Pro AI · Now in v1.1
AI that remembers
every word.
Bonfiyah records the conversations you actually have — meetings, doctor's appointments, client intakes — transcribes them on your iPhone, and uses on-device AI to track every commitment, catch contradictions across recordings, and brief you before your next meeting.
Pro AI · Promise Tracker
The promise made Tuesday won't slip by Friday.
Pro AI scans every recording for commitments — yours, theirs, conditional, dated, vague. Each one becomes a tracked card with the speaker, the deadline, and the exact quote. When the deadline arrives and the deliverable hasn't, it surfaces the original quote, not a paraphrase.
Otter, Notta, and the meeting-bot world produce summaries. Bonfiyah produces accountability.

Read on iPad.
Review on Mac.
Bonfiyah is iPhone-led. Every recording, transcript, and Pro AI output then syncs in real time to your iPad and your Mac (via Catalyst) through your private iCloud. Stop a recording on your iPhone, watch the transcript finish on your Mac.
Multi-device add-on
Pro and Pro AI cover one primary device. Adding more is $1.99/mo each (or $19.99/yr — two months free). Compare: Otter +$20/mo per seat. Plaud +$169 per device.
Pro · Native iPhone integration
Built like an Apple app. Not like a web wrapper.
Native Calendar + Contacts integration. Lock-screen Live Activity. Dynamic Island. Smart-stack widgets. Apple Watch. Siri. The things every iPhone owner expects — and that web-first competitors physically cannot ship.
Calendar + Contacts
Read-only access to your iOS Calendar and Contacts. Bonfiyah knows who you're meeting, surfaces the right Speaker Insights profile, and generates the Pre-Brief automatically. Works with iCloud, Google, Outlook, Exchange — anything iOS calendar already supports.
Lock-screen Live Activity
When you're recording, your lock screen shows a real-time card: elapsed time, peak-volume meter, current speaker, one-tap pause. Dynamic Island handles the same job when the app isn't frontmost.
Smart-stack widgets
Three widgets ship in v1.1: Today's meetings (with Pre-Brief), Recent recordings, and Open promises (Pro AI). All sized for small/medium/large, all rotation-aware in Smart Stack.
Apple Watch + Siri
Tap the complication on any watch face to start recording in under a second. "Hey Siri, what did Sarah promise me last week?" — real App Intents, not voice-driven UI hacks.
Advanced Search
One box, four indexes: stories, transcripts, speakers, and tags. Semantic + keyword, depending on how you typed. Saved searches re-run automatically as new recordings come in.
All read-only, all on-device
Calendar reads, Contacts reads, widget data, Pre-Brief inference — all happen on your iPhone. No data leaves the device for any of these features.
Pro AI
Seven AI features the rest of the category hasn't shipped.
Each one runs on-device on Apple Silicon. Your audio stays on your iPhone. Your transcripts never train any model. $19.99/month or $179.99/year, with a 7-day free trial.
Promise Tracker
Auto-extracts every commitment from every meeting. Tracks who promised what, by when, and whether they kept it.
Read the deep-dive →Truth Layer
Catches when something said today contradicts something said weeks ago. Surfaces it before the next meeting.
Read the deep-dive →Pre-Brief
Reads your calendar; 30 min before each meeting hands you a one-page brief from prior recordings with that person.
Read the deep-dive →People Memory · Speaker Insights
A profile of every person you've recorded with — what they bring up, how they speak, what's open.
Read the deep-dive →Story Mode
A narrative recap that reads like someone was paying attention — characters, decisions, the moments that mattered.
Read the deep-dive →Speaker Themes
Per-person speaking patterns over time — recurring topics, hedging signature, trend lines, energy markers.
Read the deep-dive →Action Items
Every task, owner, deadline, source quote — with tap-to-play audio. Exports to Reminders, Things, Todoist.

The cross-recording layer. Without the AI premium.
Pro is what you upgrade to when one recording stops being enough. Speaker memory across recordings, Advanced Search of your full library, native Calendar + Contacts integration, auto-summaries, projects + tags, real-time multi-device sync, and the lock-screen Live Activity that turns your iPhone into a recording cockpit. The infrastructure that makes a year of conversations feel like an organized archive.
Most users hit Pro before they hit Pro AI. Most stay there. That's by design — Pro alone solves the recording-volume problem without the AI inference cost.
Persistent speaker profiles
"Sarah" in last week's recording is the same person in this week's. Speaker library grows automatically.
Advanced Search
Search across stories, transcripts, speakers, and tags in one box. Semantic + keyword. "The meeting where Maya pushed back on the timeline" finds the moment.
Native Calendar + Contacts integration
Bonfiyah reads your iPhone Calendar and Contacts (read-only). Knows who's in your next meeting; surfaces the right speaker profile and Pre-Brief automatically. No web app does this.
Live Activity + smart-stack widgets
Real-time recording timer on the lock screen and in Dynamic Island. Today's meetings + briefs widget on the home screen. Apple Watch glance.
Auto-summaries
Bullet recap on every recording. The "what was this about" answer ready before re-listening.
Projects, tags, smart playlists
Organize 100s of recordings the way a power user organizes Notes.
Unlimited recording
No 120-min monthly cap. Background recording, all-day if you want.
Privacy · in every tier
Built consent-first. Every tier. Including Free.
Twelve U.S. states require all parties to a recorded conversation to consent. Most recording apps treat this as your problem — they hand you a microphone and a privacy policy and trust you to figure out the legal layer.
Bonfiyah ships built-in two-party consent management in every tier. State-by-state law guidance. Verbal consent capture. A defensible, exportable consent log. We don't make this a paid feature because making it paid would be tasteless — recording someone without their consent is a category of harm we don't want our free users to do.
Plus: on-device transcription by default. Audio doesn't leave your iPhone unless you turn on iCloud sync. We don't train AI on your transcripts — written into the privacy policy as a binding commitment.
How consent management works →Three tiers. Real differences. No padding.
Free is the full app, capped at 120 minutes a month. Pro is for active recorders. Pro AI is for stakes.
