One page. As much hierarchy as the note needs.
01
Start with the words. Add structure when you need it.
Organize when you’re ready
Indent a line, move it back, reorder it, or turn it into a checklist item as the structure becomes clear.
Focus on one branch
Make any item the current view. Work with its details, then return to the wider outline when you are ready.
02
Start with a few useful lines.
These outlines are starting points, not fixed systems. Remove what you do not need and change the rest as you write.
Daily Notes
Keep loose notes, follow-ups, things to remember, and finished tasks under one date.
Meeting Notes
Keep discussion notes, decisions, questions, and next actions in the same outline.
Reading Notes
Record the main ideas, questions, connections, and details you want to revisit.
Weekly Review
Gather what went well, what remains open, what you learned, and what comes next.
03

Questions before the first line.
What is an outliner?
An outliner is a writing tool that places notes in a hierarchy. A line can stand on its own or contain more detailed lines underneath it.
Can I keep writing if my connection drops?
If Jotfold is already open, your changes are saved on this device. They sync automatically when you are online again.
Does Jotfold write or reorganize my notes with AI?
No. Jotfold does not generate or rewrite your notes. You decide what to write and how to arrange it.
Can other people edit a shared page?
A shared link is view-only. A reader can copy the outline into their own Jotfold account and edit that separate copy.
What is Jotfold’s approach to features and pricing?
Jotfold is not built to compete on feature count. By staying focused on the essentials of writing and organizing, we aim to keep the price as stable as possible and Jotfold affordable for the long term.
