■ Why we made this Sometimes I have a bizarre dream and want to record it when I wake up, but typing with sleepy eyes is tough. I needed a tool that could quickly capture and transcribe speech. When friends send messages that need long replies while I'm out walking or eating, I want to respond quickly without sending voice messages.

■ FAQ

1. Does it support real-time transcription during recording? Not currently, it can only record and then transcribe when finished.
2. Is there a maximum transcription length? No, in theory you can record several hours of audio. However, since the transcription happens on your device, it will take some time. I've tested it with about 2 hour of audio and the transcription was accurate.
3. What is the transcription speed? It depends on your device. On my M4 macOS, the transcription speed is about 1:12, which means two hours of audio takes about 10 minutes to transcribe.
4. What languages are supported?
