# Tamper-evident notes for you, your scripts and AI — and you can prove it.

Write manually. Write from the CLI, your project code, or an MCP client; set a dead man's switch: if the writes stop, you get an email.

Demo: running the command freshjots append deploys "v2 ok" in a terminal instantly adds that line to the top of the "deploys" note in Fresh Jots.

## How it works

1. 
1
### Create a free accountNo credit card, no trial clock. [Sign up](https://freshjots.com/users/sign_up) and you're in a working notebook in under a minute.
2. 
2
### Receive a token — or connect your AIA 14-day API trial for the full Dev surface. Or add `https://freshjots.com/mcp` in Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client and it reads your notes over OAuth — free and read-only, with agent writes on paid plans.
3.

### This does itSend a note to your Fresh Jots account in three lines: 

```
curl -fsSL https://freshjots.com/install.sh | sh
export FRESHJOTS_TOKEN=mn_your_token
freshjots append cron-jobs-prod "backup ok"
```

 Installs the CLI, sets your token, and appends a line — the note is created on the first write.

## Who it's for

One note store — read it in the browser, on your phone, or straight from code.

### 📡 Scripts, cron & CIEvery script gets its own notebook — [append-only notes](https://freshjots.com/append-only-notes) plus an atomic append API. Your scripts write, you read: a tamper-resistant log you own. Transform any note into a webhook inbox, or into a[dead man's switch](https://freshjots.com/dead-mans-switch) that emails you when the writes stop.[See the API →](https://freshjots.com/for/developers)

### 🤖 Your AIOne-click MCP connect for Claude, Cursor, and other tools. Free to read and search; upgrade to let your agents write — session notes, research dumps, transcripts you can read on your phone. [How MCP works →](https://freshjots.com/for/developers)
- 
### ⌨️ Writing & lifeWrite everything in a single place, reachable by all of your devices. REST API, webhooks, an ingest inbox, and official Bash, npm, Ruby, and Python clients — capture in one curl or one tap ( [see integrations](https://freshjots.com/integrations) ).

## What it looks like

The home page to the left, the open note on the right. That's the basic UI.

Plain notes from cron, CI, webhooks. Rich notes for everything else. Same notebook, same search.

## What's inside — and your data stays yours

- 
### Tamper-evident notesEvery note is hashed and anchored to the Bitcoin blockchain, so you can prove an AI session or log existed by a certain time and hasn't changed since — evidence anyone can check without trusting us. Sessions captured with the Fresh Jots hook get an immediate, independent timestamp on top: a trusted authority stamps each one the moment you save it, proving the exact time, not just the day. [How it works](https://freshjots.com/notarized-notes) .
- 
### Encrypted notesClient-encrypt a note with your own key and store the ciphertext — we keep bytes we can't read, search, or decrypt. [How it works](https://freshjots.com/encrypted-notes) .
- 
### Rich-text + plain notesRich notes for writing, plain notes for streaming output. Search across both.
- 
### Autosave + version historyEvery edit persists as you type. Restore any earlier snapshot — the paragraph you cut last week is still there.
- 
### Export anything.txt, .docx, .pdf per note. Full archive as a single .zip from Options — even after you cancel.
- 
### Installs to your home screenOne tap on iOS or Android. No app store, no updates, no native bloat. [Set it up](https://freshjots.com/integrations) .
- 
### No adsNot on the free plan, not anywhere.
- 
### No AI trainingWe don't read your notes, and our [Terms](https://freshjots.com/terms) forbid training models on them or selling them to anyone who would.
