## Key features

- **One-tap recording:** Starts recording with a single tap and keeps going in the background or with the screen locked. The App Store listing covers iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.
- **Transcripts with speaker labels:** Produces a punctuated transcript that labels each speaker and can be searched by keyword, jumping to that moment in the recording. Help docs cite more than 120 languages.
- **AI summaries:** Condenses a recording into key points, decisions and action items laid out as meeting minutes. Summaries can be customized, translated and exported to PDF.
- **Meeting Assistant:** Syncs with Google or Outlook Calendar and joins scheduled Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams meetings to record them, then emails the notes.
- **Ask AI Chat:** Answers questions about a recording, such as who was given a task or which decisions were made. Paid plans include unlimited chat messages.
- **File uploads:** Upload existing audio, video or PDF files to transcribe and summarize. Paid plans put no limit on the number or length of uploads.

## Good for

- Recording in-person meetings, lectures and interviews on a phone
- Individuals who want unlimited transcription at one flat price
- Students and journalists who also need to transcribe uploaded files

## Worth knowing

- There is no ongoing free plan: after 1 free recording, new summaries need a subscription. Existing summaries stay viewable.
- Subscriptions are sold only through the App Store or Google Play, and the pricing page lists no monthly plan.
- Paying $8.99 every week adds up to several times the $79.99 yearly plan over a full year.
- The US App Store listing shows other in-app price points too, including $17.99 and $29.99 monthly, so the in-app offer may differ.
