Voice notes

Voice notes to text, tidied into notes you can use.

Talk through an idea on a walk or between tasks, or upload a voice memo. Sondeas turns the ramble into a clean note, a to-do list or an email draft, with the recording kept beside it.

How it works

Talk now. Tidy never.

  2. Step 2

    Get every word

    A timestamped transcript, and the recording kept beside it, so nothing you said is lost.

A clean note, not a ramble

Filler words and false starts go. Your points stay, in your order and your words, with the recording beside the note.

Who it is for

For people who think out loud.

Three common situations. If one sounds like you, the 7-day trial covers plenty of short notes.

  • You think best while walking

    Ideas arrive on a walk, in the car park or between meetings, when typing is not an option. Record on your phone in a tap.

  • You get voice messages you would rather read

    Long voice messages pile up in your chats. Upload the file from WhatsApp or your voice memo app.

  • You draft by talking

    Writers, founders and anyone who gets stuck at a blank page: talk through the email, the post or the plan first.

Privacy

Private by default.

Your voice notes are stored encrypted. Add a passphrase lock and your notes are stored under a key wrapped by your passphrase.

  • Encrypted by default

    Recordings, transcripts and notes are encrypted in transit and at rest.

  • A passphrase lock

    Lock your notes with a passphrase. They are stored under a key wrapped by it, and we never keep the passphrase in our database or logs.

  • No tracking without a yes

    Analytics stays off until you agree, and it never receives note text or what you search for.

  • Yours to export or delete

    Download or delete any recording or note whenever you want. Deleting your account deletes your workspace.

It tidies your words, it does not add to them. The recording and the full transcript stay beside every note, so you can check any line against what you actually said, and delete both whenever you want.

Questions

Before you hit record

Anything else? The help centre covers recording, billing and privacy, or write to us.

Can I upload voice memos and WhatsApp voice messages?
Yes. Upload MP3, M4A, WAV, MP4, WebM or OGG files, including phone voice memos and WhatsApp voice messages, up to 2 GB.
Will it change what I meant?
It is built to tidy your words, not add to them. The recording and the full transcript stay beside every note, so you can check any line against what you said.
Can I choose the style of the note?
Yes. Pick clean up, notes, summary, message or your own instructions, then make another version from the same recording whenever you like.
Does it work without a connection?
You need a connection to transcribe. If you lose signal while recording, the audio is saved on your device and uploads when you are back online.
Which languages can I speak?
You can transcribe in 38 languages, or let Sondeas detect the language, and translate any note into 100 languages.
What does it cost?
Pro and Clinician start with 7 days free, card required. Pay as you go is $3 an hour of audio and hours you buy never expire. Pro is $15 a month ($12 billed yearly) with 10 fast hours and unlimited standard transcription. Notes, lists and emails never cost extra.
