About

Aiko is an AI-powered audio transcription app for macOS, iOS, and visionOS. The app converts speech to text from meetings, lectures, recordings, and other audio files using OpenAI’s Whisper model running locally on the user’s device. Aiko is designed for high-quality on-device transcription, making it useful for sensitive recordings that should remain private. The app supports Shortcuts, allowing users to build workflows for recording, transcribing, copying, saving, or processing transcripts. It is available as a Universal Purchase across supported Apple platforms. Built for Apple users who need private speech-to-text, Aiko helps turn audio into text without sending recordings to cloud transcription services.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Local file upload is solid. Transcription accuracy holds up on accented and multilingual audio, speaker identification works out of the box, and long files come back fast. The built-in editor makes correcting the few errors quick, and export covers TXT, DOCX and SRT. Pricing on the Pro plan is competitive against the bigger transcription services. When it works, it does the job well.

Cons

  • Online link import has been broken on my account since July 28, 2026. One public YouTube URL, pasted by hand into their web form, is created, sits for 10–20 minutes at zero duration and zero file size, then fails with status 400 and errCode 10011, "online link lambda time out". A public Vimeo URL fails with errCode 10010. Local uploads still work, so it is their link download step. No status page and no incident notification, so you find out a core feature is down by watching your own tasks fail. Failed tasks cannot be re-run in bulk once a fix lands.
