Jot it down in a rush — find it by meaning

Zeitnote keeps your thoughts, links, lists, and voice notes — and finds them even when you don’t remember a single word from the note. The bot, the website, the app on your phone, and Yandex Alice all look at the same notes.

Where it works

One set of notes, four ways in

Save quickly in chat or by voice, then browse, search, and edit wherever suits you right now. The notes are the same everywhere.

  • Telegram: bot and Mini App

    Text, voice, a photo, or a forward in one message — the bot saves the note with Telegram formatting. Instead of replying “saved”, it reacts with ✍ on your message, so the chat stays a feed of your notes.

    The “My notes” button opens the Mini App: browse, search, categories, trash, and settings — without long chat flows.

    Open the bot →
  • The zeitnote.app website

    A full web app with its own sign-in: email and password, or Telegram. The account isn’t tied to the bot — no Telegram needed on a work laptop.

    List, editor with autosave, search on Ctrl+K, categories, trash. Already using the bot? Link Telegram, and your chat notes show up here.

    Sign in on the web →
  • App on your phone

    Install the website to your home screen like a regular app — own icon, no address bar.

    Notes live on the device: on the subway or a plane you can still open and edit them, and changes sync as soon as you are back online.

  • Yandex Alice skill

    Tell a Yandex speaker or the Yandex app «Алиса, запусти навык „Заметка“» (“Alice, launch the Zametka skill”), then go on by voice: “запиши…” (“write down…”) saves a note, and any question is answered from your notes.

    On first launch the skill asks you to sign in to Zeitnote — once, in the Yandex app on your phone. You can disconnect Alice on the website under “More”.

    • Алиса, запусти навык „Заметка“
    • Слушаю. Скажите «запиши» и текст заметки или спросите, что вы записывали.
    • Запиши: пароль от вайфая на даче — sosna2024
    • Записала.
    • Какой пароль от вайфая на даче?
    • Пароль от вайфая на даче — sosna2024.

    Alice speaks Russian, so the skill does too: saving a Wi-Fi password at the dacha and asking for it back.

Features

Ordinary search matches words. Zeitnote matches meaning

Handy for ideas, lists, links, and work notes you jot down on the go and recall a month later in different words.

Capture 4

  • Voice notes

    Send a voice message — the bot transcribes it, saves the note, and makes it available via search and Inline.

  • Photos and files in a note

    A Telegram album is saved as one note instead of falling apart into a dozen. On the web photos line up in a grid, an image can be pasted right into the text and dragged, and documents and videos collect into a list under the note.

  • Edits & forwards

    Edit a message in the bot chat — the note updates. Forward someone else’s message — it is saved as a new note, and its text stays an untouched quote.

  • Import from Saved Messages

    Link your Telegram account and move text messages from Saved Messages into Zeitnote in one action.

Find 4

  • Semantic search

    Ask “what to buy for dinner” — your grocery note turns up even if the wording differs. For URLs the page title is pulled in, so search hits the idea, not just the address.

  • Answers from your own notes

    Ask a question in plain words — Zeitnote builds an answer from your notes and shows which ones it used. When the answer implies an action, it offers one and only acts once you confirm. In the bot and the Mini App.

  • Inline mode

    In any chat type @bot: recent notes with an empty query, or search by meaning. A note with a picture goes out as the picture itself, not a link to it.

  • Share a note

    The “Share” button hands you an address like zeitnote.app/s/trip-packing-list — anyone can read the note without an account. The ending is yours to pick, access is revoked in one click, and these pages stay out of search engines.

Stay organized 4

  • Categories & auto-labeling

    System sections plus your own. On save a category is filled in for you, and the bot proposes new groups from similar notes for you to confirm. Auto-assignment and its confidence threshold are configurable.

  • Trash & review

    Deleted by mistake — restore it. “Review” surfaces duplicates and stale notes; you always decide.

  • No service-message clutter

    The bot clears its own command replies and hints after a delay you set. What stays in the chat is the thing you came for: your notes.

  • Two languages

    Bot and Mini App UI in Russian and English; pick the language in settings.
