OpenAI’s speech-to-text for fast, accurate transcription in any environment.
03 / Beta
Clara
Your brain moves fast. Clara keeps up.
A native iOS app that turns voice into organized knowledge, instantly. Speak a thought, and Clara routes it to the right place in your personal system. No typing. No filing. No friction.
The problem
Great ideas don’t wait for a filing system.
ADHD brains generate constant ideas, observations, and tasks at the worst possible moments. The cost of capturing them is too high. The cost of losing them is higher. Most capture tools demand too much: open the app, find the right note, type it out, file it properly. By then, the thought is gone.
-
01
Too much friction
Every extra tap is a chance to lose the thought or abandon the habit entirely.
-
02
No one wants to sort
Even when you capture something, deciding where it goes is its own executive function tax.
-
03
Tools that don’t stick
The perfect note-taking system only works if you actually use it. Most don’t survive contact with a real day.
How it works
Speak. Clara handles the rest.
-
01
Hold and speak
Tap once and say anything: a task, an idea, a reminder, an observation. Clara listens with Whisper-grade transcription. No typing required.
-
02
AI routes it intelligently
Claude reads the content and decides where it belongs: is this a task to do, a calendar event, or a piece of knowledge to keep? It routes it accordingly with no input from you.
-
03
It lands in the right place
Clara writes clean markdown directly to iCloud Drive, organized, Obsidian-compatible, and yours. No proprietary database. No lock-in. Just files.
The system
Three buckets. Everything fits.
Clara uses the ACE framework, a minimal, universal structure that every thought can land in.
-
A
Atlas
Knowledge & ideas. Concepts, references, things you want to remember. The permanent layer. “What is this about?”
-
C
Calendar
Time-anchored moments. Daily notes, events, anything tied to a date. The temporal layer. “When did this happen?”
-
E
Efforts
Projects & tasks. Active work, checklists, in-progress projects. The action layer. “What am I working on?”
Under the hood
Best-in-class AI
Anthropic’s Claude handles routing, deciding where each thought belongs.
Native iOS in Swift/SwiftUI. No web wrappers.
Plain markdown files on iCloud Drive. Open in Obsidian or any text editor.
