## Description

New in 2.7: paste or type any text and get a summary back, no recording minutes used. Notes now finish transcribing in the background while you get on with your day.

Record the lecture. Get the notes.

YostNotes records your classes, meetings, and calls, then writes them up for you: a full transcript, a summary of what actually mattered, and flashcards to study from. You listen. It writes.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Tap record, then put your phone down and pay attention.
2. YostNotes transcribes every word, with speakers labelled.
3. You get a summary, the key terms, and a set of flashcards.

Or skip the recording entirely. Paste or type any text and get the same summary back.

WHAT YOU GET

Full transcripts
Every word, timestamped. Tap any line to jump straight to that moment in the audio.

Summaries that hold up
An overview, the decisions, the action items, and the key terms. The parts you would have written down yourself if you had not been busy listening.

Flashcards, generated
One conversation becomes a study set. Review what was said instead of rereading it.

A library you can search
Folders, filters, and search across every note you have made. Find the meeting from three weeks ago without remembering when it happened.

Photos alongside your notes
Capture the whiteboard or the slide. It stays with the note it belongs to.

Finishes without you
Stop a recording and lock your phone. Transcribing and summarising carry on in the background, and YostNotes tells you when the note is ready.

BUILT FOR

Students recording lectures who would rather listen than type
Professionals in back-to-back meetings who need the decisions and the action items
Researchers running interviews who need an accurate record
Anyone who thinks out loud and wants it written down

PRIVACY

CloudSync is end-to-end encrypted with a passphrase only you know. Your notes are encrypted on your device before they leave it, so we can never read them. We do not train on your data.

POWERED BY CLAUDE

Summaries, key terms, and flashcards are generated using Anthropic's Claude models. You stay the author and you stay in control.

ALSO INCLUDED

Markdown formatting, PDF export, sharing, and dark mode throughout.

WHAT USERS SAY

"I finally have one place for everything. My second brain feels real now."

"Voice capture during walks changed how I work. Ideas land in YostNotes before I forget them."

"Search alone is worth the price. I find old notes in seconds."

PRICING

Free to try. A subscription adds recording minutes, advanced AI features, and encrypted CloudSync. Monthly or yearly billing.
