An idea, with a next step

Speak the brief.
Let your Mac get started.

Saynote connects a recorded idea to the AI tool you already use on your computer. You stay in control of the project, permissions and result.

One connection, then a simple routine

  1. Open Saynote Desktop on your Mac and get a pairing code.
  2. In the iPhone or web app, open Builds → Connect a computer and enter the code.
  3. Choose a dedicated project folder and Codex or Claude Code on the Mac. Sign in through that tool using your own account.
  4. Record in Build mode, or send a written brief from Builds.

The full idea reaches your tool

Saynote transcribes your recording and organizes it into notes. The build brief includes the summary and the full transcript so the coding tool can refer to the original request. It runs on your paired Mac in your chosen project.

The tool’s subscription, usage limits and capabilities apply. Saynote does not supply a coding subscription or move your tool’s login credentials to its server.

Answer questions from your phone

See progress and result messages in the build view. When a tool requests a supported permission, you can allow that action once or decline it. Clarifying questions are shown with reply fields. An unanswered permission is not automatically approved.

Pick up where the build left off

A follow-up resumes the same tool conversation in the same project folder. Ask for a change, review the next result or cancel active work. “Ready to review” means the AI turn finished; it does not guarantee a bug-free product or an independently verified deployment.

What happens when the Mac is offline?

The request stays queued until the paired computer is connected and accepting work. Keep the Mac awake and the companion running. Generated files remain on the Mac. Saynote does not silently upload the finished project or publish it.

The Mac companion is currently an Apple silicon beta for macOS 14 or later. Its first downloadable build is development-signed; public notarized distribution is still in progress. See the current status on Downloads.

What can you make?

Start with a clear, bounded request: a launch page, a small tool, an improvement to an existing project. Include what it should do and what a good result looks like. Review files and checks before using the result. Real voice-to-build checks with both supported tools have passed during development.

Good ideas start with you.

Say them out loud. Keep the details. Take the next step.
