WeaveNote turns meetings, lectures, interviews and voice messages into notes you can search and organize: it transcribes as you record, then AI turns the transcript into a summary. Transcription and AI run on services and API keys you choose — or fully offline. ■ Transcribed as you record ・Splits automatically at pauses or after a set time, and sends each part off right away ・Keeps recording with the screen off or in another app; standby mode keeps the screen from locking ・Parts where nobody speaks are caught on the phone and never sent, so they cost you nothing ■ More than the microphone ・Discord voice notes: invite the WeaveNote bot to a voice channel and get a transcript per speaker ・Import recordings and videos ・Share a voice message from LINE or another app, and a card shows its transcript right there ■ Your choice of transcription ・Groq (free, set up in the app in 3 minutes), OpenAI Whisper, Google Gemini ・On-device Whisper: fully offline, recordings never leave the device ・Custom accounts: any OpenAI-compatible service, such as Cloudflare Workers AI, OpenRouter or Ollama on your own computer ・Set the transcription language per note, plus a second language mixed in ■ AI on top ・AI proofreading adds punctuation and fixes mistakes, with the original kept alongside ・Summary templates for meeting minutes, study notes, to-do lists… several summaries per note ・Works with OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, Groq, Cloudflare (free setup) and more, with fallback models ・Export summaries as PDF or images, share or print them ■ Easy to find and organize ・Attendees and presenters; Discord speakers are filled in for you ・Custom vocabulary for names, brands and jargon, with new words suggested from your corrections ・Search and replace across segments ■ Sync to other apps ・LINE group meeting records: put notes on a group's page, where members read them after signing in with LINE ・Discord channels and custom URLs (webhooks) ■ Privacy ・Recordings and notes stay on your phone; transcription and AI requests go straight from your phone to the services you choose, with your API key ・Only Discord voice notes and LINE group meeting records go through our server: Discord audio is deleted within 24 hours, and LINE keeps only the text of notes you choose to sync, never audio ・API keys are encrypted by the system (iOS Keychain) ・No third-party analytics SDKs; Google AdMob banner ads, which never get your recordings or text ■ App languages 繁體中文, 简体中文, English, 日本語 Great for meeting minutes, lecture notes, interviews, study groups, voice journals and LINE voice messages.
