Jot

What Jot does

Jot is a collaborative workspace that combines real-time documents, full-featured spreadsheets, and built-in team chat into a single platform. It allows users to embed live spreadsheets with formulas and charts directly inside documents and converse via in-document threads, 1:1 messaging, or team rooms. The platform is designed as an alternative to Quip, featuring migration tools and presentation deck generation directly from existing docs.

Who Jot is for

Jot is built for cross-functional teams, project managers, and organizations looking for an integrated alternative to Quip before its shutdown. It is suited for teams that want unified documentation, data tracking, and communication in one interface rather than using multiple separate apps.
