Save it in seconds. Ask for it back in plain words. A name you just heard. What you spent on the car. When the insurance is due. A film someone told you to watch. Type it, speak it, or share it in from another app - Jot files it for you. Weeks later you don't go hunting through folders. You just ask: "How much did I spend on groceries in June?" "When is the car insurance due?" "When was I last at the dentist?" "What was that book Anna recommended?" WHAT PEOPLE KEEP IN JOT The ordinary things a fast week leaves no time to file: • Thoughts and ideas that arrive at the wrong moment • Names, dates and small details about the people you meet • Spending, bills, subscriptions and receipts • Present ideas, months before the birthday • Links worth keeping - an article, a recipe, an apartment listing • Films to watch, books to read, places to go • Life's small records - the last dentist visit, a vaccination, the dog's vet date • Plans and events worth remembering ASK INSTEAD OF SEARCHING No folders. No tags. No filing system to keep tidy. Ask the way you would ask a friend, and Jot answers from what you saved - and nothing else. Or search every memo, answer and bill by any word it contains. EVERY WAY IN • One box - write a memo, or ask a question • Speak instead of typing, in any language; the recording stays with the memo • Share text or a link from any app and it becomes a memo • Share a picture - a receipt, a poster, a screenshot - and Jot reads it on your device • Import a PDF invoice and Jot pulls out the vendor, the amount and the due date MONEY AND DATES • Bills with amount, due date and paid status, and payments matched to their invoices • A spending screen that shows where the month went • Reminders for anything with a date on it • Your month in Jot, wrapped up in a recap card you can keep or share PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your memos are encrypted on this device before they are backed up, under a key Jot never receives - we cannot read them. Asking a question is the one exception, and the app says so plainly: the memos needed for an answer are sent to the AI model that writes it. No third-party analytics. IN ANY LANGUAGE Write, speak and ask in whatever language you think in. A memo you saved in one language is still found when you ask in another. FREE TO START Two actions a day, free - an action is one memo saved, or one question answered. Jot Pro adds: • 200 actions a month, with no daily cap • Voice memos, written up for you • Encrypted backup and sync across your devices • Unlimited PDF bill imports, with the documents backed up too • Early access to new features Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Jot Terms of Service: https://exbtn.github.io/jot-ios/terms Privacy Policy: https://exbtn.github.io/jot-ios/privacy

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: AI Memory Vault at none against Jot's shown. AI Memory Vault also leads on iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). Jot's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
