About Dictanote

Dictanote is a modern notes app that integrates built‑in speech-to-text to allow users to voice type notes in more than fifty languages. It supports offline reading and editing of notes, with cloud sync across devices and cross‑platform availability. The product targets writers, students, professionals and anyone who prefers speaking to typing, offering a way to capture thoughts as voice while keeping a written record.

Dictanote operates by allowing users to press a dictated input, use voice commands for punctuation and formatting, and save notes that sync to the cloud. Dictation can be controlled from a toolbar or keyboard shortcut, and users can continue typing as needed. It uses the browser’s speech-to-text service to convert audio into text, with notes stored on Dictanote servers for syncing across devices.

Its capabilities include multi-language dictation, voice commands for punctuation and formatting, notes organized into notebooks, sharing and collaborating on notes, and offline reading/editing with later sync. It supports exporting notes to PDF, HTML and text, and provides a help center for user guidance.

Dictanote offers a free tier and a Pro tier with features like unlimited notes, hands‑free dictation, password‑protected notes, editing by voice, custom voice commands and sharing options. Install options include web access and apps on desktop, Android and iOS, with cross‑device compatibility and offline reading with subsequent syncing. The service emphasizes privacy, cloud storage of notes, and encryption of data on its servers.
