in machine learning to automatically tag, organize, and connect your notes without sending them to external servers for analysis.

why jottie?

private by design
unlike other ai note apps, jottie processes everything locally. your notes are encrypted with aes-256 and ai analysis happens entirely on your iphone - no third-party servers analyzing your writing.

ai that actually helps
- automatic smart tags extracted from your writing
- semantic search finds notes by meaning, not just keywords
- recognizes people, places, dates, and events automatically
- classifies notes as meetings, tasks, ideas, journals, and more

smart image attachments
attach photos and jottie extracts text using ocr. snap a whiteboard, receipt, or document - the text becomes searchable instantly.

deep apple ecosystem integration
- calendar: auto-link notes to meetings, get reminders before events
- contacts: connect notes to people with automatic name recognition
- reminders: turn notes into action items in your reminders app
- spotlight: find notes from anywhere on your iphone
- share extension: save content from any app directly to jottie

location-aware notes
jottie recognizes places mentioned in your notes and can show them on a map. perfect for travel journals, meeting locations, or remembering where ideas struck.

powerful search
find any note instantly with semantic search that understands context. search by tags, people, dates, note types, or just describe what you're looking for in natural language.
