## What is ForgeNotes?

Record a meeting on your iPhone and get a transcript, a summary, decisions and action items in minutes. No bot joins the meeting, recording and transcription are unlimited on every plan, and the Free plan needs no payment.

When you press record, ForgeNotes says "This meeting is being recorded." aloud, so everyone in the room knows.

NO BOT, AND IT SAYS SO
• Nothing joins your meeting as a participant. ForgeNotes records only when you press record
• The announcement is on by default, with 12 voices to choose from and one switch to turn it off
• If it only reached headphones, or the volume was off, the app tells you
• Calls are recorded with the ForgeNotes apps for Mac and Windows

NOTES YOU CAN CHECK
• Transcripts with speakers in 41 languages. Choose the spoken language or let ForgeNotes detect it
• Summary, decisions and action items, each linked to the line it came from
• Ask across your meetings ("what did we decide about pricing?") and get answers with citations
• Insights under every meeting: talk time, questions and interruptions
• Your own vocabulary keeps names and terms spelled right
• Name the speakers once and ForgeNotes keeps a list of what each person committed to

YOUR RECORDING IS SAVED AS YOU GO
• Audio is saved to your iPhone every few seconds, with the screen locked, for as long as the meeting runs
• If the app is closed or the battery dies, what was recorded is still on the phone and is picked up next time
• No signal needed. Uploads wait for a connection, retry by themselves and carry on in the background
• Import what you already have: voice memos, lectures, audio and video files

SHARE IT AND PUT IT TO WORK
• Export a meeting as PDF or Word, made on your iPhone, or as text or Markdown, or to Notion
• Clips: cut a moment from the transcript and share just that part on a link, with an optional PIN and expiry
• Recap emails with the summary and action items, sent when you choose
• Post notes to Slack, turn action items into HubSpot, Asana, Linear or Jira tasks, or use webhooks for Zapier and Make
• Teams: share meetings with colleagues, who read them free
• Apple Watch: start, pause and stop a recording from your wrist

PLANS
Recording and transcription are unlimited on every plan. Very heavy use only moves new meetings later in the processing queue: nothing is blocked or cut off, and there are no AI credits.
• Free: AI notes on 10 meetings a month, Ask across your last 30 days, text, Markdown and Notion export, and Insights
• Pro: unlimited AI notes, PDF and Word export, clips, vocabulary, recap emails, AI agents (MCP) and creating teams. 7-day free trial for new subscribers
• Pro Plus: everything in Pro, plus Slack, HubSpot, Asana, Linear, Jira, webhooks and AI coaching notes
• Team: everything in Pro Plus, plus the team admin console and top processing priority
One account covers iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, the web, and the Mac and Windows apps.

WHERE YOUR MEETINGS GO
Your recordings upload so they can be transcribed. Transcription and the AI that writes your notes run on computers we operate. No third-party AI service receives your audio, transcripts or notes, and they are never used to train AI models. Audio is kept for 1 year and transcripts and notes for 2 years, or 2 and 4 years on Pro Plus and Team. Deleting a meeting removes its audio, transcript and notes, and you can delete your account in the app.

Recording other people requires their consent in many places. ForgeNotes announces itself and reminds you before you record; making sure everyone agrees is your responsibility.

ForgeNotes Pro, Pro Plus and Team are auto-renewing subscriptions, billed monthly or yearly. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation, or when the free trial ends; the subscription renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings.

### 5/5 — Increased Productivity

*2026-11-06*

I normally don’t leave reviews, partly because I bounce around from app to app due to my ADHD saying there’s a better option out there. But I have been using ForgeNotes on my computer for a while now, very happy there’s an app version for my phone. 

As someone who is on many video calls daily, this has upheld the quality of the call on multiple 2+ hour sessions. Puts together a great overview, assigns To-Do’s and even allows me to ask questions pertaining to the topic of the call vs having me search through all of the transcript to get that answered. 

My productivity has increased, I have been able to document notes better than before and retain certain details that used to get lost in the jumble of everything else discussed on the call.

**Developer response:** Were happy to hear that it is improving your productivity! Thank you for the review!
