Nodl
Problem
People who think faster than they type — clinicians, coaches, consultants, researchers, anyone who takes a lot of notes — lose ideas when capture is slow. Classic dictation hands back a raw transcript that still needs a second pass: stripping filler words, adding structure, matching the output to its purpose. Mobile apps add friction, and every tool switch breaks the line from spoken idea to finished document.
Solution
- → Browser-based recording — no app install, capture from any device
- → Live transcript while speaking, with speaker identification for conversations and interviews
- → AI pipeline turns unstructured speech into finished documents — clinical notes, session notes, journal entries, meeting notes, to-do lists
- → Custom document templates with instructions and reference files, so output matches your format and style
- → Transcription in 14 languages, translation into 70 languages
- → Export as PDF, Word, or Markdown; original audio stays downloadable; private workspace with full data control
- → Encrypted storage on servers in Germany; processing only through EU-based providers
Result
Nodl closes the gap between speaking and a usable document. A few minutes of unstructured speech in, a structured, review-ready draft out — not a transcript you still have to rework. The product runs in production with paying customers.
Nodl also doubles as a showcase for agentic AI engineering at ex-nihilo: the codebase is 100% AI-generated, maintained by AI agents under human direction, and held to production standards through automated migration checks, security scanning, linting, and a full test suite including headless browser tests.
