Translate, Summary, Subtitle
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Clipsule Pro: 10× faster transcription, studio-quality voices, ad-free. Privacy-first by default. Cancel anytime.
Clipsule turns any audio or video into a clear, structured summary in seconds.
Drop a file from your device, share a recording from any app, or paste a link. Transcription runs locally on your phone, then a small AI model writes a structured summary with key points, timestamps, and a one-line takeaway. Read it, listen to it with text-to-speech, watch the original with side-by-side translation, quiz yourself, or chat with the recording.
WHAT YOU GET
• Structured summary — overview + key points + timestamps + per-part flashcards
• Full transcript — timestamped, scrollable, searchable
• 26-language translation — original and translation shown side-by-side on every line
• Quiz mode — 5 auto-generated multiple-choice questions, scored, retryable
• Chat tab — ask anything about your recording, answers grounded in the transcript
• Mentions extraction — every book, tool, person, website, paper, and product the speaker referenced, neatly grouped and tappable
• Markdown export — copy as Markdown or share a .md file, ready for Notion, Obsidian, Bear, or Apple Notes
• Picture-in-Picture + background audio — keep listening when you switch apps
• Share Extension — share to Clipsule from any app, including Safari and your favorite video apps
HOW TRANSCRIPTION + PRIVACY WORK
Clipsule splits the work between your phone and the cloud:
1. Audio extraction and transcription run 100% on your device using WhisperKit. Your audio file never leaves your phone.
2. Only the transcribed TEXT is sent to a small AI model in the cloud to generate the summary, translation, and quiz.
You can pick a transcription quality tier in Settings:
• Standard (ships with the app, 40 MB) — fast, works best for English
• Plus (download, 145 MB) — better for most languages
• Pro (download, 485 MB) — best for Vietnamese, Chinese, Hindi, Arabic, Bengali, and other non-Latin languages
No account. No analytics. No tracking. All your summaries live in your local database, exportable any time.
