AI Transcribe is an app for iPhone and Mac that records meetings, lectures, interviews and voice memos, or imports audio and video files up to 3 hours long, and turns them into text with speaker labels and timestamps in 32 languages. 20+ AI tools then produce meeting notes, action items, key points, summaries and translations from the transcript. It works from the phone on the table, with no bot, no device and no calendar connection. Requires iOS 17 or later on iPhone, macOS 15 or later on Mac.

Meeting notes, action items by owner, a decisions log, the follow-up email, translations into 46 languages. Each one is a single tap on a finished transcript.
How it works
Tap Record and put the phone on the table, or bring in a file you already have.
Text with speakers and timestamps, in the language the meeting was in.
Summary, decisions and action items with owners. Copy, export as PDF or send anywhere.
Bot note takers join video calls. Recorder devices cost $159 and need charging. Your iPhone is already on the table, and with AI Transcribe it is the note taker.
Otter, Fireflies, Fathom. Built for scheduled video calls. In-person recording is a side mode, not the product.
Plaud and similar. A second thing to buy, charge and sync, with metered minutes.
Tap Record, put the phone down. Transcript with speakers, then notes with one tap.
4.2 ★★★★★ · Real reviews from the App Store
If you take meeting or lecture notes, this app will make your life so much easier. It took my jumbled notes and gave me clear, easy to action bullet points in seconds.
Great accurate transcription
This is just perfect. Record anything you want and it gives you an AI generated summary in whatever format you want.
Best transcript tool. Love it
Game changer for meeting notes
It is really good to use and I understand it better
No, and that is on purpose. It records from the phone in the room, or imports a recording you made on the platform. Nothing joins your call and nothing connects to your calendar.
Tap Record and put the phone in the middle of the table. The transcript comes back with speaker labels and timestamps. Tap Create meeting notes for the summary and decisions, Create a todo list for the action items, and Extract dates for the deadlines.
AI Transcribe is free to download and free to try. The Pro subscription (weekly or annual plans) is for regular use and includes the full set of AI tools.
Voice memos, WhatsApp voice messages saved to Files, Zoom or Teams recordings, videos and files from any recorder, up to 3 hours each. Video files work too: the audio track is extracted and transcribed.
Yes. Transcripts include speaker labels and timestamps, which keeps meetings and interviews readable. Rename a speaker once and the name applies throughout.
Yes. AI Transcribe transcribes 32 languages with automatic language detection, and can translate transcripts and notes into 46 languages.
AI Transcribe uses state-of-the-art speech recognition models. Accuracy is highest with clear audio; background noise and heavy crosstalk reduce it, as with any note taker.
Copy the text, export as plain text or PDF via the share sheet into Slack, Notion, email or any app, or export the audio itself.
For meetings where the phone can sit on the table, yes. Same transcription, speaker labels and AI meeting notes, without the $159 device, and it imports recordings from any other source.
No. AI Transcribe is available for iPhone (iOS 17 or later) and Mac (macOS 15 or later), both through the App Store.
