AI content platform that transcribes podcasts, videos, and recorded meetings with speaker diarization and turns them into show notes, summaries, and other assets.
AudioDiary, made by Soliloquy Apps Limited, is a voice journaling application that lets users capture thoughts by speaking instead of typing. Users record an audio entry and the app automatically transcribes it and applies AI to produce summaries, reflections, suggested goals, mood tracking, and pattern visualization over time. It also offers dream analysis, custom tagging, themes, and the ability to attach photos to entries. Captured content can be exported as audio, transcripts, images, or PDF, and entries can be edited after recording. Its "Session Designer" lets users personalize or disable AI features, and extracted goals can sync to Google Calendar. The app is available across iOS, iPad, Mac (including Apple Vision), and the web, with synchronization between platforms. Recordings are encrypted in transit and at rest, with data stored via established cloud providers, and the company states it does not sell or monetize journal entries. It is aimed at individuals seeking a reflective, spoken personal journaling and self-tracking habit rather than business meetings.

Castmagic is an AI-powered content platform that transforms recorded audio and video into transcripts and a range of derived content. After a file is uploaded or imported, Castmagic transcribes it with speaker diarization and then automatically generates summaries, show notes, timestamps, titles, social media posts, newsletters, and other assets from the same recording. The platform integrates with sources including YouTube, Apple Podcasts, Google Drive, and Zoom, so recorded meetings and interviews can flow directly into a workspace for processing alongside podcast episodes. Castmagic includes semantic search across a media library, brand-voice customization, reusable templates, and commenting and approval workflows aimed at teams and agencies that manage content for multiple brands. While its marketing centers on podcasters and creators, the transcription, speaker labeling, and summary features make it applicable to meeting and interview recordings as well. It is intended for content teams, marketing agencies, podcasters, coaches, and sales organizations that want to convert recorded conversations into transcripts and repurposed written content rather than only a raw transcript. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
