Instantly capture audio from your iPhone and view a real-time AI-generated transcript and summary with Read AI. When you meet in-person, open up Read AI, and start to record the audio from the conversation allowing you to skip manually writing notes on paper or in your notes app. Sitting in a lecture, meeting a client in person, or talking out loud to capture an idea, Read AI will record, transcribe, and summarize the audio in real time. After the conversation is complete, Read will generate a comprehensive report that you can keep private, or share with others. Notes generated from your iOS device are displayed side-by-side with your Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams meetings within the app. Key Features: Live Transcription & Summaries Get accurate, real-time transcriptions and concise summaries to stay focused on what matters. Never ask the question again, what did we talk about? Unique Speaker Detection Read AI recognizes each speaker as a unique contributor in the AI, allowing you to distinguish one speaker from another.

Infer is the to-do list that thinks ahead. It reads your calendar events and Slack messages to surface actionable tasks — so nothing falls through the cracks. How it works: • Connect your Calendar, and Infer suggests tasks from upcoming events — meeting prep, deadlines, follow-ups • Connect Slack, and Infer finds action items in your messages — requests, mentions, and commitments • Share text from any app (including Messages) and Infer extracts the tasks for you • On devices with Apple Intelligence, Infer uses on-device AI for smarter extraction Designed to be invisible: • One screen. No tabs, no sidebars, no clutter • Swipe right to complete. Swipe left to dismiss. Long press to edit • High-confidence tasks appear on your list. Lower-confidence ones go to "Maybe" • Pull down to scan for new tasks Privacy first: • All processing happens on your device • No data is collected, tracked, or sent to any server • Calendar and Slack access is read-only • AI runs entirely on-device via Apple Intelligence Works great as a standalone minimal to-do list too — no integrations required.
