PRIVATE BY DEFAULT The built-in speech and translation models run locally on Apple Silicon, so the core features work offline and your audio stays on your device. No account required. No ads. No tracking. FEATURES - Live: real-time speech-to-text with optional auto-translation - Bridge: hold a two-way, face-to-face conversation across languages - Voice: turn text into natural-sounding speech with multiple voices - Practice: phrasebook drills and pronunciation scoring - Translate: fast text translation across many languages OPTIONAL CLOUD PROVIDERS Prefer a specific engine? You can optionally connect your own provider โ such as Gemini, OpenAI, Azure, Deepgram, ElevenLabs, or Google Cloud โ using your own API key for extra languages and voices. Cloud features are off by default; when you enable one, data is sent only to the provider you choose. Universal app for iPhone and iPad.

Askive answers in a sentence or two and shows exactly where the answer came from. ANSWERS WITH PROOF Every answer cites its sources. Tap a citation to open the file at the right second of the video or recording, or the right page of the document. UNDERSTOOD AUTOMATICALLY Each item you add gets a clear title, a short summary, tags and key points. Audio and video also get a timestamped transcript you can read and tap to jump around. ONE PLACE FOR YOUR MEDIA โข Photos and screenshots โข Videos and screen recordings โข Voice memos, meetings and lectures โข PDFs and other documents PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your library is visible only to your account. No ads and no tracking. Delete any item, or your whole account, from inside the app whenever you want. Sign in with just your email: no password to remember.
