Audionotes: AI Notes & Minutes

Audionotes accepts live voice, text notes, audio and video files, images, and YouTube links, then transcribes them in 99+ languages with automatic language detection. You can also pin a language when a recording mixes accents or switches mid-sentence, so the transcript doesn't drift into the wrong alphabet. For anyone who records in more than one language, that manual override is the difference between usable and unusable output.

Every recording, media upload, and YouTube video gets speaker separation by default. The transcript labels each voice as Speaker 1, Speaker 2, and so on, and you can rename them in the editor. Meeting minutes stop being a wall of text and turn into a record you can attribute. The official site claims up to 95% transcription accuracy in clear, single-speaker audio under good conditions, so expect the number to drop with crosstalk and background noise.

Once a note exists, you can ask it questions rather than reread it. The chat answers from the transcript, which is quicker than searching 40 minutes of audio for one figure. Typical questions look like "what did we decide on the budget" or "list the deadlines mentioned". Answers are only as good as the transcript, so a noisy recording produces a vaguer reply.

Instead of a single fixed summary, Audionotes runs your note through a template or a prompt you write. Lecture notes AI output, flashcards, quizzes, SOAP-style medical notes, client meeting minutes, LinkedIn posts, email drafts, and task lists all come from the same recording. Templates are the fastest start, and custom prompts are where the flexibility shows. This is the feature that makes the app a writing assistant and not only a transcriber.

You can send a voice note or a file to the Audionotes WhatsApp bot and get the summary back in the chat. The bot handles transcription and summarising for quick captures when opening the app is too much friction. It's the least documented part of the product, and heavy users should check current limits before relying on it for daily work.

Notes sync across iOS, Android, Web, and Mac (beta), and you can push them to Notion, Zapier, or a webhook on the Pro plan. Exports cover Markdown, plain text, audio, and a shareable webpage. For teams, the webhook route is the one that matters: it sends the full transcript, the AI summary, and action items as JSON to your own backend. The gateway is documented as a Zapier trigger rather than a full public API, so check whether your workflow fits before planning around it.

Recordings and transcripts are private unless you publish them, encrypted in transit and at rest, and the company states it has opted out of using customer data for AI training. Audionotes says it's GDPR compliant. It is not HIPAA certified, which rules out clinical documentation for US practices. Medical note templates are available for personal use only.
