Quote

Every action you take is a vote for the type of person you wish to become.

So every page I read tonight is a vote for becoming a reader.

Ideas get lost between the pages

  • A thought strikes while you read, and a week later you can't find it.
  • Typing breaks your focus, so you put it off until it's gone.
  • Note apps don't understand Arabic, let alone our dialects.

How it works

  1. 1. Pick a book

    Paper or ebook; add it in seconds.

  2. 2. Start reading

    Hamesh keeps track of the page and chapter.

  3. 3. Speak

    One tap, and your note lands, written out, on the right page.

Everything you need to remember what you read

English and Arabic transcription

English, and Modern Standard, Egyptian and Gulf Arabic, with English words mid-sentence kept as you said them.

Chapter and book summaries

Short points from your own notes, each pointing back to its note.

Semantic search

Ask in your own words, typed or spoken. Semantic search finds notes by what they mean, not by the exact words.

Questions

Does it understand my dialect?

Yes. We choose the transcription model by testing real recordings in English and in Modern Standard, Egyptian and Gulf Arabic, including English words mid-sentence. You can always edit the text.

What happens to my recordings?

They're saved on your phone first, then uploaded encrypted to our servers in Frankfurt to be transcribed. Your recordings are never used to train any model, and you can delete them at any time.

Paper books or ebooks?

Both. Hamesh is built for paper books first, and works with any book you read on another device. EPUB import comes later.

When does it launch?

Soon, on the App Store and Google Play. People on the waitlist hear first and get the founding-member discount.

Is there an Android version?

Yes. Hamesh is coming to iPhone and Android, on the App Store and Google Play.
