Say it once — walking, driving, mid-conversation. It lands in your Obsidian vault as plain Markdown, where your agents can read it, connect it, and build on it. That is how a stray thought turns into something you ship.

A brilliant idea pops up. Typing on your phone is too slow. By the time you get home, it's gone.
Listening to a podcast sparks an insight. Your hands aren't free to write it down.
You did write it down. It is sitting in some app with a few hundred others, and nothing ever pulls it back up.
Capture solves the first one. Only a pipeline solves the second.
A pipeline is only as strong as its weakest link. Here is what holds at each of the three.
The tools you would compare us to run on a Mac, or run inside Obsidian — either way you have to be back at your desk with the app open. The idea does not wait for that. SpeakPen records where you actually are.
Not a row in our database. A plain Markdown note in your own vault, through the SpeakPen Sync plugin in Obsidian's community store. Stop paying us and every note is still sitting there.
Claude Code, Codex, whatever you point at your vault — none of them need an integration with us. They need your spoken thought to exist as text they can read. That is the part we do.
Nothing to wire up. These work the moment the note lands.
Chat across everything you've captured and get answers, with the source notes cited.
SpeakPen pulls the to-dos out of your note so nothing slips.
Turn a rambly note into a polished email, blog post, tweet, or to-do list — in one tap.
Notes arrive as plain Markdown files in your own vault. Stop paying and they are still yours — nothing stays trapped in our cloud.
