The friction
Business now runs on voice notes. A supplier confirms a price, a client moves a date, a partner makes a promise, all inside a minute of audio that nobody can search a week later. Chat apps transcribe one note at a time, then forget it.
What the lab has delivered
- Name, logo, app icon and brand book, in the same family as Epistell
- A Mac app with its own window and Dock icon that transcribes on the Mac in 99 languages
- No dragging: notes saved or AirDropped to the Mac are transcribed on arrival, then the audio is deleted
- An iPhone shortcut that sends a note to the Mac in one tap
- A private archive, filed by person and chat, searchable as you type
- Whole WhatsApp chat import, written up as a PDF record with a fingerprint of every audio file
- A connector so Claude on the same Mac can answer questions about your notes
- inksaid.com: pricing, founding seats and a library of guides written for search
What comes next
A signed build for the first founding members, then accounts, a daily digest of what you were told and promised, reply drafts and translation.
Screens use sample voice notes and made up names.
