About Cleft Notes

Cleft Notes converts spoken words into professionally formatted written documents using on-device transcription technology. Simply speak your thoughts, ideas, or meeting summaries, and the AI automatically transcribes and structures your content with headings and logical organization for immediate readability. This approach eliminates the friction between capturing ideas verbally and having them available as polished text. The transcribed notes are fully editable in Markdown format, giving you complete control to refine, reorganize, and enhance your content. You can attach files and images directly to your notes, creating comprehensive records that combine audio-derived text with supporting materials. The Markdown workflow makes it easy to maintain consistency across your documentation process. Cleft Notes integrates seamlessly into your existing productivity ecosystem. Share notes publicly via generated links, export Markdown to your preferred applications, or automate workflows through Zapier connections. For users relying on local-first systems, sync directly with Obsidian to keep your notes as .md files on your machine. Privacy and security are central to the design. On-device transcription means your voice data stays on your device initially, while encrypted cloud sync protects data in transit and at rest. The platform maintains full CCPA and GDPR compliance, respecting your data ownership and privacy requirements.
