Recording with the screen off

Put the phone down.

holo keeps recording with the screen off, so you can look at the people you're with instead of a notes app. Pause or stop it from the notification.

Later, it's all there.

Dry off, open holo, and the whole conversation is waiting.

There is no holo server.

What you said by the lake stays on your phone. It only leaves when you ask for a transcript or a summary, and then it goes straight to the AI provider you chose.

Where your audio goes

Nowhere, until you ask for a transcript or a summary. Then it goes from your phone to the provider whose key you added, and only to that one.

Your keys are stored encrypted in your phone's secure storage, and each key is only ever sent to the provider it belongs to.

No account to sign up for
No analytics or crash reporting
No ads
Auto-transcribe stays off until you turn it on

Use the AI you already pay for.

Paste in a key from any of these providers and pay them directly for what you use. holo adds nothing on top.

Back up to one file: Everything goes into a single .zip you keep. API keys are never included.
Seven themes: Light, Pastel Sky, Pastel Candy, Iris, Dark, Midnight and Opal.
A proper player: Skip 10 seconds either way, play at 0.5× to 2×, and scrub along the waveform.
Import audio: Bring in recordings you already have: m4a, mp3, wav, aac, ogg or flac.

Hit record.
Then go.

holo will have the notes when you get back.
