I'm Amira, a freelance science journalist juggling interviews and drafts. I need private, fast transcription for quotes, so Onit's on-device processing is perfect. The hero feature is smart transcript polishing that cleanly trims hesitations and produces clean quotes for edits. The pebble: it occasionally misreads niche terms and lab names, so I fix a handful after export. Still, it runs in any app and speeds up my workflow.

Grace Walker
Instant start, privacy-first notes that save my lab meetings
What I liked
What could be better
I'm Jordan, a grad student racing through weekly lab meetings and action items in Notion. I needed a fast way to capture decisions without cloud audio. The hold-to-record shortcut is the hero here—start recording in a flash and everything stays on my Mac. The on-device vocab learning helps with common acronyms over time. Pebble: transcripts sometimes drop context and I still tweak notes in Notion after the meeting.
