Congrats on the launch! I'm not your target market but am curious to learn how this gives AI "unlimited" memory. Whenever I try to use GPT-3 API, I'm blocked by the token limit for most practical applications. My two cents for the product itself is it seems more like a tool for developers than novel writers. Have you done any beta testing with your target users?

Thanks for the kind words!

The unlimited part comes from the AI knowing just enough context to stay coherent in any situation. Current long-form text techniques usually just summarize the past n tokens, and maybe the previous summary as well. The problem with this is that it quickly loses specifics of anything that happened just outside the window.

What Jotte's graph-based approach does is have weighted summaries, allowing the important information to stay in there much longer.

Definitely agree that the interface is still pretty rough, but we wanted to just get public reception on this sort of thing. We've done some testing on hyrid dev/writers, but it needs a more rigid structure before we even try to test this on pure writers.

Hi! Jotte looks amazing, and I can't wait to try it out. Unless its proprietary, can you elaborate what you mean with "weighted summaries"?
