A phone on a wooden stand on a desk next to a laptop. On screen: a meeting summary in Vault Notes with key points, decisions and action items.

Works in airplane mode too

Meeting minutes, made on your own phone.

Vault Notes records your meeting and turns it into a transcript, speakers, a summary and action items. It all happens on the device: your audio and notes never go to us or to any server.

  • No account
  • No ads
  • Nothing to the cloud

The screens are real recordings of the app with a made-up meeting; the photos were made with AI.

How it works

Real screen recordings of the app, with a made-up meeting about launching a website.

  1. Record, the text follows

    Put your phone on the table and tap record. The text appears on screen while people talk, and recording carries on with the screen off.

  2. Finished on the phone

    Say how many people took part. The phone then saves the meeting encrypted, separates the speakers and runs a second, more accurate pass over the full audio. (Recorded in Dutch.)

  3. Summary and action items

    Summary, key points, decisions, next steps and open questions. Action items with owner and deadline.

  4. The privacy receipt

    Per meeting it shows what the app sent during the recording, with a badge when you recorded in airplane mode.

A phone flat on a meeting table between a coffee cup and a laptop; across the table a hand takes notes. On screen Vault Notes is recording: 03:47, with live text of the conversation.

Put it on the table and just talk

Recording and transcription happen on your phone, without wifi or a mobile network.

Live text
On screen while you record.
A second pass
After the meeting, a more accurate pass over the full audio.
Eight languages
English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian and Polish: pick one or let the app detect it.
Screen off is fine
Recording carries on when you leave the app or turn off the screen.

Who said what

After the meeting the speakers are separated automatically, on the device.

How many people?
Say how many took part for a better split.
Names afterwards
Rename speakers straight from the transcript.
Remember voices
Optional and off by default. Next time the app suggests a name; you always confirm it yourself.
How it went
Talk time per speaker, a timeline of who spoke when, chapters with timestamps and a mind map that jumps to that moment.

An AI model on your phone puts the meeting in order. No server involved.

Summary
With key points, decisions, next steps and open questions.
Action items
With owner and deadline, which you can add to your calendar.
Ask questions
The model on your phone answers from that meeting only.
What stayed open
Since your last meeting with the same people.

You choose what you share

Only what you share leaves your phone: as text, through the app you choose.

  • The summary, only the action items, one part or the full transcript
  • Search all meetings: titles, transcripts, summaries and action items
  • Organize meetings with tags
  • Meeting screens are hidden from screenshots and the recent-apps view

Everything it does, and what it doesn’t

A hand holds a phone in a light office corridor. On screen Vault Notes asks what you want to share, with options such as summary, only action items and full transcript.
Privacy receipt of a meeting in Vault Notes: recorded in airplane mode, speech recognition, speakers and summary processed on this device, 0 B sent during the recording, stored in an encrypted database, with the models that ran.

Privacy you can check

Don’t take our word for it: turn on airplane mode and record. That meeting’s privacy receipt shows what the app sent during the recording.

Questions people ask

All questions · Email us

Can I use Vault Notes now?

The app works end to end in the Android test build: recording, transcription, speakers, summary, asking questions and sharing. The public beta is being prepared. Leave your email and we write to you once when you can take part.

Does my audio go to a server?

No. Audio is processed on your phone and never uploaded. Until the final transcript is done it is kept encrypted (AES-256-GCM) in the app's private storage; then it is deleted. What you keep is the text.

So what does use the internet?

Two things: the AI models are downloaded once from huggingface.co (and the Hugging Face download servers), and the app checks your subscription status through Google Play and RevenueCat, with an anonymous ID. Links to our terms open in your browser. There is no analytics, crash-reporting or advertising code in the app.

Does it really work without internet?

Yes, after the one-time download. Turn on airplane mode and record: transcription, speakers, summary and questions all work. The recording is then labelled "Recorded in airplane mode".

How much storage do I need?

A one-time download of about 2.2 GB for the compact models or 4.4 GB for the standard models. The standard models are recommended for phones with 8 GB of memory or more. Use wifi.

How good is the summary?

Good enough for minutes, but it is a small model that fits on your phone, not a large cloud model. Check decisions and names before you send them on. The transcript is always right there.
