What Spoke is
Spoke is a web app that turns audio memos into searchable transcripts, summaries, and key points. It accepts MP3, M4A, WAV, and WEBM files up to 50MB, and says transcription with timestamps and speaker labels takes under a minute using OpenAI Whisper. Automatic speaker detection identifies who said what in multi-person conversations. Users can search across memos, organize them in folders, and filter by date, status, or folder. Transcripts can be exported as TXT or DOCX or copied to the clipboard. The free plan costs nothing and includes 60 transcription minutes monthly, up to 10 memos, summaries, key points, full-text search, and TXT export. Pro costs $12 a month with unlimited transcription and memos, speaker detection, DOCX export, and priority processing. Business costs $29 a month and adds advanced exports, usage analytics, priority email support, and early feature access; team workspaces are coming soon.
