We launched the first version of Audionotes (www.audionotes.app) in May 2023, riding the Whisper/AI voice notes hype wave. Built it on Bubble, jumped on the hype train, but something wasn't clicking despite all our improvements.

The hard truth? We didn't really know what problem we were solving or who we were solving it for. Most importantly - we weren't even using our own product.

A few months ago - we went through some serious soul-searching. We talked to our users (like, really talked), figured out what actually mattered, understood who needed this, and decided to build something we'd genuinely love to use ourselves.

In 4 months of building, we've rebuilt Audionotes from the ground up. It's now a voice-first but complete note-taking app that just works. Perfect for brain dumps, meeting captures, lecture notes, or daily journaling.

What we've built: - The whole package: voice notes, file uploads, text notes, scanned images, and YouTube video notes - Transcription, summaries, and custom outputs that actually make sense - Smart meeting notes with speaker detection - Chat with your notes (single or all) - like having a conversation with your brain - WhatsApp bot for instant transcription and summaries Plays nice with others: Notion, Zapier, and webhook support - Web, iOS, Android, and Chrome Extension

We've poured our hearts into this rebuild, and it feels different this time because we're building for ourselves as much as for our users.

Would love for you to try it out and tell us what you think!

    Why should I switch to this from Wave AI? Can I pay a one time fee for the app and use my own API keys?
