Turn your thoughts into the right words

Up to two minutes per note on the free tier, and up to 15 minutes per note on Prime. If you have longer recordings from elsewhere, Prime users can upload audio files of up to 100MB each instead of re-recording.

Yes, that is what AudioPen is for. Record a voice note in the app and it comes back as clean, readable text, with the original transcript kept alongside it.

If the voice note was recorded somewhere else, on your phone's voice memo app for example, Prime users can upload the file and AudioPen will convert it the same way.

Any app with a text field. Gmail, Slack, Notion, Google Docs, your code editor, your CRM, the message box on your phone. There is nothing to plug in or connect, because AudioPen types wherever your cursor already is.

Voice typing works on Mac, Windows, iPhone, iPad and Android.

Yes. Prime users can upload up to 100 audio files every 4 weeks, with a maximum file size of 100MB each, on the web, Mac, Windows, iPhone, and iPad.

Most common formats work, including MP3, M4A, AAC, WAV, MP4, OGG, and WebM. AudioPen runs the file through the same transcribe-and-rewrite step as a live recording, so you get finished text back in the style you choose, not just a raw transcript.

Voice typing gives you an offline option on Mac, Windows and the iOS keyboard. Turn it on and transcription runs on your device, so the audio never leaves it. You can pick cloud transcription instead, and the choice is yours on each device.

Two things always need a connection. The AI rewrite step runs in the cloud, though nothing from it is stored. Recording a note inside the AudioPen app also uploads the audio so it can be processed.

As many as you need. AudioPen comes with a style library covering everyday writing, such as Clear & Simple, Casual Email, Formal Email, Business Memo, Book Notes, Bullet Points, Kid Friendly, and Humorous, with more grouped under social media, storytelling, and specialized use.

You can also create your own. Describe the style you want in a sentence, or paste in a sample of writing, yours or an author's, and AudioPen will match it.

Yes. AudioPen works with almost any accent. It uses modern transcription models built to handle a wide range of speech.

No special hardware. The microphone already in your laptop, your phone or your earbuds is enough, and AudioPen uses modern transcription models that handle everyday background noise.

A loud cafe or a car with the windows down will cost you some accuracy, as it would with any voice tool. Somewhere reasonably quiet gives you the best results.

Yes. AudioPen connects to Zapier and supports webhooks, so a note can go to any app Zapier reaches the moment you save it.

People use this to keep a Google Sheet of every note, to drop notes into a Markdown or notes app, or to route notes with a certain tag to a particular place, such as a project folder or a team channel. Webhooks give developers the same note data as JSON for their own tools.

The AudioPen MCP gives AI assistants read-only access to your AudioPen notes. It works with any platform that supports MCP; ChatGPT and Claude are the most common.

Once it is set up, you can ask ChatGPT or Claude about anything you have saved in AudioPen, with no exporting or copying. Access is read-only: they can read your notes but cannot add, change, or delete anything. The MCP is a Prime feature.

Yes, AudioPen has native mobile apps for both Android and iOS available for download.

Yes, a single Prime account can be accessed from all your devices, provided you log in to the same account.

You can use Prime features on the native app, the web app, the Mac app, the Windows app, or the Chrome Extension.

Yes, most companies provide budgets for productivity tools like AudioPen.

During checkout, enter your company name and address to receive an invoice for reimbursement.

Yes. Teams, classes, and groups of colleagues can buy up to 100 Prime licenses in one order at a 20% discount through the bulk purchase page. Each license is a one-year pass that starts when the person activates it.

No, your data is not used to train any AI models.

Yes. AudioPen Prime members can connect their account to ChatGPT or Claude so the assistant can search and read their notes while they chat. The connection is read-only, so the assistant can never change or delete a note. See how to connect.

Only what you ask it to look up. The assistant can search your notes, list your tags and folders, and read a single note in full, including its original transcript. It cannot create, edit, or delete anything, and it can only see the account you signed in with. You can disconnect at any time from the assistant's settings.

Most voice to text tools hand you a transcript and stop there. AudioPen transcribes what you say, then rewrites it into clear, structured text in the style and language you pick. The rewrite is optional. Keep the plain transcript if that is all you need.

AudioPen is built for individual thought, not for meetings. It will not join a Zoom call or label who said what.

Six comparisons cover the details. AudioPen vs Otter.ai is for anyone weighing a meeting assistant. AudioPen vs Wispr Flow is for system-wide dictation. AudioPen vs Spokenly is for people who want local, offline dictation on a desktop. AudioPen vs SuperWhisper is for power users who like configuring their tools. AudioPen vs Dragon is for anyone moving on from Dragon NaturallySpeaking. Wispr Flow vs SuperWhisper vs AudioPen puts all three side by side if you are still deciding.
