Offscript vs SpeakPipe

Offscript is an Android and iOS app that turns voice recordings into searchable notes. Whisper transcribes recordings locally after an initial model download of about 100 MB, and semantic search also runs on the device. The maker says recording, transcription, search, and note workflows work offline after that download. Recordings stay on the phone rather than being sent to the maker’s servers or third parties. Audio files use AES-256-GCM encryption, while the notes database uses SQLCipher. Biometric access is supported; Android requires a secure device lock and offers secure-screen protections. Core note-taking requires no account, and the product page lists no accounts or tracking. The App Store listing says transcription covers 99 languages and the interface has 19 languages. Premium adds summaries, action items, PDF, Markdown, CSV, and plain-text exports, calendar integration, and encrypted backups. The free plan includes core voice notes, on-device transcription, and search. Premium costs $2.99 a month, $19.99 a year, or 59.99 USD once for lifetime access. Notes can be organized with tags.

SpeakPipe lets podcast listeners send voice messages through a personal voicemail page or website widgets, which podcasters can include in episodes. A page link can be shared without installing anything on a website. SpeakPipe also offers inline widgets for webpages or blog posts and a dialog widget opened from a side button; the latter can be installed on sites that allow custom HTML or JavaScript. Widget senders do not need SpeakPipe accounts and may leave a name and email address. If an email address is provided, the account holder can send a voice reply.

The Free plan includes unlimited messages, recordings up to 90 seconds, 100MB storage, one widget, one voicemail page, and email notifications. Gold costs $12.00 per month when billed annually, or $15/month when billed monthly; Premium costs $36.00 per month when billed annually, or $45/month when billed monthly. Both paid plans include a 30-day free trial. SpeakPipe says messages are private within the account unless shared publicly. It supports web, iOS, and Android; the FAQ specifies current Chrome and Firefox on Android and Safari on iOS. Widgets cannot add fields beyond name and email, cannot be embedded in email newsletters, and support English only.
