Device-native, private AI notes, no token cost. Capture voice memos, photos, links, videos, and rough ideas. Mindverse uses Apple Intelligence where available to help you find, organize, and transform what you save, then keeps the same notes available on iPhone and Mac through your own Google Drive. AI THAT RUNS ON YOUR IPHONE Mindverse uses Apple Intelligence where available. Your personal note content can be searched, organized, and transformed without a separate cloud AI account or per-token charges from Mindverse. CAPTURE MORE THAN TEXT - Photograph whiteboards, documents, or receipts and make the text searchable. - Save articles and YouTube videos with their content attached, not just the URL. - Write in Markdown or plain text. - Share from other apps directly into Mindverse. - Record voice memos alongside your written notes. ASK YOUR OWN NOTES Ask a question and get an answer grounded in what you saved, with the source notes still in view. Mindverse uses Apple Intelligence where available by default. TURN NOTES INTO USEFUL OUTPUTS - Summarize a long note. - Clean up rough writing. - Create flashcards. - Turn notes into checklists. - Combine several notes into one. - Run a one-off prompt or write a reusable skill in plain English. GOOGLE DRIVE SYNC. NO LOCK-IN. Google Drive sync is included. Mindverse syncs notes, photos, and voice recordings across your devices through your own Drive, not Mindverse servers. Every note remains a plain Markdown file on your device, so you can open it in other tools or keep a readable backup without Mindverse. There are no ads, no proprietary note format, and no per-token charges for on-device AI. BUILT FOR IPHONE AND MAC Mindverse supports App Intents and Apple Intelligence on iPhone and Mac where available. Your notes remain portable Markdown files and stay in sync through your own Google Drive.

Yantra is your second brain — a private place to capture what matters, find it again later, and act on it. Everything you save lives on your device. Capture, transcription, search, your calendar, tasks, and reminders all run on-device for free — no account, no subscription, no server in the middle. Add your own AI key only if you want to chat with your notes or auto-summarize what you save; that's the only time anything leaves your phone, and it goes straight from your device to the provider you chose. CAPTURE ANYTHING • Voice memos, transcribed on-device as you speak • Quick text notes and a daily journal • Photos — with on-device text recognition • Saved links — summarized when you add an AI key • Meetings — long-form recording with speaker labels TASKS, BUILT IN • Capture to-dos with a due date and priority • See what's Overdue, due Today, and Upcoming at a glance • Turn any note into tasks, or promote a meeting's action items to your list • Tasks show up in your Agenda and in Ask ASK YOUR NOTES (optional AI) Add your own Anthropic (Claude) key to chat with everything you've saved.

YOUR CALENDAR, BUILT IN See your agenda from any calendar on your iPhone (iCloud, Google, Exchange), and turn notes and action items into events. MEETING REMINDERS Get a heads-up the evening before, and again shortly before each meeting — so you can review any notes you prepared. Yantra even tells you how many of your saved notes look related. All scheduled on-device. BRING YOUR OWN KEY (optional) The basics are free and on-device. For AI features, Yantra uses your own Anthropic key — you pay the provider directly at cost, no markup, no middleman.
