Store description excerpt
Every word, kept. Lectern records your meetings, lectures, interviews and voice memos, transcribes them on your device, and turns them into clean notes you can actually use — with a full-text archive of everything you have ever recorded. ON-DEVICE WHISPER TRANSCRIPTION Lectern runs Whisper directly on your device's Neural Engine for accurate transcription of natural, real-world speech — no server, no upload, no per-minute fees. Prefer zero setup? Apple's on-device speech recognition works instantly with no download at all. Switch engines any time. RECORD WITH CONFIDENCE A live transcript scrolls as you speak, with a level meter and word count so you always know capture is working. AirPods disconnecting mid-meeting, phone calls, Siri interruptions — Lectern re-taps the new microphone and keeps writing the same file. Even a force-quit or crash is survivable: the recording is detected on next launch and recovered, transcribed and archived. FROM RAW SPEECH TO REAL NOTES The notes pipeline runs entirely offline and is fully deterministic: filler words and stutters are cleaned up, punctuation is repaired, paragraphs are restored, and every session gets a TL;DR, summary bullets and keyword tags. Action items are extracted with owners and due dates, in English and German. AN ARCHIVE YOU CAN SEARCH Every session lands in a full-text searchable archive — transcripts, titles, notes and action items. Search for a phrase, jump straight to the matching segment, and play the audio from that exact moment. IMPORT AND EXPORT EVERYTHING Transcribe existing audio and video files. Export to Markdown, PDF, plain text, SRT, VTT or HTML. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Audio and transcripts never leave your device. The only network use is the one-time, optional Whisper model download. No account, no analytics, no tracking. FREE TO TRY, PRO WHEN YOU NEED IT The free tier includes three recordings of up to ten minutes each with the complete pipeline. Eligible new subscribers can try Lectern Pro free for 7 days. Pro unlocks unlimited recordings and archive with monthly or yearly billing across iPhone, iPad and Mac. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in App Store subscription settings.
