PRODUCT WALKTHROUGH / iOS

Vola — stay in the conversation.

Vola is my independent AI note-taking app for iPhone. It brings live transcription, summaries, and questions about notes into a recording experience.

01

From a recording to a useful note

Vola lets users see live text while recording, edit notes during the recording, and translate text. AI summaries help turn the captured material into a shorter reference.

The Ask AI interface lets users ask questions about their notes. Transcript, summary, and questions are related parts of the same note-taking workflow, rather than separate tasks to assemble manually.

02

A product lens

The key interface challenge in a note-taking tool is helping people find useful information without losing their place in a conversation. Vola’s product experience brings capture and follow-up into one place.

For a team planning a similar product, the initial discussion should cover recording behavior, permissions, how transcripts are reviewed, and how generated content is presented to the user. These requirements determine the scope of an implementation.
