[Voice message: "Okay so I need to call the dentist, pick up that prescription, and remind me to check if the car insurance renewed because I think it might have lapsed"]
Got 3 things from your voice note: dentist call, pick up prescription, and check car insurance renewal. The insurance one sounds urgent — want me to prioritize that?
yes please
Insurance check is top of your list. I'll include it first in tomorrow's briefing.

By the time you type it out, you've already forgotten half of what you wanted to say.

ADHD brains generate thoughts faster than fingers can type. Voice capture reduces the friction between thought and capture to nearly zero — press one button, talk, done. JotBud handles the rest: transcription, parsing, organization, and reminders.

How it works

1

Hold the mic button in Telegram

Telegram has built-in voice messages. Hold the mic button, talk through everything on your mind, and send it to JotBud.

2

JotBud transcribes and parses your message

AI converts your voice into text, then parses it into individual tasks and ideas — just like a typed brain dump, but faster.

3

Everything gets stored and tracked

Each item from your voice message is captured separately. Time-sensitive things get nudges, and everything shows up in your morning briefing.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is the voice transcription?+
JotBud uses Telegram's voice message format and processes it with AI transcription. It handles natural speech well — you don't need to speak slowly or enunciate perfectly. It understands conversational ADHD brain-dump style.
Can I voice-dump multiple tasks in one message?+
Absolutely. That's the whole point. Ramble through everything on your mind, and JotBud splits it into individual items. One voice message, multiple captured tasks.
What languages does voice capture support?+
JotBud primarily supports English for voice capture. Other languages may work but with lower accuracy.
Is a voice memo better than typing for ADHD?+
For many people, yes. Voice capture reduces the friction between thought and action. You don't have to organize your thoughts first — just talk. The AI handles structure. Typing requires you to hold the thought while simultaneously converting it to text, which taxes working memory.

Brain Dump

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

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.

Your brain does the thinking.
JotBud does the remembering.
