Handwritten notes, PDF markup, and AI study tools on one canvas
Low-latency ink with palm rejection, cross-out to erase, and handwriting-to-text conversion keeps writing close to pen on paper.
Import contracts, papers, or textbooks and mark them up by hand, with searchable annotations and clean exports.
Search across typed text, handwriting, and sketches, and turn notes into summaries, mind maps, or structured plans.
Work together in shared notebooks, documents, and whiteboards simultaneously, without version conflicts or file ping-pong.
Screen recorder that captures bugs with full technical context
Record your screen or grab a screenshot from the browser extension, the iOS app, or the Mac app.
Available console logs, network requests, user events, and device details ride along with every recording.
Automatic title, summary, and reproduction steps give developers and agents a clear place to begin.
Push Jams into Linear, Jira, or Slack for triage, or into AI coding tools for investigation.
