Idea type: Competitive Terrain

While there's clear interest in your idea, the market is saturated with similar offerings. To succeed, your product needs to stand out by offering something unique that competitors aren't providing. The challenge here isn’t whether there’s demand, but how you can capture attention and keep it.

Should You Build It?

Not before thinking deeply about differentiation.

Your are here

Your idea for an AI-powered voice-to-task management app enters a competitive market. There are already many similar products, evidenced by the 28 matches we found. This indicates strong interest in the space, but also a high barrier to entry. Engagement for similar products is high, averaging 14 comments per launch, suggesting people are actively seeking and discussing these types of tools. However, note that although we have no explicit use signal (neither positive or negative), we have a very strong buy signal. This means people are willing to pay for a product like this but it doesn't mean that you automatically will get them to pay for YOUR specific product. To succeed, you'll need a clear differentiator and a compelling value proposition.

Recommendations

  1. Given the crowded market, your first step should be a thorough competitive analysis. Dig into the offerings of tools like TalkNotes, Voicenotes, and Minutes AI, paying close attention to user reviews and identified shortcomings. Focus on identifying gaps in the market or unmet needs that your app can uniquely address. From the user reviews, potential gaps are things like: lack of clear cloud security details, file processing and server location concerns, lack of offline capabilities, lack of integrations with existing tools like Obsidian and Notion, and finally, lack of customizability regarding accents and background noise.
  2. Instead of trying to be everything to everyone, consider nicheing down. Focus on a specific user group (e.g., students, creatives, project managers) or a particular use case (e.g., meeting note-taking, brainstorming, language learning). Tailor your app's features and marketing to resonate with this specific audience. This will not only make marketing easier but also organically give you a differentiation point that your competitors may not have.
  3. Differentiate not only on features, but also on the AI capabilities. Given the number of similar products, you MUST BE able to clearly articulate how your AI will be superior. Will it be able to better understand different accents? Will it have better memory to retain important details? Will it be faster, more accurate or more customizable? Make sure you address this on your landing page.
  4. Prioritize a seamless user experience. Many users of similar apps complain about clunky interfaces, slow performance, and lack of integration with other tools. Invest in a clean, intuitive design and robust integrations to minimize friction and maximize user satisfaction. A lot of users really loved the 'clean UX' of competing products like Voicenotes and MinutesAI, so you should try to emulate this.
  5. Develop a strong brand and marketing message that highlights your app's unique value proposition. Clearly communicate how it solves a specific problem for your target audience and why it's better than the alternatives. A clear and succinct landing page explaining everything should be your first priority. Consider creating explainer videos to demonstrate your unique features and benefits.
  6. Actively engage with your early users and solicit feedback. Use their input to iterate and improve your app. Build a community around your product to foster loyalty and advocacy. Pay close attention to the feature requests and pain points expressed by users of similar apps. Don't be afraid to copy features that users love (such as Obsidian / Readwise integration), but be sure to implement your own unique spin.
  7. Consider a freemium model or offer a free trial to allow users to experience the value of your app before committing to a paid subscription. Given the positive buy signal for this idea, this makes sense. But make sure that the free tier still delivers meaningful value, otherwise you risk losing potential customers.

Questions

  1. Given the existing competition, what are the 2-3 key features that will make your app stand out and attract users away from established players?
  2. How will you ensure the accuracy and reliability of your AI transcription and summarization, especially when dealing with different accents, background noise, and technical jargon?
  3. What is your plan to build a community around your app and foster user engagement, and how will you leverage this community to drive product development and marketing?

TalkNotes - Turn your thoughts into actionable notes, fast

08 Oct 2023 Writing Artificial Intelligence Productivity

Just speak, and let the AI transcribe, clean up and structure your voice. Create clean transcripts, summaries, emails, video scripts and many more. And it works in 50+ languages! Try it for free today!

TalkNotes is receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback for its innovative approach to voice-to-text transcription. Users praise its ease of use, time-saving capabilities, and impressive transcription quality across different languages. Many are excited about the potential iOS app and integration with platforms like Notion and Google Calendar. Users appreciate its ability to declutter thoughts, streamline creative processes, and replace manual note-taking. There are inquiries about the AI technology used, pricing models, and comparisons to competitors. Nico is receiving numerous congratulations and support for the launch.

Users criticize the lack of clarity regarding TalkNotes' advantages over Google Recorder and question AI accuracy with diverse accents. There are requests for a mobile app and the return of a lifetime deal. Users also expressed concerns about file processing, server location, and the discoverability of supported languages on the website. Additionally, there's a complaint about a missing feature requiring manual selection.

dan_mindru

This is so good. Most time I wish the day would last for 32h to get more stuff done. That’s not gonna happen soon but tools like TalkNotes can give you so much of that precious time back. It’s really worth its weight in gold. Love it! 🙌

esus

Oh snap a Nico launch! I added this to http://aitranscriptor.com a while back, I saw so much solid feedback even in the early days. Love to see the audio note market taking off, typing might be a thing of the past for bloggers :D 2h of recording takes out the competition, from the research I've done. (Most max at 15-20 min.) Just saw under Pro Plan: "will allow users to send a recording link to others so they can send you a note", I love this. I've almost purchased pro plans of audio note stuff just for friends, and this resolves that need. :) Congrats again on the launch! Question if I may - Any plans to bring a LTD back? (iirc you had one early on.)

itaih

I got the paid subscription! looks very impressive product, can’t wait to connect it to my Notion notes. 🎉🎊 Tom Orbach sent me here and I’m so happy it happened. Great job man, good luck with your launch today 🔥

compileswift

OK, I tried it out on the Website, and I have to say, with my mixed-up British / Texas accent, it did a crazy good job at transcription from both a microphone and an audio file. This will be a purchase for me to save time in so many content ways. Well done!

esther_osinaiya

This is a pretty cool product! Will definitely try out

mike_met

I really like this, have you thought about a Chrome plugin? I use a few apps like Loom mostly from the browser toolbar shortcut.

goncalo_lousa

This would be super useful for work meetings! Is it the main audience?

ajinkya_bhat

I absolutely love this idea- was looking for exactly this! Do you think you compete directly with something like Google recorder, and if so how is TalkNotes better?

tomorbach

Love it! I've been following your journey over Twitter (x) for a while now, loved the insights on the homepage design and over all #buildinpublic advice that you give. Thanks for making Talknotes, I just tried it and it's SUPER helpful for busy people! Good luck with your launch today:))

cyruszhang99

The iOS app will surely be a killer feature! Could it share from voice memo into the app?

mischamillion

Nico this is amazing work ! I love the concept, the website is super clean and can't wait for the iOS app, i'm always taking notes and this makes it a 1000 times faster, easier to format and turn it into content 🙏 I just LOVE IT !

deleted-4587363

Amazing I would love to record my thoughts is there ay free trial available?

elonsdev

I'm the type of indie dev that slams voice notes of ideas, and have dozens just sitting idle. This is pretty neat. now I can have them organised in text so I can actually search through my mind mess. great product.

angelo_galang

I gave TalkNotes a try, and I'm genuinely impressed. The demo showed that it can turn spoken words into accurate, well-structured notes in minutes, saving hours of traditional note-taking. What I love most is its versatility - you can convert recordings into various formats like notes, transcripts, blog posts, journal entries, and emails. This flexibility is a significant time-saver and a fantastic asset for productivity.

me_me

Getting my thoughts organized has always been difficult. Between journaling, writing down ideas, obsidian, notion... it's just a mess. TalkNotes just works. It's easy to use and does the job just as I expect it. I've caught myself recently recording my thoughts instead of trying to write them down. Saves me a lot of time. It's easier, way faster and I can decide what to do or where to send the notes afterwards. It's like the first stop for my ideas before polishing them or diving more into them. Support is fast and solved my problems immediately. Yeah, this is a keeper for me, I'll be using it and looking forward for the IOS app.

maxecc

So excited by this! I’m always coming up with my best ideas while walking and then completely forget to execute on them. Can’t wait to use this to capture them! Really cool product by one of my favourite makers.

sandeep_bansal

Sounds like an awesome product @nico_jeannen I have been trying to find something similar for a very long time.. For example, when I am listening to an audio book I want to speak and make some notes, when I'm on my Peloton and watching some course on the laptop, I want to take some notes.. Your app will be the best thing to do this... All the very best

briami

Love to see it! Might just have to give the 1 yr a try!

mike_fitzbaxter

Just gave the demo a try, and it was really great... thanks for creating this, I look forward to following your success.

daniel_studzinski

Love this! I often drive 2-3 hours between cities and always have some thoughts that I'm not able to write down. This might be a game-changer for me, will definitely give it a try! Good job @nico_jeannen and congrats on the launch!

shvz

Congrats on the launch Nico, seems to be a great product for taking notes on the fly ( digital nomad ) haven’t try it myself yet but It’s on my list! Impressive the amount of shipping you manage to do! 🔥🔥

shrinivasseenu

Super useful app! Somethn to help me make sense of my mental clutter

andrii_piddubniak

I was looking for a text-to-audio service and TalkNotes is the best thing I found! Accuracy is higher than that of competitors.

emmanuel_odii

Ahh; Showed this to my teammate, he now wants to get it. Congrats on the launch 🎉

rrmdpm

Loved it Nico! Looks like a great time saver tool you have built. Do you plan to build native apps too?

david_bogea

Super useful tbh, always falling asleep when writing documentation but this is actually useful

bonvisions

Amazing! With Talknotes, we no longer need those note and to-do apps. 😎

romaindewolff

Very nice tool, love to use it! Well built, clean and easy to use.

janusz_mirowski

Will test it out 😎🚀

rebecca_hranilovic

🎙️As a product designer, I'm always on the lookout for tools that streamline the creative process, and TalkNotes has truly caught my attention! 🚀 The ability to effortlessly transcribe and clean up voice content and format into the style you want is fantastic. I see it as super useful in research interviews.🗣️📝 Kudos to the TalkNotes team for this innovative solution! Keep up the great work! 👏 👏

nikhil_kumar07

@nico_jeannen Why haven't I discovered this sooner? I'm always jotting down notes on paper or using the Notes app, but having a dependable voice note recorder would be a real game-changer. It's like this has been missing from my life all along! I'm eagerly anticipating the release of the Android app so I can give it a try. 😅

alihassan_io

Congratulations on the launch! I particularly like the convert to tweet or LinkedIn post option. The transcription was pretty spot on. Wondering if there will be a monthly payment option soon.

Voicenotes - AI note-taker that's truly intelligent

13 May 2024 Artificial Intelligence Notes Productivity

Voicenotes is an intelligent note-taking app. Record your thoughts freely, get them transcribed using state-of-the-art AI, and ask about every word you spoke.

Voicenotes is receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback for its design, simplicity, and effectiveness in capturing and transcribing voice notes. Users praise its clean UI/UX, accurate transcription (including bilingual sentences), and helpful AI features, particularly for journaling, note-taking, and productivity. Many users have already purchased lifetime deals and are actively using the app daily, some switching from alternatives like Google Keep. Requests include Apple Watch integration, iOS widgets, better cloud details, Obsidian integration, and options for text input and improved Android app performance. The team, especially Jijo, is congratulated repeatedly.

Users criticized the app for slowness, upload issues, and site unreachability. There are concerns about the AI's accuracy, especially regarding memory and context differentiation. Many requested features like better organization (tags/folders), text input, download/embed options, Obsidian/Readwise integration, and a quick iOS widget. The lack of cloud security details and clarity on the subscription model were also points of concern. Several users found voice notes impractical in certain situations and asked for text options, while some Android users reported issues with voice uploads and signup. Some users expressed reservations about the app's simplicity being compromised by future development.

marclittlemore

I've been using this app for about a month now and love it. I wasn't a fan of voice notes, but it now feels really natural to share my thoughts with it. The transcription is spot on, and I love being able to search through my previous thoughts. Using the AI features is great for understanding insight and context around your notes. I regularly use it for a daily journal, and I'm starting to use it to capture notes for writing tweets and blog posts. I signed up to the believer plan after only a few days of using it. I look forward to seeing the expanded features on their roadmap and think it'll be even more useful. 🎉

guilouback

I think I've never reviewed an app here in PH, but this one... This app, which I've been (happily) using for over a month now (and decided to pay for it right in the beginning), it's the real AI powered app that I really needed. I'm using for register personal journals for me, my family and friends. A real life saver and also my truest second brain for the moment. It's the first app that I actively use in the morning and the last of the day. Couldn't recommend more, to be honest.

charlietaylor

Voicenotes is my favourite app of this kind and I've tried many by now. I bought it immediately after taking my first voice note. The UI is simple and uncluttered. It just works! I'm mainly using it for voice journalling right now whilst going for a walk. Voicenotes managed a 40-min transcription absolutely fine. As for the AI tools I use "main points" and "summarise" on almost every note to remove the fluff. The "Ask me something" prompt is such a good idea and takes into context your previous notes. I haven't used it much but it's a feature that makes me smile. It'll be interesting to use "Ask my AI" further down the line after months of context. This iOS app is amazing - so handy to be able to close the app/lock the screen and continue recording. Highly recommend Voicenotes to anyone considering!

chrisbrogan

I'm a little early to this. Just learned about it today, and then INSTANTLY purchased the whatever-they-called-it upgrade that let me buy it for life or whatever. This is *exactly* the functionality that I wanted. I *thought* was getting it from pi.ai (sorry, Reid and Mustafa), but I'm all for this. I wanted a way to audio journal and then query the responses, and this requires a concept of "memory," and while pi.ai said they could remember things, that proved to be inaccurate. Keep in mind, this is day 1 of me using this app. Maybe I'll feel grumpy about this too. Only...wait for it... time will tell. (That was lame. But then, so am I.)

jofinjo

I've been a user for 1 month+ now and recently upgraded to paid. This just works perfectly for my needs. Before the iOS app came out, it got a place on my home screen as a browser shortcut! Loving it. I use this primarily to capture random thoughts that flash into my mind randomly. Happens the most when I am running or driving. Feature requests: * Watch app * Carplay app Hope to see them soon!

earthcrosser

I've come across many of this kind of tools. But I just refunded them as I don't see a regular use for them and I found them to be inconsistent. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. But VoiceNotes was different. One surprise that I got was it was able to transcribe my bilingual sentences, accurately. Unbelievable! So, I decided that this one's a keeper. I use it every time I have an idea, especially when I want to remember my dreams, which are hard to recall. So taking notes by voice is the best way to track them. ;-) Looking forward for more improvements, like organizing my notes by tags or folders.

ashish__

Bought it after I made my first note. It's thoughtful, personal and simple. The expansion possibilities are endless and I hope to see them accomplished as the app grows. All the best to the team!

mindcharting

Since incorporating Voice Notes into my daily routine, I've observed a significant acceleration in my writing process. Previously, fleeting thoughts would either go uncaptured or end up as poorly written, incoherent notes that failed to evolve into structured written pieces. Where once only a fraction of my ideas would make it to a hastily jotted down form—often ending up as a jumble of words in my digital note-taking app, never to be revisited—things have drastically changed. With Voice Notes, the instant a thought arises, it's captured clearly and concisely, ready to be refined, organized, and used effectively. Whether it's for communicating ideas, sharing thoughts, composing emails, or drafting blog posts, this tool has transformed my ability to turn spontaneous ideas into meaningful content. What stands out to me, aside from the obvious improvement in thought capture and processing, is the app's user interface. It's straightforward and intuitive, making the experience of using Voice Notes not just productive but genuinely enjoyable. This seamless integration into my workflow encourages regular use and opens up possibilities for revisiting and refining thoughts at a later date, something I greatly appreciate. In summary, voice notes.com has become an indispensable part of my daily writing and thought-capturing process. Its impact on my productivity and the quality of my work is profound. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their creative process. This product review, incidentally was created using the Voice Notes app and a single AI prompt within the Voice note app to make the draft coherent. ( https://voicenotes.com/s/6NLxd9 ) Cheers @aleesha_john and @jijosunny for building this amazing product.

lewislebentz

I have used this app for a few days now, I will probably upgrade to the paid account. Love how active the devs are and how fast the product is improving. I see a lot of potential here. Voice notes aren't how I'd usually want to create notes personally, but I think it'll help with articulating myself and allow me to work faster. The AI addition is a great benefit too - I can only see this getting better and better. Good luck with the product launch!

rohitrs7

I am genuinely thrilled to be one of the early birds to get on board—it's truly a remarkable tool and it feels great to back such a fantastic project. It would be awesome if there could be a smooth integration with Obsidian, as it's my go-to app for jotting down all my thoughts and ideas. I use it as a second brain. If the team could share any plans about making this happen, it would be super appreciated!

kinabalu

@jijosunny congrats on such a very cool and minimalist tool with a ton of functionality. bought a few more Believer accounts as well because I love how well it works! As soon as I used it for a few minutes I wanted to have the notes in Obsidian so built a plugin for syncing between the two https://github.com/mysticcoders/... making it a daily driver of insights and smart note taking for me!

tonypaul_hb

I've used different note-taking tools, from Google Docs to Evernote, but nothing worked. Manual data entry was a big bottleneck for a lazy ass like me. Lately, I have been using WhatsApp Groups to store these thoughts. I used to create a group with a friend, kick him/her out, and then have me as the group's sole member. Then, I drop voice notes that I hear when traveling or stuck somewhere. But still searching was a big problem. Voicenotes solved those problems, and I'm glad I got a lifetime deal.

geek4891

This is a game changer for me! It's a indispensable tool in a world full of constant shining new objects, new ideas and so much noises in our brain! I use it to execute the "Getting Things Done" method, to do my brain-dumps into this trusted "Inbox" and organize my "Next Actions" I use it to store my thinkings, my ideas and then "talk to myself" to crystalize my most valuable / impactful action items. It allowed me to think better and deeper, and reflect on my priorities and meanings. I signed up 10 minutes after trying it. It was like... OMG this is awesome! I'd encourage everyone to give it a try too! - TT

george_nurijanian

A really well-designed simple product that does a lot. Evernote should have gone this route. Thanks for making it. Bought the lifetime deal without hesitation, it was a steal.

hhtps

Voicenotes has proven to be an exceptional transcription tool for boosting productivity. It's not only efficient but also cost-effective, especially considering that I was fortunate enough to secure a lifetime plan! This app integrates smoothly into my daily routine, without necessitating any additional AI support subscriptions. It's remarkable in its ability to accurately transcribe, capturing even the subtle nuances of speech, which is crucial for my work - btw, I'm a Malay speaker and it works really well. Can't wait to see what's coming since OpenAI just introduced GPT-4o. Voicenotes has unquestionably become an indispensable part of my productivity application suite.

rrhoover

I've always been very interested in voice-driven experiences. Will play with this. Also, I like the logo. Kudos to whoever designed it. :)

terrence_kelleman

THIS is what my life was missing! Thank you! Just downloaded, created a note seamlessly and already feel like excited to have a place to compile all my observations, insights and inspiration. I used to use Evernote a lot, then Medium and now just a basic notes app but this is going to be 🔥🔥🔥

notealoud

I’m a big fan of voice notes. Since I came across Voicenotes recently, it’s become my favourite app for recording voice. Recording daily log notes is something I do every day. Those small moments are easy to capture. I especially like the ability to share notes or copy and paste the transcripts elsewhere. Voicenotes is a key productivity tool for me and I’m having fun finding different use cases. My husband, who is blind, is also a fan. He relies on voice and has been using the app to create Instagram and blog posts, and WhatsApp messages.

jotzilla

I've been using the app for a while. voicenotes.com is now my go-to app for converting my ideas in voice format to article threads. https://voicenotes.com/s/gPF811

I love this tool. I started using it last month, and it instantly became my go-to way of journaling. Now I speak into it for at least 1 hour every day. This is the fastest a new tool has integrated into my life.

I've been using Voicenotes for about a week and I can't think of a day I haven't used it for a todo item or for creating a daily journal (Oh wait... I can check). The summarizing features are good ("list all todos for the last two days") and I expect I will find additional features as I continue using it. Looking forward to seeing what improvements they have in store.

I've been using Voicenotes to keep track of my to-dos and for my social media content. I just record my thoughts and create structured content out of them. It's the best voice to note product that I've used so far ✨❤️

mike_savory

Been using Voice Notes now for a couple of weeks and wow it's just great to be able to brain dump and then have something craft a to-do list, summary and key points list! Great bit of software!

Just made the payment for the lifetime deal! Thanks, guys!

Fortunately, I secured a lifetime subscription the next day of Sunny's Twitter announcement during the initial launch. I'd recommend you do the same. Value is immense, and saves tons of time and effort. My personal experience - It is such a delight to use this product, I have it on my phone and desktop. Replaced my Apple voice memos. The best part is asking questions and getting answers esp when your notes are very lengthy and you don't wanna scroll through lengthy transcription. My feedback after using it for 1 month - On the left panel where there are hashtags, it would be nice to have a number/label to showcase a number of notes within same the hashtags - Sometimes, I want to ask a question to a certain note, not all notes at once. I still quite find it difficult to do that. In the list of AI actions ( Summarise, Email, Tweet ), could you include, "Ask Question" so that we can interact with a certain note exclusively? I found it. It is under create -> ask custom instructions -> select a note ). It would be easier if "Ask my AI" had an option to choose all notes or a particular note - On several occasions, I've recorded a voice note, but it never got uploaded. Maybe a loader could indicate progress or notify when it's ready to use. - Voice notes transcriptions are really useful for lengthy notes ( For example - I've notes which are 5/6 page scrolls in length). Wish there was a way to highlight the text so that I can quickly glimpse important lines without asking AI. - I'm afraid of accidental deletion; a visible "Trash" can give me less anxiety because I can always restore items from it. - At the moment, it shows the date of the record but not the time. It helps me recollect easier with the time associated with the title

This is a very accurate tool, and always pushing new updates. The founder is reputed and successful. Sometimes, my co-founder and I discuss a topic for 10 minutes. We record it with VoiceNotes. And are positively surprised how well it understood and structured our chaotic discussion. We didn't find a similar tool with that excellent output quality till now.

samsadlonka

A very useful and convenient application, I started using it daily. It seems that this will increase my productivity!😅 I noticed that my flattering scenario lacks some kind of quick widget on the main screen of the phone to dictate some thought on the go and save it, are you planning to add widgets on ios?

greeshma_anantharaman_

Love the design! Gonna use it for all kinds of note taking!

5harath

Absolutely in love with this app! The design, the simplicity and the team made me an early believer since day 1. Super congrats Jijo and Aleesha ❤️ PS: Can't wait to dive into a lot of details on my pod 😃

alan_dweck

So thoughtfully built, and works like a charm! I'm loving Voicenotes - congrats on your launch 🚀

anvartk

I’m not usually not one to take many notes, but thanks to the Voicenotes app, I can definitely see myself becoming hooked on it. Thanks Jijo and Aleesha!

naman_agrawal3

Wow! Till now my Memos were full of such voice notes and I can't tell how much I have struggled to find when I needed them the most. Would love to try this. Congratulations on the launch guys! :D

sgroiga

Wooow, I found my new note-taking tool that I will probably use every day from now until the end of my days 😅😂🤣. Honestly, I am love this idea, absolutely magical and it works with multiple languages too! Amazing. But it is not clear to me what is offered? You can create an unlimited number of voice notes, is that right? What happens if you stop the subscription?

priyanka27

This is amazing 😻!! What a great product you built. I tried, I used and I love it! Bravo 👏🏽

kmanderuk

Nice simple idea that's perfectly executed. I'd love to see something similar for some B2B workflows (like creating tasks in Asana or so).

mniroula

Amazing. The best part, it understands different accent. This saves tremendous amount of time while copying and pasting the transcript on different channels like Slack and Project management tools. As a Product Manager I can use it on different things like user feedback, minutes summary, task details, comments and many more. Congratulations for the amazing work and the launch to Product Hunt. Cheers!!

bethany_cutmore_scott

I’m always on the lookout for a new and improved AI notetaker 🤓 excited to try this one out. On first glance the design is really sleek and clean

phani2930

congratulations Sunny and Aleesha!! have taken the life time deal and have been using it for 3 days. great UX!! Waiting for the new features!! All the best!!

lewis502

@jijosunny & Aleesha, congrats on the launch! I've been using Voicenotes for about a month now, and it's been my go-to app and one of the most utilized (#120 of 9965! in the rankings): great work, and congrats on such a great offering that drives tremendous value at an affordable cost! I love this product's refined simplicity. I've used a lot of notetaking apps, but this has been by far the stickiest and most utilized. Keep up the great work, and I'm glad I was an early adopter of this gem!

fajarsiddiq

CONGRATULATIONS ON THE LAUNCH!!!! This is the future of AI Note taking. Great for meetings!

fabio_scalini

Incredibly useful for novels development.

leticiaamerico__

I’ve been using it for over 2 weeks as a voice journal and I’m loving it, it’s helping me to organise my thoughts and all my ideas. Plus I love that we can ask questions too based on what we added. My first language is Portuguese and it even understands my accent, the transcription is pretty cool! Thanks for that!

claire_hodson1

I love it. I'm mainly using it to journal, track things and record ideas before they disappear out of my mind. And because you can ask questions about your notes you don't have to trawl through pages of a journal or spreadsheets to find anything. Brilliant!

neelraman

Brand new user, having created and shared my first voice note today. I like it and can see many use cases once I can connect with other apps I use daily, such as Notion and other writing tools. I'd love to have the option to download notes as audio and/or text files, or have the option to embed them. I look forward to the new updates in the coming weeks and months. Congrats on your launch! 👏

campak

Been an early user of VoiceNotes and find it to be one of the best ways to take notes

bradydowling

A product like this is actually the very first iteration of my idea for Neurture! Really excited to try this out and I love the pricing on this. Congrats on the launch!

kostandinangjellari

Great job on the launch! I have been using Voicenotes for a bit and love its simplicity. Excited for a mobile version!

compileswift

Having used VoiceNotes I decided to jump on in early with the believer plan because I truly appreciate the ease of use and having something handy to capture thoughts. Looking forward to using it more.

benjamin_sloutsky

This seems like it would be good to take to a lecture :) Congrats on your launch!

masum_rana2

Good luck with the product launch! Love how active the devs are and how fast the product is improving. I see a lot of potential here. Voice notes aren't how I'd usually want to create notes personally, but I think it'll help with articulating myself and allow me to work faster. The AI addition is a great benefit too - I can only see this getting better and better.

zenda1122

Cool! GPT-4o has just been released, you can try using the latest LLM API

zemartial

Love it. And with the lifetime offer ... you made another believer :)

iryna_sh

Totally in love with this app! I am delighted with the design and simplicity. The audio recording quality is solid, and I really appreciate the option to make to-do lists and summaries.

caitlincheng

This app was a ‘wow I wish I had something like this’ idea that I had for a while. Excited to say, this is everything I’d thought I needed and more. Can’t wait to be a part of this journey - kudos to the team for launching this PLUS to productivity workflows! One suggestion: Would be great if we can ask questions too via voice memos, in addition to typing in the chat window.

andreekeberg

Looks really cool, and seems to work very smoothly! I've tried to achieve something like this using a custom GPT but that obviously gets very messy, so I've definitely been looking for something like this. I also really like the "names to remember" feature, since I have noticed in the ChatGPT app that while it does understand my Swedish very well almost always, sometimes it insists in having "heard" the strangest things, that are not even real words 😂 One tiny thing I thought about would be that the automatic summary (title) would be even more nice if it was done in the same language as the transcription itself instead of always in English! Edit: I notice the same thing with other features such as summaries and to-do lists etc. Should likely be an easy fix if you add an instruction in the system prompts for these to follow the same language as the transcription itself!

jayrebel

This app is really perfect for capturing your thoughts! When journaling, I always have the problem that I think faster than I write. And then somehow my thoughts get lost. Apart from that, they are also structured by days instead of topics. With voicenotes, I just have to speak my thoughts, which is quicker than typing or writing. The app then simply summarises everything and transcribes it (perfect for capturing sudden flashes of inspiration for content creation). I'm sooo glad I decided in favour of this app right from the start.

rednishat

Love this so much! Exploring the new Android apps recently. Thank you guys for this.

dep

Voicenotes is fantastic. The interface is clean and simple and it gives me an easy way to capture my thoughts. The transcription is second to none. Like it's never wrong. Amazing. There's even an android app. Looking forward to using this for years to come.

jonwhitby

Congratulations on launching Voicenotes! This AI-powered note-taking app sounds fantastic. I've just run a few tests, and the voice-to-text accuracy and summarization features are impressive. I'm excited to use it over the next few days to see how well it integrates into my daily routine. Looking forward to getting started and exploring its full potential!

hannieliu

Awesome product!! I've been thinking of this tool for a long time. The amazing part is that it can transform the voice notes to blog, tweets and todo list!!!

oleksandra_vasiukhnyk

Voicenotes is fantastic because it turns spoken words into text in a snap, which is super handy for jotting down ideas, meeting notes, or personal reminders. What really draws me in is its AI feature that can sift through past notes to help spark new ideas. It's like having a personal assistant that keeps getting smarter! Thank you @jijosunny @aleesha_john

yashvjain

Congrats on the Launch! Loved the simplicity and ethos behind Buy Me A Coffee. As a person with ADHD, I write down many tasks. This is because I need to break them down into as many small tasks as possible. Will be giving this a shot!

suryadathan

Incredible app! I will be using this. Thank you for the hardwork and for making us mallus look good as well haha 😆

alexander_okonji

sounds great big congratulations with your new lunch I'm going to check it out and I will leave on my honest review after checking it out cheers.

alexander_okonji

wow sincerely I just downloaded the app and I can see it really picking the words clearly without any glitch I see to be even more better than other tools I have used and this is quite brilliant thumbs up for this great to I wish I could take you out on for a dinner lol cheers

jayant_bhawal

This is incredible! I tried it, and, sure, it's a bit basic right now but the potential it has is AMAZING! The lifetime deal is great too! But I want to try it for a couple of days to see if I'll actually use something like this more regularly. Any details on how long the deal will last?

sean189

I've been using this ever since I got access. Game changer for me. I highly recommend it. Simple interface but powerful.

consimworld

Very happy to see this launch. I was also happy to be an earlier doctor of this platform and I’m really pleased with how it’s helping me in capturing quick notes. One of my first uses of the app was to simply dictate notes and then have VoiceNotes convert it to bullet points for a summary. It worked out great.

sofiarobss

This looks incredibly useful for remote work meetings and brainstorming sessions. How does Voicenotes handle multiple speakers? Congrats and can’t wait to try it!

yashasvi_nikhil

@jijosunny congratulations! This is something i have been looking for quite sometime. Product is very simple to use and user friendly as well. Great work! All the best

kirill_kovalchuk

So far it's been a pleasant experience using voicenotes, it's a little clunky though when you need to ADD to the note. Let's say I have had an idea in the morning, I took a note, and now I want to add to it. How do I do it? You can edit a note, but then you have to type. Overall looking good, if there was a feature to add to existing note using voice would be so much better.

mplebl

Congratulations @jijosunny 🎉 I was impatiently waiting for you guys to launch! So excited to try this out

atmos_black

Great addition to the voice notes space - especially the Ask AI feature! Will you offer the option to always choose Claude instead of GPT? I always prefer Claude over anything else - there is no way back for me. 😅

Echo AI - AI chat note powered by GPT-4

26 Sep 2023 Artificial Intelligence Notes Productivity

An app created for hands-free note-taking.

Echo AI Chat Note's Product Hunt launch garnered positive feedback, with users congratulating the team and expressing interest in the voice note-taking functionality. Questions arose regarding AI memory retrieval, Apple rewards, the product roadmap, and web application availability. Users inquired about calendar integration with Google and Apple, and several wished the team luck. The app was promoted on AI directories, and some users expressed love for the app and asked about integrations with other apps.

cld

Why did we make Echo? We think about these cases: - When people are busy for a while, there is no time or energy to write down the trivial; - When people are tired of organizing, setting schedule, or categorizing tasks; - When people can't free their hands to type; - When people are too lazy to take notes! In all cases, people can’t take notes. Then we thought, speaking can be much easier than typing, why don’t we speak to note? Then Echo , the AI Chat Note, is here. It's name means: Let your memory echo, remember everything with voice only. Our first version will test the most core functions： 1. Speaking to Note: Free our hands and note quickly 2. Ask for Memories: Retrieve notes by asking questions. Get notes easier without organization and classification. 3. Smart schedule assistant: AI organize your notes, judge & organize them into schedule. 4. A portable chatbot: If you want to ask something when you are noting, you can of course connect with chatGPT ;) For everyone who is interested in participating in the test: Just download Echo AI app directly from app store, we have open the free access for all tester in this month!

mark_amouzgar

Congrats to the team for bringing such a thoughtful solution to life! Count me in for the trial. 👏

uxyemi

Congratulations on your launch! I love the concept of voice-driven note-taking and the ease it brings. Particularly intrigued by the 'Ask for Memories' feature. How does the AI prioritize or decide which notes to retrieve when a user asks a question?
