Things to sort out this week

Mostly the flat — the boiler, the deposit, and whether to stay another year. Also: book the dentist before it gets worse.

What to do

  • Call the landlord about the boiler
  • Book the dentist — left molar

What the doctor said

Blood pressure is fine. The tiredness is probably the iron — start the tablets, come back in six weeks if it has not lifted.

To do

  • You — start the iron tablets, one a day with food
  • Then — book a follow-up if it has not lifted in six weeks

Nobody chose a language. Nothing was translated.

Speak how you actually speak.

Anything you say out loud, written down and made sense of — in whatever language you said it in, including when that changes halfway through a sentence.

However it reaches you.

Four ways in, and the same note comes out of all of them.

  • Record it

    Press once and put the phone down. It keeps going through a call, a locked screen, a walk to the car.

  • Watch it as you speak

    Words on screen while you talk — and translated underneath when somebody switches language.

  • Bring one you already have

    Any recording on the phone. A voice memo from last year, a lecture someone sent you, a video.

  • Paste a link

    A talk, a podcast or a lecture becomes notes you can read in a minute instead of an hour.

Half of it was in Spanish.

Anything that runs in two languages comes back as one note — each part written in the language it was actually spoken in, and the whole thing readable in yours. Nobody picks a language first, because nobody knows in advance.

One button

Press record and put the phone down.

When you pick it up there is a summary, the things to do that came out of it, and the whole transcript underneath. No setup, no template to choose, nothing to configure.

  • Keeps recording through a phone call or a locked screen
  • Audio is written to disk as it is captured, so a crash costs seconds
  • Finishes on its own if you close the app, then tells you

Any language, mid-sentence

French in, French out.

Most transcription assumes you picked one language and stuck to it. It is the most common complaint about the apps that already exist, and people make it in the language they were let down in.

“Keine Ausgabe für den deutschen Markt. Texte und Audio sind englisch.”

A German review of a competing app — “No output for the German market. Text and audio are in English.”

Aspenote writes what was said, in the language it was said in, and summarises in that language too. Translation happens when you ask for it and not before — and it follows you when you change language halfway through a sentence.

Live text

Two people, two languages, one screen.

Turn on live text and the words appear as you speak. Set it to the language you are speaking and it is live transcription; set it to one you are not and it is live translation. Neither of you picks what anybody is about to say.

  • Around two seconds behind, which is faster than an interpreter
  • Any language pair, detected as you go
  • Silence is never sent, so it costs nothing to think

Afterwards

Ask the note anything.

“Who owes what, and by when?” Answers come from what was actually said, and it tells you plainly when something was not said rather than inventing it. Paste a link to a talk and it does the same for that.

  • Summary, action items and the full transcript
  • A YouTube link becomes notes you can read in a minute
  • Import a recording you already have

Your recordings

Your audio never touches our servers.

It goes from your phone straight to the transcription service and is deleted there the moment the transcript exists — including when something fails. We keep a copy of the transcript for seven days so a dropped connection can finish the job, then it deletes itself. There is no account and no advertising SDK, and nothing we measure carries what you said.
