— The manifesto

In a world that wants to archive your life to sell it, we built Stilus to give you your voice back.

No cloud. No AI stuffed in a distant server. No ads.

Just you, your iPhone, and the memories you want to keep — exactly as you lived them.

Stilus is the voice-first journal for iPhone: you speak and Stilus transcribes in real time with Apple’s speech recognition, in Italian, English or Spanish. Everything stays on your iPhone: no cloud, no account, no tracking.

— How it works

Three gestures. Nothing more.

  1. 01

    Tap the microphone

    Speak naturally. In Italian, English or Spanish. Stilus listens.

  2. 02

    Live transcription

    Words appear as you speak. Add mood, tags, people and places with a tap.

  3. 03

    Replay. Export.

    Replay the original recording. Export entries, days or ranges to Markdown with photos and audio included.

— What’s inside

Built to last a hundred years.

Native voice recognition

Real-time transcription with Apple’s speech recognition. Italian, English, Spanish. Not a single word on Google or OpenAI servers.

Privacy by design

FaceID lock. Per-entry ‘Private’ toggle. Zero analytics, zero tracking, zero account.

Photos as-is

Photos attach to entries in their original format, without recompression. No quality loss.

Export everything

Markdown, photos and audio in a single zip. No lock-in: your data follows you.

Tags & categories

Add people, places, mood or a free tag while writing. Search your entire journal by tag, person or place.

Quote of the day

Over a thousand philosophy and aesthetics classics, one for every dawn. In three languages.

Editorial themes

Curated themes designed for reading. Change the look, keep the ritual.

— For professionals
