What it is

Dictanote sits between a notes app and a dictation tool — notebooks with rich text, tags, and offline access, but with one-click voice input on every note. Same team behind the Voice In extension.

Best for: Knowledge workers who keep all notes dictated in a single cross-platform notebook.
Watch out for: Browser dictation uses Web Speech API; cloud-stored notes; audio is not stored, only transcripts.
