You write all day. Slack messages, follow-up emails, the text you rewrite three times before sending. Nobody tells you whether any of it was easy to read until after it is already gone. Prose is a notes app with a readability grade in the corner. It updates every time you change a word, so you can see whether your writing is getting clearer before you send it to anyone. There is nothing between your thought and your writing. No formatting toolbar, no font picker, no checkboxes, no settings to configure. You open a note and start typing. Because there is almost nothing to the app, it opens instantly and never slows down no matter how many notes you have. Tap the grade chip and Prose tells you three things. Whether your reader can follow what you wrote, how long it will take them to read it, and how many words you have (so you know if what you wrote fits in a LinkedIn post, a tweet, or a cover letter before you paste it somewhere and find out the hard way). The notes in Prose are for the things you write that need to land. The email after a kickoff where you want to make sure you and the client heard the same thing. The toast you are giving at your friend's wedding tomorrow night. The message to someone you have not talked to in a while where you need to get the words right. The note to a colleague where you are explaining something complicated and you want them to understand it the first time through. Warren Buffett explains the insurance business in sentences a twelve-year-old can follow. He writes at a sixth grade reading level. Most people write at twelfth because school taught them that longer sentences and bigger words meant better writing. The people reading your Slack messages at 4pm on a Tuesday do not agree. Prose saves every keystroke automatically. Close the app mid-thought and come back whenever you want. Your draft is where you left it. Everything stays on your phone and nothing is uploaded anywhere.

AutoCorrect AI — talk instead of type, anywhere on your phone. Stop thumb-typing. Tap the mic, say what you mean, and AutoCorrect AI turns your voice into clean, ready-to-send text — then drops it right where your cursor is, in any app. Messages, Mail, Notes, Slack, your group chat: just speak. And it doesn't only transcribe. It finishes the writing. Turn on Auto-polish and AI cleans up the grammar, drops the "ums" and filler, adds punctuation, and shapes your words into something you'd actually send — in the tone you choose. Why people love it • It sounds like you wrote it. Optional AI polish turns rambling speech into clean, finished text. • Pick your tone. Casual, Professional, or Snarky — the same dictation comes out matching the vibe. • It spells names right. Other dictation tools butcher people's names. AutoCorrect AI learns the correct spelling (and can pull from your Contacts) so "Caitlin," "Katelyn," and "Kaitlyn" come out the way you mean. • Works in every app. A built-in keyboard puts the mic one tap away, wherever you're typing. • Lands where you need it. Your finished text inserts right at the cursor — and it's copied to the clipboard too, so you can paste anywhere. • Type when you'd rather. Switch to typing any time; on Mac, use your hardware keyboard and Copy or drag the text into any app. How it works 1. Switch to the AutoCorrect AI keyboard and tap the mic. 2. It opens the app and starts recording — just talk. 3. Tap stop. With Auto-polish on, your text is cleaned up in your chosen style. 4. Swipe back to your app — your polished text is waiting at the cursor. Your voice stays on your device Speech is transcribed on-device using Apple's speech recognition — your audio never leaves your phone. AI polish is optional: only when you turn it on is your text (never your audio) sent to be cleaned up. Leave it off and nothing is sent. Built for iPhone, iPad, and Mac Use it on the go, or on an Apple Silicon Mac with your keyboard and Copy/drag-and-drop. Talk. Polished. Done.
