JotBud

Feature

Text your chaos. JotBud organizes it.

It's 2am. You just remembered four things. Dump them all into one message — JotBud splits, sorts, and stores each one separately.

brain dump: taxes, fix the leak, buy groceries, reply to Tom, check if passport is expired
All captured. 5 things off your plate. The passport check is time-sensitive if you're traveling — want me to prioritize that?
yeah I have a trip in march
Got it. I'll put the passport check in tomorrow's briefing with a heads-up about processing times. The rest are on your list.

Your brain won't stop generating thoughts. Traditional apps make you enter them one by one.

ADHD brains don't produce thoughts in neat, labeled categories. They arrive in bursts — 6 things at once while you're brushing your teeth, 3 more while you're trying to fall asleep. By the time you open an app, navigate to the right list, and type out the first item, the other 5 are gone. Brain dump parsing solves this by accepting the mess and handling the organization for you.

How it works

1

Dump everything in one message

Open Telegram, text JotBud everything on your mind. No formatting needed. "taxes, fix the leak, buy groceries, reply to Tom, that thing for work" — all in one go.

2

AI splits and categorizes each item

JotBud parses your message into individual tasks and ideas. It understands natural language, so "call dentist tomorrow" becomes a task with a time attached.

3

Get reminded at the right time

Each item gets tracked separately. Time-sensitive things get nudges. Everything else shows up in your morning briefing. Nothing falls through the cracks.

Frequently asked questions

What is a brain dump for ADHD?+
A brain dump is the practice of getting every thought out of your head and into an external system. For ADHD brains, this reduces cognitive load and anxiety. Instead of trying to hold 6 things in working memory (which ADHD makes unreliable), you offload them all at once.
How is JotBud's brain dump different from a notes app?+
A notes app stores your dump as a block of text. JotBud uses AI to parse it into individual items, understand what's time-sensitive, and set up reminders. The dump goes in messy and comes back organized.
Can I brain dump by voice?+
Yes. Send a voice message on Telegram and JotBud transcribes and parses it. Talk through your thoughts without typing — the AI handles the rest.
What if I dump the same thing twice?+
JotBud uses semantic memory to recognize similar items. If you mention something you've already captured, it'll let you know rather than creating a duplicate.
How many items can I dump at once?+
As many as you need. JotBud handles messages with dozens of items. The whole point is that you don't have to think about limits or formatting — just dump and go.

Morning Briefing

ADHD working memory dumps itself while you sleep. JotBud sends you a morning briefing so you start each day knowing exactly what matters — no list-checking required.

Gentle Nudges

Most apps remind you with "OVERDUE: Call dentist." JotBud says "Hey, the dentist call is still on your list. Good day for it?"

Context Recovery

You got interrupted, opened a new tab, and now the original task has vanished from your mind. JotBud tracks your flow and helps you pick up where you left off.

Voice Capture

Your brain moves faster than your thumbs. Send a voice message on Telegram and JotBud transcribes, parses, and stores everything you said.

Your brain does the thinking.
JotBud does the remembering.
