Voice Notebook
Richmond, British Columbia, Canada
What it is
Voice Notebook converts speech and audio files into text, with tools for dictation, transcription, and editing across web and mobile options. Its Android app lets users dictate notes, save them locally or send them to cloud services such as Google Drive, and edit text with replacements, capitalization controls, and undo. The website transcribes audio or video from HTML5 media, YouTube clips, and computer files. A Chrome extension adds voice input to website text fields, while Windows, Mac, and Linux integration modules provide voice input in applications. Separate Android and iOS apps are available; the iOS app requires iOS 11.0 or later. The basic web service is free for audio files up to 15 minutes. Android offline recognition needs a local language pack. Speech data goes to the recognition provider selected on the phone, usually Google Speech Services. The Android privacy policy says the app does not store spoken or typed content or collect personal data, and also describes advertising ID use and analytics statistics.
