Recorder → Nomily AI → Your API Key → Your AI
BYOK voice-recording companion for V05E, Apple Watch, and iPhone imports — ASR transcription, speaker diarization, AI summaries, and local ASR endpoint support.
Nomily AI brings recordings into a native client, transcribes them with a provider you configure, and generates a summary with an AI provider you choose.
This repository is the project entry point. The runnable native clients live in
nomily-ios and
nomily-android.

What is Nomily AI?
Nomily AI is not a hosted transcription account or a shared recording cloud. It is a native companion workflow for recordings and user-configured AI services. The app keeps the choice of transcription and summary provider with the user.
The public repositories provide source for inspection and local builds. A source commit is not a promise of store availability, device/firmware compatibility, or a production service release.
What it does today
- Connects to the V05E BLE recorder workflow, downloads recordings, and manages a local recordings library.
- Imports recordings on iPhone, including recordings transferred from the Apple Watch companion.
- Transcribes live or recorded audio through Azure Speech or a user-operated local faster-whisper-compatible ASR endpoint; Azure transcription enables speaker diarization for up to 10 speakers.
- Generates summaries, titles, and translations with a configured LLM provider: OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, OpenRouter, Ollama, or a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint.
- Provides native iOS / Apple Watch and Android implementations rather than a cross-platform wrapper.
Privacy and provider boundaries
Nomily AI is not a hosted transcription account or a shared recording cloud. API keys are supplied by the user and must never be committed. Keep recordings, transcripts, device identifiers, logs, generated configuration files, and access credentials out of issues and pull requests.
| Service layer | Data sent in a configured workflow | Who provides it |
|---|---|---|
| Nomily AI client | Recording library, transfer state, and generated files on the client | You install and operate the client. |
| Azure Speech | Audio for transcription, when Azure is selected | Your Azure account and key. |
| Local ASR endpoint | Audio for transcription, when a local endpoint is selected | You operate the endpoint. |
| LLM provider | Transcript text needed for summary, title, or translation | Your selected provider, model, endpoint, and key. |
The public repositories do not include a shared Nomily AI cloud, a bundled provider account, or a complete self-hosted sync stack. Local ASR and Ollama are provider integrations, not a claim that every product layer is self-hosted.

Transcript and summary
Recording input support
| Input | Current source status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| V05E recorder | Implemented in both clients | Primary BLE recording input; compatibility still depends on the actual device and firmware under test. View on Amazon |
| TicNote NE-79 | Physical-device validation in progress on iOS | Recorder-protocol work is in progress. It is not publicly supported until recording, transfer, and transcription complete on physical hardware. |
| Apple Watch microphone | Implemented in nomily-ios |
The watchOS companion records on Watch and transfers recordings to the paired iPhone client. |
| Audio imported on iPhone | Implemented in nomily-ios |
iPhone is an import, management, transcription, and summary client. |
| Other recorder models | Not committed | A model is not supported merely because it can record audio. |
| Android Watch companion | Not published | Do not infer a Wear OS client from the Android app source. |
See the expandable device compatibility matrix before assuming a recorder model is supported.
Apple Watch companion
After Nomily AI is installed on the paired iPhone, install its Watch companion:
- Open the Watch app on iPhone and scroll to Available Apps.
- Find Nomily AI and tap Install.
- In Nomily AI on iPhone, open Settings → Apple Watch and confirm it shows Installed.
- Open Nomily AI on Apple Watch and record when V05E is not with you. The recording syncs to the iPhone Nomily AI app for transcription, organization, and summaries.
| Install from Watch App | Confirm in Nomily AI settings | Record on Apple Watch |

Planned or not published
| Item | Status |
|---|---|
| Other recorder models and protocols | Compatibility is not committed until tested with the relevant firmware. |
| Android Watch companion | Not published. |
| RAG, MCP, shared self-hosted sync | Not represented by the current public client source; not an announced capability. |
| Online no-key demo | A fixed-data preview is live at Geekis.com/demo. It does not upload audio, call ASR or LLM services, or store keys. |
Repository map
| Repository | Role | Relationship |
|---|---|---|
| nomily-app | Project entry, cross-project documentation, licence, and preview assets | Start here. It does not contain an installable client by itself. |
nomily-ios |
SwiftUI client for iPhone and Apple Watch | Its own native project, build instructions, and issue tracker. |
nomily-android |
Kotlin / Jetpack Compose client for Android | Its own native project, build instructions, and issue tracker. |
nomily-site |
Private static-site deployment source | Hosts setup and demo material; it is not a mobile-client source repository. |
Build and project layout
The clients share product concepts and protocol expectations, but are separate native implementations. Review the relevant repository before choosing a build path:
nomily-app/ project map, licence, public preview assets
nomily-ios/ iOS app, Watch companion, BLE / ASR / local library modules
nomily-android/ Android app and core protocol, crypto, audio, ASR, LLM modules
nomily-site/ private static deployment source for guides and the demo
| Goal | Start here |
|---|---|
| Build for iPhone or Apple Watch | nomily-ios — macOS, Xcode 15+, and a physical iPhone; Apple Watch optional. |
| Build for Android | nomily-android — JDK 21, Android Studio or Gradle, and a physical Android phone. |
| Report a defect | Open an issue in the affected native-client repository with redacted reproduction steps. |
