Clearminutes

Why we built it

You had a great idea in that meeting. You definitely remembered it. You didn't.

If you have ADHD or dyslexia, meetings are a triple threat: you miss things in the moment, you struggle to take useful notes while listening, and the context-switching wipes your working memory before the call ends. Clearminutes was built so that none of that matters - tap record, talk, get a transcript and a summary you can actually use.

Features

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

On-device transcription

Audio transcribed locally, always. Powered by Parakeet v3 and Whisper Turbo - your words never leave your phone.

Transcript library

Every recording, instantly searchable. Folders, search, bulk organise - find anything in seconds.

Full-text search

Search inside your transcripts. Not just titles - the actual words that were spoken.

Audio playback

Listen back with tap-to-seek. Tap any line to jump straight to it.

Re-transcribe

Switch between AI models. Try Parakeet v3 or Whisper Turbo on the same recording.

Share anywhere

Send transcripts how you want. Share extension, copy, or paste - works with any app.

Extended recording mode

2 hour sessions, no cut-off. Long meetings, field recordings, interviews - no artificial limit.

Auto-titles

No more "New Recording #47". AI generates a title from context - rename or delete it instantly.

Keyword highlights

Find the important parts faster. Key names, action items, and topics shown as tappable chips.

Read it your way

Comfortable reading for everyone. 18pt default text size, up to 32pt - plus playback speed control.

Works offline

No internet required. Record anywhere - underground, on a plane, in a dead zone.

Your data stays on your device

Privacy is the default, not a feature. Nothing is ever uploaded unless you explicitly export.

Transfer to Mac or PC

Send a recording to your Mac or Windows PC over an encrypted peer-to-peer link - no cloud, no upload. Desktop AI summaries in seconds.

Lock Screen controls

Start, pause, and stop recording from the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island - no need to unlock your phone.

Filler-word removal

Auto-strip "um", "uh", and repeated words for a clean transcript. Add your own custom dictionary too.

Apple Watch support

Start and stop recordings from your wrist. Syncs back to your iPhone automatically.
