1.0.0
Launch
July 2026
Engram 1.0 is the first full release: a private notebook that listens, transcribes, and shapes your voice into beautifully structured notes without your words ever leaving the device. It launches on Windows, macOS (Apple silicon), and Android, with the iPhone app coming soon.
- On-device AI. Transcription and note structuring run locally on your phone and your computer. On a plane, in a basement, anywhere; no account and no connection needed. Desktops add GPU acceleration and a higher-accuracy transcription model where the hardware supports it.
- Capture anything spoken. Record a passing thought or a whole lecture, with Bluetooth and external microphones supported, or import audio and video you already have. Engram works from a video's audio track, extracted on your device; the video itself is never stored or uploaded. Optionally keep the source recording with each note and play it back later, with full background playback controls.
- Outline or prose. Switch any note between a scannable outline and flowing prose instantly. Edit freely; the original transcript is always kept.
- Organized your way. Notebooks, nestable folders, pinning, full-text search, find and replace, version history, and trash with recovery.
- Markdown in and out. Export any note or whole folders as plain Markdown, and import them back the same way. Your notes are never locked in.
- Optional Sync plan. End-to-end-encrypted sync and encrypted audio backup across your devices. Zero-knowledge by construction: we cannot read your notes.
- Optional Pro plan. Hosted cloud transcription for faster, more accurate processing, with 25 hours of audio per month. Audio is processed and then discarded, never stored. Includes Sync.
