## What is sayjar?

Turn meetings, lectures, interviews, and voice notes into readable text on iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

Record and follow along with live transcription, or import an audio file you already have. Speech recognition uses Apple's on-device technology, and your audio and transcripts stay on your device.

START FREE
• Transcribe up to 10 minutes of audio
• Try one audio import of up to 3 minutes within that allowance
• Search and review saved transcripts

PREMIUM UNLOCKS
• Unlimited transcription and audio imports
• PDF, Markdown, and text exports
• More ways to organize recordings with tags

Edit transcript text and titles, adjust playback speed, and find the recording you need. On compatible Apple Intelligence devices, Smart Notes can turn a transcript into key points, decisions, and action items. Availability varies by device and language.

No account is required. Recordings, imported files, transcripts, and Smart Notes are stored locally. See our privacy policy for details about anonymous purchase and usage indicators sent to RevenueCat.
