00:00 · THE PROBLEM

A meeting notetaker without a subscription

Nearly every meeting notetaker on the market is a subscription: a monthly charge that keeps running for as long as you keep using notes from your meetings — which, for most people, is indefinitely. Small monthly numbers add up fast once you look at them over a few years instead of a few months.

TinyScribe is a one-time purchase: $49.99, paid once, unlocking the app for good. It's free for your first 30 meetings, so you can try it with real recordings before paying anything.

10:00 · HOW IT WORKS

The subscription math, over three years

	Monthly price	Cost over 3 years
TinyScribe	—	$49.99 once
Granola	$14/mo	$504
Jamie	€24/mo	€864

There's a straightforward reason TinyScribe can charge once instead of every month: it doesn't have ongoing infrastructure costs to cover. Transcription runs on-device with Apple's SpeechAnalyzer — no server, no per-meeting compute bill for us. Summaries run through Apple's own Private Cloud Compute, using Apple's infrastructure rather than a server we pay to keep running. With nothing recurring on our end, there's nothing recurring to pass on to you.

$49.99, paid once — unlocks the full app permanently, no renewal.
Free for 30 meetings, so you can evaluate it with your own recordings first.
No account, no card on file after purchase, no surprise renewal charge.
