## What is Verbatim?

Private AI voice-to-text, transcription, and dictation — right on your iPhone.

Record meetings, lectures, interviews, conversations, and voice notes, or speak directly into supported apps and text fields using the Verbatim Voice Keyboard. Verbatim turns your audio into searchable text and useful notes while keeping transcription and AI processing on your device.

PRIVATE, ON-DEVICE PROCESSING

Your recordings do not need to be sent to a cloud transcription service. Verbatim uses AI models on your iPhone for transcription, summaries, search, and text processing. Once the required models are installed, supported processing works offline.

RECORD AND TRANSCRIBE

• Record conversations and voice notes
• Import supported audio and video files
• Create searchable transcripts on your device
• Detect supported spoken languages
• Translate supported speech into English
• Review the original audio alongside its transcript

DICTATE IN YOUR APPS

Enable the Verbatim Voice Keyboard to dictate in supported apps and text fields. Tap the microphone, speak, and Verbatim inserts the completed text where you were typing.

SUMMARIZE AND FIND WHAT MATTERS

• Generate concise summaries and key points
• Search across saved transcripts and summaries
• Ask questions about your recordings
• Copy, export, and share your results

NO MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION

Try every feature during the free trial. Unlock Verbatim Pro once to keep unlimited access — no recurring subscription.

Custom keyboards are unavailable in secure fields, phone-pad fields, and apps that disable third-party keyboards. AI-generated transcripts and summaries may contain errors; review important information before relying on it.

### 5/5 — Best Transcribe App

*2026-07-19*

I was currently using plaud but verbatim is so amazing how your about to use it off like and also works with multi languages and I love the ai feature if I need anything questions or answer from the podcast I use this is what I use it for getting keynotes and it’s fast and works offline I highly recommend it

### 1/5 — عندما انتشر تطبيقك خدعت الجميع

*2026-04-24*

التطبيق كان مجاني وبعد ما تاكدت من انتشار التطبيق ، غيرتو استراتيجيتكم وخليتو الشراء من داخل التطبيق ، تم حذف التطبيق

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. I understand how that change could be frustrating.

The app was originally a paid download and was temporarily listed as free during a transition to a “free to try” model with an in-app purchase. That change went live sooner than intended during Apple’s review process, which I take responsibility for.

There was no intent to mislead, and I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. I’m continuing to improve the app and the overall experience.

If you’d still like access to the full version, I’d be happy to provide a promo code—just let me know.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2026-04-24*

There is the best of it

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback, I’m sorry the app didn’t meet your expectations.

Verbatim is designed to provide a secure, fully offline way to record, transcribe, and summarize notes using AI. I’m always working to improve it.

If you’re open to it, I’d really appreciate any specific feedback on what didn’t work well for you so I can make it better.

### 1/5 — خداع

*2026-04-24*

بعد العرض تم التحايل وتحويله إلى مشتريات داخلية

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback, I understand the frustration.

The app was never intended to be permanently free. During a recent update, it was temporarily listed as free while we transitioned to a “free to try” model with an in-app purchase. Unfortunately, that change went live before Apple completed the review process.

I apologize for the confusion. If you’d still like access, I’d be happy to provide a promo code, just let me know.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-04-23*

I’m a college student and I always record my lectures but it’s so hard to take notes and ChatGPT never does it the way I want it to, this app made my notes perfect!

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the review. I’m glad it’s helping with your lectures!

Verbatim was built to make recording and organizing notes simple and reliable, so it’s great to hear it’s working the way you need it to.

If you ever have suggestions or features that would make it even better for you, feel free to share. I’m always looking for ways to improve it.

### 1/5 — سيئ

*2026-04-22*

بعد التنزيل مجاني تم تحويل مدفوع على الجميع بما فيه العرض 😱

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. I understand why this was frustrating.

The app was unintentionally listed as free for a short period due to a configuration issue during release. This was corrected as soon as possible.

Verbatim AI is designed as a premium app with a free tier that includes limited recordings and one summary, plus a one time upgrade for full access. There are no subscriptions.

If you downloaded the app during that window and feel affected, please reach out to me directly and I will make it right.

I appreciate you trying the app and sharing your feedback. It helps improve the product.
