Tasty and Fresh!
Been using Basil for a bit now and have quite enjoyed its progress. At first pass, I thought it was missing a couple things, so I reached out to the dev and BOOM, there they were. Transcription has been consistently strong. I’m sure it’ll continue to improve, and I’m glad to support folks trying to make our lives easier. Keep up the great work!

Amazing app
Works well on device and does nor drain my battery while transcribing.
Super clean and actually private
Love how simple and distraction-free this is. The voice transcription is surprisingly accurate, and the summaries save a ton of time after meetings. Doesn’t feel bloated at all.
Tried it and loved it
The author of the app gave away license on Reddit so I said why not try it. I ended up loving the app and found it quite useful. It does a really good job of recording audio from meetings and converting it to usable information. I may not have found it otherwise, but having used it I would certainly have bought it.

Great UI and ease of use.
I was able to try this for last couple weeks and really enjoyed the experience. It was easy a quick to set up. Customization is a great add on feature as well.

Works like a charm
As the title says, works amazing. And the best part everything’s on device

Good 😊
Nice app and Better Creator
There’s something to be said about an early startup company that’s trying to do the right thing, meeting notes and a voice recorder that works on your device, thinks about privacy first, and also wants to know your feedback, but the latter of the two is something that’s very important. A lot of people say they want your feedback, but not many actual creators are the ones who are answering your emails. Go to anorectic community and online, that shows they care about a product, so I am always willing to take a hiccup or two along the way on a startup app to know that they will help in the long run, people that I advocate for for invisible disabilities @drdisruptor

Wow, excellent app!
I am really enjoying this app. It does an excellent job in transcribing anything I throw at it. Truly impressive, and congratulations to the team behind this app. It really raises the bar.
Early Thoughts
This is intentionally short and introductory with the expectation of returning to say more. I have reviewed a number of apps to which I’ve been given access from Reddit. I have not seen one with such careful design in the interface so early in its development until now. I am excited to use it more and come back with a more detailed review. It seemed worth saying that first impressions were sufficiently high that I had to say something now.

Excellent Note Taker
App looks great and is easy to setup and start with. It’s recording, capture, analysis and summarization is strong. The output can be easily shared. I am happy to give the developer a 5 star review and they have built a great app that provides a high-value to me while keeping my notes private.
Great app!!
Perfect app with a clean design and excellent performance. Definitely worth trying.
Great app
I use it every day for meeting, helpful app
Great App!
Makes life easy for me!
Fails to record
When the app actually starts to record, which is about two out of 10 attempts, it does quite a good job at transcribing, creating action items, etc. I have found that I have to restart my phone in order to get it to work properly. And that’s pretty much every time I wanna use it. If it would open and function regularly, without having to worry about restarting my phone, I would give it five stars.

Response from developer
Thank you very much for the feedback. If possible, could you email us your iOS version and phone model/number to hello@basilai.app ? We’d love to get this fixed for you.
awesome
great apps.. amazing
Good Transcription App
I’ve been using this app for a little bit now and I can say it’s pretty good but definitely has room for improvement. Off the bat it is actually recording the audio which is super helpful and great to go back and listen to. However, you can scroll through the audio when playing back in the app. You have to listen to the whole thing. I like that out of the box you get a summary, the transcript, and action items. The summary and action items can be a little wonky. For example, one says, “Just, yeah.” I think with some tweaks and QOL improvements it can be great!
