About

VoiceBrain

Features
Read full description

VoiceBrain helps you capture ideas the moment they strike. Speak a thought — or type it — and VoiceBrain transcribes it, understands it, and files it as a task, note, reminder, or calendar event, automatically. Just talk (or type): • "Remind me to call the dentist tomorrow at 10" becomes a reminder. • "Buy oat milk and coffee" becomes a task on your list. • "Team sync Thursday at 3" becomes a calendar event. • "Idea: a walking tour app for Berlin" becomes a note. Everything you capture lands in one place, sorted by type, so you act on it later instead of losing it. Features • Capture by voice or text — tap to record, or type it out, and mix both in one entry • Automatic transcription and smart sorting into tasks, notes, reminders, and events • Shared spaces — keep the things you and someone else both need in sync • Live co-editing — edit a shared note together in real time • Apple Calendar integration, so spoken events join the rest of your day • Sign in with Apple, no separate password VoiceBrain is a focused, private tool: no ads, no third-party trackers. Your recordings and transcripts are used only to give you back organized entries.
