Problem
Media professionals, editors, and journalists often deal with hours of audio and video content that require accurate transcription and translation.
Most existing tools were web-based, lacking offline functionality, native Apple integration, and seamless file synchronization.
This created friction in creative workflows — slowing down production teams who needed to transcribe, edit, and collaborate quickly within their macOS and iOS environments.
Manual transcription was slowing down modern storytelling.
Solution
To address this challenge, Simon Says introduced fully native iOS and macOS applications powered by its advanced AI transcription engine.
These apps allow users to upload, transcribe, and translate media files directly from Apple devices, with secure cloud synchronization ensuring work continuity across platforms.
By merging intuitive Apple-native design with AI-driven performance, Simon Says enabled creators to focus on storytelling rather than manual transcription, transforming the post-production experience.
AI transformed transcription into a seamless creative step.
