About Waver

Built because note apps only did notes.

The story of how one recurring frustration with a stack of single-purpose tools led to an app meant to replace all of them.

The founder

Waver AI was founded by Abhishek Sivaraman, who builds it working with a small independent team, after running into the same gap repeatedly: every note-taking and transcription app did exactly one thing — notes, maybe transcription, maybe a summary. Nothing more.

Why Waver exists

Working on something creative or productive rarely stops at notes. It means sketching an idea on a canvas, planning a study schedule, recording and reviewing a meeting. Each of those used to mean a different app, a different account, a different subscription — fragmented, expensive, and slow.

“I wanted one app where I could talk and get everything done — notes, drawings, study plans, meeting summaries. Nothing like that existed, so I built it.”
— Abhishek Sivaraman, founder

What Waver actually does

Not just a notes app — everything below runs from the same voice input and the same account:

  • Voice notes

    Record and transcribe in 125+ languages. AI rewrites into 60+ styles — blog, email, script, essay, code, lyrics.

  • Meeting recorder

    Record any meeting and get transcripts, summaries, action items, and follow-up emails.

  • Draw studio

    A canvas with handwriting support, shapes, text, and layers, for saving handwritten notes.

  • Study planner

    Personalized study schedules with spaced repetition.

  • Daily routine planner

    Time-blocked daily routines based on your goals and schedule.

  • AI live talk

    Real-time voice conversations with AI.

The philosophy

Free should actually be useful

Every feature in Waver is free to use, on a credit system. New users get 40 AI credits in their first month, then 20 a month after that. Nothing is locked behind a paywall — upgrading buys more credits, not access.

One app, not ten subscriptions

Instead of a notes app, a dictation tool, and a meeting recorder each billing separately, Waver bundles them for one price — or free, if the credits cover what you use.

Privacy is non-negotiable

Your voice notes and drawings are yours. Waver does not train on them and does not sell them. Delete means delete.

Built independently, used worldwide

Waver is built by a small independent team. The app supports 125+ languages and is used by students, creators, professionals, and teams around the world — on iPhone, iPad, Mac.
