You're welcome.
Fast by default. On-device transcription. Your brain can finally relax.
You've been here before.
Your brain runs faster than your fingers. Cleft keeps up. Talk or type, your call.
From people already thinking out loud
You literally have built one of the BEST apps for ADHD people.
I was just rambling with my phone on the desk and it got the recording perfect and organized it into topics and steps. Very impressive.
If I'm dictating a to-do list to myself, I use Cleft as it is really good at organizing my ramblings into checklists and bullet point lists.
I was so impressed with the way it synthesizes the meaning of your voice note. The way Cleft just brings it all together in a shorter, nicer formatted, easy to read note is a game changer for me.
This is the best tech add I've made in literal years. I use it multiple times a day and can't recommend it enough.
Might be the first actual "AI marketed" application that seems to work and isn't some sort of scam.

Talk it out. Cleft cleans it up. Your note is ready to use.

How Cleft's transcription got fast, private, and accurate
Cleft has transcribed your voice on-device since the first builds. The cloud only ever handled the summary step. A look at why we made that choice early, and the work to make on-device transcription fast and accurate.
Bringing Cleft to the car
CarPlay is the most constrained surface we have shipped: you cannot look at the screen, you only get templated controls, and you might lose signal at speed. Here is how those limits shaped the feature.
Keep the thought while it's still there.
