You said it. Then you forgot it. brevva turns your voice into structured notes, automatically. Record a thought while driving, a meeting with a coworker, a reminder before bed. Come back later and find a clean title, a summary in your own words, and a list of what you committed to, with deadlines already set. Everything happens on your iPhone. No cloud. No accounts. No subscriptions. How it works You tap record and talk. brevva transcribes your words, identifies who said what, and extracts the important parts: what was decided, what needs to happen, and who is responsible. It organizes everything into four views. To-dos: every action item from every recording, grouped by urgency. Late, today, this week, later. Swipe to complete. Notes: all your recordings in one place. Voice notes and meetings, each with a title, summary, and the full transcript. Calendar: your week at a glance. Recordings appear alongside your calendar events so you can see what happened and what is coming. People: the people in your conversations. Who you are seeing next, what is open between you, and when you last spoke. brevva builds this from your voice, not from typing. Your morning briefing brevva gathers your day from your calendar, your to-dos, and your recent notes, then writes you a short personal paragraph delivered as a notification. You wake up and know what matters today. Plays back what you said Tap any sentence in a transcript and hear the exact moment. Speaker labels show who said what. Key moments are marked so you can jump to the important parts. Works with your keyboard brevva comes with a custom keyboard for quick dictation anywhere on your phone. Privacy is not a feature. It is the architecture. Every recording is transcribed and processed on your iPhone. Nothing is sent to a server. There is no account to create. There is no data to breach. You own everything. $49, one time. No subscription. No in-app purchases. Requires iPhone 15 Pro or later.
SecDocKeeper

Keep your most sensitive documents secure, local, and strictly in your hands. SecDockKeeper is a local-first, end-to-end encrypted vault designed for the files you cannot afford to lose or leak. Whether it's your passport, medical records, tax forms, or confidential contracts, SecDockKeeper ensures your data stays firmly on your device. There are no accounts to create, no cloud servers to trust, and absolutely zero telemetry. IMPORTANT: Your vault is secured by a master password known only to you. If you lose your password, no oneβnot even usβcan recover your data. CORE FEATURES Military-Grade Encryption: Your master password derives a 256-bit key on the device using Argon2id. Every single document gets its own AES-256-GCM data key (envelope encryption). Smart On-Device OCR: Automatically scan and tag imported images (like passports, IDs, and invoices). All text recognition happens entirely locally, meaning your data never leaves your phone. Total Organization: Group your documents into folders, apply color-coded tags, and filter with a single tap. All metadata, names, tags, and full-text search indexes are secured inside a locked SQLCipher database. Hidden "Stealth" Tags: Need plausible deniability? Create hidden tags that are stored only as HMAC hashes. They are entirely invisible in lists and autocomplete, revealing their linked documents only when you type the exact tag name into the search bar. Secure Split-Sharing: Safely share individual documents. Export a file as an encrypted .sdkblob and a separate .sdkkey.json. Send the file over one channel and the key over another for maximum security. Portable Offline Backups: Export your entire vault as a single, fully encrypted archive (blobs and database only, no key material). Easily restore it on a new device using your original master password. Biometric Convenience: Quickly unlock your vault using Face ID or Touch ID. Your master password remains safely sealed in your deviceβs platform keychain. Anti-Snoop Defaults: The app immediately auto-locks when sent to the background. Decrypted plaintext is strictly short-lived, and temporary viewing directories are automatically wiped every time the vault locks. ABSOLUTE PRIVACY We believe privacy is a default, not a feature. SecDockKeeper contains absolutely zero analytics and no third-party SDKs in the hot path. There are no network calls for document handling. The only journey your files take is from your device's file picker directly into your encrypted, on-device vault. OPEN SOURCE & AUDITABLE Trust requires transparency. SecDockKeeper is 100% open source under the Apache 2.0 license. Our cryptography, database schema, and import paths are fully auditable by anyone.
