How devs use this

Every script in your stack gets its own notebook.

Your AI session's context evaporates when you close the tab. Prod hiccups at 11pm and you're away from your desk. That cron job — is it still running, or did it die quietly three weeks ago?

Give each one its own note. One curl per event, read every stream from your phone, search across all of them. The note is the channel — closer to "Slack channels for bots" than "fancy notes app." It replaces the bundle you already babysit: a Slack channel per script, a log aggregator you stood up, a DB table you have to query, or "just SSH in and tail it."

claude-code — a readable summary of each AI coding session via the /save-to-freshjots slash command
cron-jobs-prod — hourly cron one-liner with the result
payments-product-X — Stripe webhook handler appends each event
failed-deploys — GitHub Action on red writes a one-liner
engineering-journal — shell alias j "fixed the auth bug"
agent-scratchpad — autonomous-agent working memory between runs

Dead-man's-switch alerts — the part that's annoying to build yourself. Set an expected interval on any stream and Fresh Jots emails you when a write stops landing: the cron died, the deploy hook went quiet, the agent stalled. It's the "tell me when the thing stops happening" alarm, included on the developer plan — not a metered add-on.

Append by filename — first call creates the note, every call after adds a line. No id lookup, no setup step. Send an idempotency key and a retried webhook won't double-write:

curl -X POST https://freshjots.com/api/v1/notes/by-filename/cron-jobs-prod/append \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $FRESHJOTS_TOKEN" \
  -d '{"text":"backup ok 2026-04-26 03:00"}'

The full pitch — append-only logs, idempotency keys, agent scratchpads, common workflows — lives at /for/developers.

What Fresh Jots is — and isn't

This is the place to store digest outputs from your jobs — successful payments one after another, unsuccessful payments, errors, failed deploys, daily summaries, AI session transcripts (any, or all of your AI session slash commands outputs, really), in separate, very likeable notes -- anything you'd actually want to read on your phone, from anywhere on Earth with internet access. Raw server output? Pipe it into a log aggregator like Datadog or BetterStack — we're the everyday highlights layer above, along with any note you'd like to manually write, or pipe in, then return to anytime, from anywhere, in a single web app.

If your subscription ends

Your account stays accessible for up to 12 months after your last payment — you can read, search, and export every note you've already written. New writes (create / update / append / delete) pause until you resubscribe. After 12 months without a renewal we may purge the account; we'll email you well before that happens.

Switching plans

Upgrades take effect as soon as Lemon Squeezy confirms the change; the price difference is prorated against your next renewal. Downgrades require your current usage to fit inside the lower tier's caps — so a Dev user with 9,000 plain notes who wants to downgrade to Personal would need to reduce below the Personal cap first. The billing page will show you exactly how much to remove.

Questions?

The FAQ covers cancellations, exports, and what happens when a subscription ends. Choosing between Fresh Jots and another notes app? Side-by-sides with Notion, Evernote, Apple Notes, Obsidian, and Google Keep cover the trade-offs honestly. Still unsure? The contact page has direct email.

* Team seats — how the count works. On the Team plan, the account that buys the subscription (the team owner) counts as one of the paid seats. A 2-seat purchase covers the owner plus one invited member; a 5-seat purchase covers the owner plus four invited members; and so on up to 25 seats. Seats can be added or removed at any time from the billing portal — additions are pro-rated immediately, removals credit on the next renewal. The owner role is structural and stays with the buying account.
