The Plot

NerdyPlanet

About this app

The Plot is a private, local-first diary app to keep track of your life arcs.

Write journal entries and attach them to one or more arcs: a book you’re reading, a friendship, a trip, a project.

Your notes stay in a simple timeline, but The Plot also gives them shape. Posts appear as dots along colored storylines, so you can grasp visually all your moments in one glance.
The app analyzes the vocabulary of your posts to get the high and low points of your life story.

The Plot is built to be minimal and lightweight. No social feed. No ads. No streak pressure. Just a simple place to write, connect moments together, and keep your life story under your control.

Features:
- Works offline
- No ads
- Organize notes into one or more story arcs
- View arcs as colored timelines and graphs, with highs and lows
- Search bar
- Export readable ZIP backups with Markdown posts and JSON indexes
- Import backups when moving or restoring your archive

The Plot is for private journalers, creative people, builders, and anyone who thinks of life in chapters, quests, projects, and side stories.

Your life has threads. The Plot helps you see them.
