Every conversation worth keeping, kept. Recordd is a personal library for the conversations you'd otherwise forget. Walks, phone calls, doctor's visits, kitchen debates, the meeting that mattered, the story Dad tells every Sunday. Press record. Recordd transcribes it, labels who said what, and keeps the audio too, so you can hear those voices again years from now. MOST APPS TRANSCRIBE, THEN THROW THE AUDIO AWAY. WE KEEP EVERYTHING. Other apps turn a conversation into text and delete the recording. Recordd keeps both, the words and the voices. Ten years from now, you'll still be able to hear Dad tell that story, hear the way Mom laughed, hear your daughter's first attempt at grace. JUST PRESS RECORD One tap on iPhone. One click on Mac. Recordd captures the moment and does the rest: transcription, speaker labels, summaries, chat. The audio stays. NEVER LOSE A RECORDING Recordd is built so a recording can't slip through the cracks. As you record, audio is saved to your device crash-safe, moment by moment, and streamed to your private cloud in parallel for double protection. If the app closes, your battery dies, or your phone reboots mid-recording, it's still there, ready to pick up when you reopen. Run out of storage, lose your phone, or upgrade to a new one, and your recordings are safe in the cloud. Never lose a conversation again. WHO SAID WHAT Recordd automatically labels every voice in the room. Dad, Mom, Lily, the doctor, the client. Search by name and read exactly what someone said, or tap play and hear them say it. ASK YOUR LIBRARY ANYTHING Chat with your recordings. "What did we agree on?" "Who talked about the trip?" "When did Mom mention the appointment?" Your archive answers back. EVERY VOICE, TAGGED Recordd learns who your people are and files each recording under the right person. Open a person and hear every conversation you've ever had with them. EVERY PLACE, REMEMBERED Every recording is pinned to where it happened. Open a map of your life, a small red dot for the wedding toast, the Sunday dinner, the hospital call. FREE UP YOUR PHONE, KEEP EVERYTHING Audio files are big, and a folder full of voice memos quietly eats your storage. Recordd syncs every recording to your private cloud library, so you can clear the audio off your device and reclaim the space, while the transcript, summary, people, and place stay right there. Need the audio again? Stream it or download it back anytime. Unlike most voice memo apps, removing a recording from your phone doesn't automatically remove it everywhere. It stays safe in your library. BUILT FOR THE MOMENTS THAT MATTER • The grandma stories worth passing on • The doctor's appointment you can't remember • The idea you had in the car • The wedding toast, the eulogy, the small confession • The meeting where the decision was actually made • The Sunday call with your mum, kept forever RECORDD PRO Start with 40 minutes of recording free. Recordd Pro unlocks unlimited recording, transcription, summaries, and AI chat. • Weekly: $6.99 per week • Yearly: $99.99 per year Subscriptions are billed to your Apple Account. Your subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings.
