Dossier
Read full descriptionHide full description
Turn your X bookmarks into a searchable archive with AI titles, summaries, categories and tags. Dossier saves your archive on your device and lets you export it to the tools you use. PAY FOR WHAT YOU IMPORT Connect X to receive 20 free starter credits once per X account. One credit imports and organises one previously unimported bookmark. Already imported bookmarks are skipped without using credits. Check your available X bookmarks before importing: a completed scan costs 0.5 credits and shows how many remain and how many more credits you need. Buy 200 or 1,000 credits when you need more. Purchased credits never expire; no new subscription is required. Prices are shown in your local currency. RESUME YOUR ARCHIVE Imports use pages of up to 90 bookmarks and pause when fewer than one credit remains. Top up to continue the unfinished backlog, including the remainder of a page. Already imported bookmarks are skipped on later pulls; retrying the same interrupted delivery does not charge twice. X may omit unavailable posts, and a scan is a snapshot of the bookmarks X returns. Share individual X links to Dossier to queue them for import. YOUR SAVED ARCHIVE STAYS AVAILABLE Browse, search and export saved content even at zero credits. Credit balances follow your connected X account across devices. Existing purchases remain supported for their paid duration. AI AND PRIVACY With your permission, DeepSeek processes bookmark text, author names and content signals to organise your imports. Choose Apple AI in Settings > AI Engine to organise imports with Apple Foundation Models: Private Cloud Compute on eligible iOS 27 devices, subject to Apple's availability, locale and quota checks, or on-device models on supported devices running iOS 26 or later. Apple selection never switches to DeepSeek automatically. DeepSeek remains a separate choice and processes content only with your explicit permission. Your permanent archive stays on-device. The worker retains a temporary delivery copy for up to 24 hours to recover interrupted pulls, then deletes it, including for Apple imports. Apple AI does not change credit charges: one credit still imports and organises one previously unimported bookmark. Terms of Use: https://mashdev.co.za/terms
VoiceToMD
Read full descriptionHide full description
VoiceToMD is a voice note transcription app that bridges the gap between taking the note and your agents. Capture on iPhone, transcribe on-device, ship as markdown. The resulting markdown lands in iCloud, your email, your favorite notes app, your webhook, your SFTP server, or any iOS Shortcut—and you can send it to all of them at once. VoiceToMD isn't where your notes live. It's how they get there. — ON-DEVICE TRANSCRIPTION — Your iPhone does the work. Every transcription runs locally on the device in your hand—no servers, no API calls, no internet required once the app is set up. Audio stays where it was captured. Three transcription qualities to pick from, scaled to your iPhone. The app recommends the right one during setup; you can switch any time. — EVERY LANGUAGE YOU SPEAK — Speak any language. The app recognizes it automatically—Spanish, Mandarin, Japanese, Arabic, Hindi, and dozens more. All processed on your iPhone, never sent anywhere. — PRESS ONCE. DONE. — Bind the Action Button on iPhone 15 Pro or later. Press it on a locked phone. FaceID authenticates and recording starts before you finish raising the phone. The lock-screen Live Activity carries you through Pause, Stop, Send, and Hold—without ever opening the app. Also: Control Center widget, and iOS Shortcuts. All quick-capture surfaces deliver directly to your default profile's destinations. — YOUR DESTINATIONS — Five destination types: - iCloud Drive folder—markdown files land in any folder you pick - Email—your default mail client, transcript and attachment pre-populated - Webhook—HTTPS POST with bearer-token auth and a configurable body - SFTP—host, port, key or password authentication, base path you control - iOS Shortcut—pass the markdown to any Shortcut you've built Configure multiple destinations per profile. One capture fans out to all of them—your notes app and your automation pipeline, your inbox and your shortcuts—simultaneously, in one tap. — MARKDOWN ANY APP CAN READ — Every note ships with YAML frontmatter—title, created timestamp, profile, destination, duration, audio path. Paragraph breaks fall where the speech actually paused. Speaker labels appear when more than one voice is in the room. Drop into Apple Notes, Obsidian, Notion, or any other app or pipeline without preprocessing. — PROFILES — Configure multiple profiles, each with its own destinations, audio settings, transcription quality, vocabulary priming, and formatting rules. Quick-capture surfaces use your default profile; switch the active profile in one tap.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: VoiceToMD at every 3 weeks against Dossier's every 3 months. Dossier's advantage is iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
