What is Thinklet?

Thinklet - AI Voice Notes is an AI-powered note-taking app that lets you create notes by speaking, then organizes those notes using transcription and an AI assistant. Its core purpose is to turn voice input into searchable, editable notes you can revisit and ask questions about.

The app is designed to support multilingual transcription and on-device AI processing, with notes accessible across Apple devices via iCloud sync. It also includes a chat feature that can answer questions about what you’ve written, using memory across your notes.

Key Features

• Voice-first note taking with organized output: speak to create notes and structure your thoughts without manually typing everything from scratch.
• Real-time transcription with multi-language support: transcription is available in 60+ languages.
• On-device AI processing for privacy: AI processing runs directly on your device (“no cloud required, no data leaves your phone”).
• AI chat with memory across notes: ask questions about your written notes; the assistant has memory across all your notes to help surface insights and connections.
• Notion-style editor for writing and organizing: a clean, distraction-free interface for editing and organizing notes.
• iCloud sync across Apple devices: access notes anywhere via iCloud.
• Biometric lock: protect access using Face ID/Touch ID.
• Premium features include: unlimited notes, voice transcription in 50+ languages, AI-powered chat, iCloud sync, and multiple AI model options.

How to Use Thinklet

1. Install Thinklet on an iPhone or iPad (requires iOS 18 or later for iPhone, and iPadOS 18 or later for iPad).
2. Start a new note by speaking; use the transcription feature to convert your voice into text in the language you’re speaking.
3. Review and edit the generated note in the built-in editor, then organize as needed.
4. Use the AI chat to ask questions about your notes and request related details or connections.
5. Enable biometric lock for added access control, and rely on iCloud sync to access notes on other supported Apple devices.

WhisperKit improvements mentioned in the version history include choosing between Apple built-in speech recognition and WhisperKit, downloading different Whisper models in Settings, and using a “Record & Process Mode” that transcribes a full recording at once.

Use Cases

• Students capturing lectures: record spoken content in class and review organized notes afterward, using transcription in supported languages.
• Professionals in meetings: capture meeting discussions as voice notes, then edit the resulting text and ask follow-up questions through AI chat.
• Writers organizing ideas: speak ideas quickly, keep them organized in an editor inspired by note-taking workflows, and query the assistant for details across notes.
• Multilingual workflows: transcribe speech in the original language and optionally translate non-English speech to English in real time.
• Privacy-focused note taking: keep transcription and AI processing on-device (per app privacy description) while syncing your notes via iCloud.

Alternatives

• On-device voice transcription notes apps: look for note apps that combine speech-to-text with an editor and offline/on-device transcription options.
• General note-taking apps with voice input: some note apps support recording and transcription workflows; these may be better suited if you primarily want a traditional notes layout without AI chat tied to note memory.
• AI chat assistants that support document or note Q&A: alternatives may focus on asking questions about your content, but may not offer the same voice-first transcription and note editor workflow described for Thinklet.
• Privacy-focused recording + transcription workflows: for users who prioritize privacy, consider solutions that keep transcription local and provide a structured document editor afterward.
