Dictantor
Record and transcribe meetings locally on Apple devices, 25 languages
Visit website →About
Dictantor is a searchable voice notebook that runs entirely on your device. It records meetings and voice notes across iPhone, Apple Watch, and Mac — capturing both microphone and system audio together on Mac. Transcription happens locally in 25 European languages with speaker separation between your voice and everyone else.
Search returns you to the exact spoken moment: find a phrase, open the matching transcript, and jump to the audio around that timestamp instead of replaying the whole file. Automatic summaries are generated on-device for longer recordings — no cloud processing needed.
No account, no subscription, no tracking. Recordings and transcripts stay on your device. Optional sync through your private iCloud. Completely free.
