Notta's SpeakOn Brings Dedicated Microphone Hardware to iPhone Dictation

Notta has released SpeakOn, a $129 MagSafe-attached device that provides independent audio processing for voice-to-text transcription on iPhones. The 25-gram hardware captures audio within two feet, processes transcription locally, and delivers 10 hours of battery life. A $12/month unlimited plan supplements the base tier's 5,000-word weekly allowance. The device targets professional workflows—medical documentation, legal note-taking, field reporting—where dedicated hardware may isolate audio better than iPhone's native dictation systems, though success depends on measurably superior accuracy in users' acoustic environments.
