## Capture everything, keep everything

### iCloud storage

We don't have a database for your notes; they stay in your own iCloud account.

### Open format

Each entry is a simple Markdown file that fits in Git, Obsidian, or Google Drive.

### On-device accuracy

About 95% word-for-word on iPhone 12 or newer (even in Airplane Mode).

### Works with Shortcuts

Launch with Siri, append to the last note, or file new ideas by voice alone.

### Custom dictionary

Teach Brain Dump your character names, product jargon, or inside jokes once and see perfect transcriptions afterwards.

### Built-in prompts

Quick templates for journaling, decision logs, brainstorming, and more.

### Optional AI polish

Summaries, rewrites, or email drafts (only if you switch it on).

### Emotion tags

Naming a feeling can cut late-night rumination (Pennebaker 2018). Tag any entry with one tap.

### Fair pricing

A generous free tier. Upgrade once or subscribe when you need extra space; your choice.

## Used by engineers, writers, and night-time over-thinkers
