Why SemantiNote exists

Stop digging. Start finding.

You shouldn't have to hunt through hundreds of files, pages, and old messages to find the one thing you wrote down. SemantiNote exists to give people their time back.

Instead of scrolling through folder after folder trying to remember where you put something, you just describe it — and semantic search finds it by meaning. The built-in AI summarizes and explains your notes, writes new ones and edits them for you, and records your meetings and lectures — Zoom, Teams, or in person — so nothing important ever slips away. It even keeps your passwords safe, so you're not digging for them or trying to memorize dozens of them. All in one private place, on your own computer.

Less time hunting. More time thinking. That's the whole point — this is built to help people get their work, and their studying, done.

Find it by meaning

Search the way you think. Describe what you're after and semantic search surfaces it — no exact keywords, no remembering which file it lives in.

Let the AI do the busywork

Agentic AI summarizes and explains your notes, and can create or rewrite them for you. Ask about everything you've ever written and get a real answer.

Never lose a meeting or lecture

Record Zoom, Teams, or in-person conversations and lectures straight into a note — transcribed and searchable, so you can always look back.

Everything in one place

Notes, recordings, and even your passwords live together in one private, encrypted app. Stop juggling tabs, files, and sticky notes.

For work

Spend less time searching through files and more time doing the job. Walk out of every meeting with a searchable record, and stay more efficient without extra effort.

For students

Record lectures, keep every class organized, and find any concept in seconds — instead of flipping through hundreds of pages of notes or re-reading everything before an exam.

Every reason to try it, none not to.

How it works

Set up once, then never think about it

No account, no cloud, no subscription. SemantiNote downloads a small AI model to your computer and runs everything right there.

1

Install

Download for Mac or Windows and open it. No account, no sign-up.

2

Pick a model

Choose an open-source AI model. SemantiNote downloads it once and runs it on your device.

3

Write & talk

Take notes, paste anything, or just speak — dictation and meeting capture turn talk into text.

4

Ask anything

Search by meaning, chat with your notes, summarize, organize — all offline and private.

Everything in one place

A notebook that actually understands you

Semantic search

Find notes by what they mean, not just the exact words. Stop digging through folders for that thing you wrote weeks ago.

Chat with your notes

Ask questions and get answers grounded in your own notebook — with the notes it used cited right there.

AI summaries

Turn a wall of text or an hour-long meeting into a clean summary, action items, or a tidy outline — without the busywork.

Voice to text

Don't feel like typing? Just talk. SemantiNote transcribes your voice straight into the note, offline.

Meeting capture

Record Teams, Zoom, Slack & Discord calls right into a note — then ask the AI what was decided.

Encrypted secret safe

Keep API keys, passwords and private notes encrypted on your machine — searchable and one click to reveal.

Semantic search

Search by meaning. Stop going digging.

Keyword search only finds the exact words you remember. SemantiNote understands ideas — ask for "that pricing idea from the client call" and it surfaces the right note even if you never wrote the word "pricing."

Plain keyword

Matches only exact words. Miss the phrasing, miss the note.

SemantiNote

Matches meaning. Finds what you meant, not just what you typed.

Talk. It listens. You ask questions later.

Dictate a note hands-free, or record a whole meeting — SemantiNote captures both your mic and your computer's audio, so it hears everyone on the Teams, Zoom, Slack or Discord call. Afterwards, ask the AI to summarize, pull action items, or double-check a claim with a web search.

  • Live transcript as you speak
  • Captures both sides of Teams / Zoom / Slack / Discord calls
  • Ask the AI about the meeting the moment it ends

Private by design, not by promise

Most "AI notes" apps send everything you write to someone else's servers. SemantiNote doesn't. There's no cloud to opt out of — the AI, your notes, your recordings and your secrets all stay on your computer. That's not a setting. It's how the app is built.

Pay once. Own it.

No subscription. No AI bills. No limits.

Most AI apps run in the cloud, so they charge you every month and count every message. SemantiNote runs the AI on your own computer instead — so you can use it as much as you want, for free, with no monthly bill ever.

Unlimited — no monthly bill

Because the AI runs on your own hardware, not a company's servers, there's nothing to meter. Chat, summarize and transcribe all day long — it always costs you nothing.

A whole library of AI models

Browse and download from a huge range of free AI models. Pick the one that fits your computer, and switch anytime to get better answers — small and fast, or big and powerful.

Pay once, keep it for life

One payment and it's yours forever. No subscription, no renewals, no surprise charges.

🎉 On sale — from $25 to $9.99
One-time $25 $9.99
