Memo
What it is
Memo turns voice recordings into notes for meetings, ideas, and other recordings. It transcribes audio and can create summaries, action items, and email drafts. Its recording workflow also extracts decisions, risks, and follow-ups. Semantic search lets users ask natural-language questions across their notes, while calendar integration can prepare pre-meeting briefs and post-meeting summaries. Memo says transcription supports seven languages; the App Store listing names English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish. The Free plan costs $0 forever and includes recording and playback, basic transcription, iCloud sync, and five notes per month. Pro costs $5.99/month and adds unlimited recordings and notes, AI summaries and action items, semantic search, calendar integration, multilingual transcription, email drafts, context analysis, risk detection, and priority support. The app is for iPhone only and requires iOS 17.0 or later. Memo says recordings and transcripts are processed on-device and synced through iCloud, and voice data is not stored on its servers.
