Turn every voice into text you can work with. KolWrite is a focused transcription workspace. Record a meeting, an interview, or a lecture — or import any audio or video file you already have — and KolWrite turns it into an accurate transcript that knows who said what. Then edit it like a document, ask AI about it, and export it anywhere. THE KEYBOARD THAT TYPES WITH YOUR VOICE The built-in KolWrite Keyboard works in any app on your phone. Open WhatsApp, Mail, Notes — tap the mic, speak, and watch your words appear. No copy-paste, no switching apps. Set it up once and dictate everywhere. TRANSCRIPTS THAT KNOW WHO'S TALKING • Speaker labels with names, not "Speaker 1" — KolWrite remembers the people you work with • Word-level timing: tap any word to hear that exact moment • First-class Hebrew and full right-to-left support, plus multilingual transcription EDIT LIKE A DOCUMENT • Fix a sentence right in the transcript — timings stay intact • Split and merge segments, rename speakers, highlight what matters • Built-in player with speed control that stays in sync while you edit AI THAT WORKS ON YOUR RECORDINGS • Summaries, decisions, and action items from meetings • Ask questions about what was said — the copilot reads the transcript so you don't re-listen • Translate and rewrite without leaving the app YOUR LIBRARY, ON EVERY DEVICE Record on your phone, edit on your Mac or PC. Everything syncs automatically. Works offline and catches up when you're back online. SUBTITLES AND VIDEO Make an SRT or VTT subtitle file from any video or recording. The timing comes from the transcript, so the lines match the picture, and you can check line breaks and right-to-left text before you publish. Translate the transcript into another supported language and export a subtitle file for each language. Or put the captions on the video itself in the built-in video editor. EXPORT ANYWHERE Word (DOCX), PDF, plain text, SRT and VTT subtitles, JSON — with or without speaker labels. MADE FOR REAL WORK Meeting minutes with decisions and action items. Interview quotes you can trace back to the exact timestamp. Customer and support calls. Lectures and classes. Video subtitles you can check line by line before publishing. Voice notes that come back as searchable text. WHAT AFFECTS THE RESULT Background noise, overlapping voices, microphone placement, accents, and specialist vocabulary all change what speech recognition can do. Try a recording that represents your real work and read the passages that matter. No bot has to join your meeting — bring the recording you already have. Transcription in more than 100 languages, with translation between supported languages. App interface: English, Hebrew, Arabic, Spanish, French, Russian, German.
