"Where does this go?"
A quick thought, a small decision, and the tool wants a project, a folder, an assignee. So nobody logs it, and it's gone.
For teams, households & individuals
Keep what matters, without the filing.
jotsum is a date-first timeline for the thoughts, tasks, links and decisions you'd otherwise lose. Capture in a tap; find it by roughly when. On your own, or shared with your group.
Forward a message, email it in, say it, snap a photo, drop a link. However your group captures things, they all land on the timeline.

Sound familiar?
Every group ends up with the same handful of problems. None of them are the chat's fault. A chat isn't built to remember.
"It's buried in the thread."
Two hundred messages later, the one detail that mattered is somewhere in the scroll.
"I know I did things. I just can't tell you what."
The moment someone asks, it's gone. Not the work, only the trace of it.
"We remember the moment. Not exactly when."
What happened is vivid. The date, the week, which conversation: gone.
"We set up the system. Nobody kept it up."
The folder structure made sense at first. Then life got busy and everyone drifted back to the chat.
One tool, three ways in
However you arrived, there's a door for you.
For groups
Teams, co-ops, households and communities: keep decisions and who's on what out of the chat and findable later.
For one
The bits you'd normally message yourself and lose, kept on a calm timeline.
Inclusive by design
Built for minds under load: ADHD, burnout, a relentless week. And better for the rest of us too. The thinking behind it →
How it works
Three steps. That's it.
Jot: zero friction
Type it, forward it, snap it, say it. No setup. No decisions.
It's organised by date
Every entry is automatically dated, enough to keep it findable, with as much structure as you want on top.
Find it later
Search "when-ish" and jotsum handles the details. You get your context back.

"We were looking for a tool for our tasks and planning for over a year. It had become quite messy with stuff spread across multiple spreadsheets and things were getting lost. This app is great because we arrange our tasks around our farm zones like Haan and Koe and review our plans on our Monday walk-arounds — and we don't have to check tasks and handoff by sending each other messages."— Pluk Farm CSA (Amsterdam), 8-member cooperative
