The pitch (copy-paste)
One-liner
Jot saves a thought on your Mac in one keystroke: press ⌥Space anywhere,
type, and it's saved to a searchable local log.
Short (tweet-length)
Jot: capture any thought on your Mac in one keystroke. ⌥Space → type → saved.
On-device, no account, permission-free. $4.99 once, no subscription. macOS 14+.
Long (paragraph)
Jot is a menu-bar app for macOS for catching quick thoughts. Press ⌥Space
from any app and a focused capture panel
appears instantly; type, hit ⌘↵, and your note lands in a searchable local
log you can export to Markdown. Everything stays on your Mac; captures are
stored in a plain JSON file, with no account, no cloud, and no telemetry. Jot
requests no system permissions (no Accessibility, microphone, or
screen-recording prompts), so it works the moment you launch it. It's a
native, universal Swift app, on the Mac App Store and as a direct download. One
price, $4.99, paid once, with free updates for every version, no subscription,
and no upsell.
