Founded by Turkish Y Combinator founders

You speak, Elchi writes.

Turkish and English in the same sentence: dictation that understands both. In meetings, you talk and Elchi takes the notes.

Dictation· in every appMeeting notes· Zoom, Meet, Teams
Version 1.0.8 · Apple silicon
Free. You start with 7 days of Duyu Pro.
In every app

Anywhere you can type.
Nothing to set up.

Slack, Gmail, Docs, Notion, WhatsApp, Cursor… Elchi follows your cursor, not an app. Any field that takes text takes Elchi.

Why Elchi?

Work in Türkiye no longer runs in one language: Turkish speech is full of English terms.

We built Elchi for people who speak Turkish and work in English, on a speech model we made from scratch: Duyu.

What's in it

Talk. Elchi handles the rest.
More than dictation.

Even with English mixed in

Gets the English terms you drop into Turkish right.

Punctuation included

Adds commas, question marks and capitals without you saying them.

Press, speak, let go.

One shortcut, everywhere. Hold it, or tap it once.

On your computer. Free.

With Duyu-small your voice stays on your device, in line with KVKK, and it works offline. Duyu Pro, used for the first 7 days, transcribes on our server.

Meetings

You do the talking.
Elchi takes the notes.

Zoom, Meet, Teams… Elchi listens to the call on your computer, transcribes it live and writes your notes when it ends.

No one joins the call

It hears your mic and your computer's audio separately, so it knows who said what. No bot joins the meeting.

Writes around your notes

Pro

Jot down what matters; Elchi fills in the rest from the meeting.

Notices the call by itself

When a call turns on the microphone, it offers to take notes. It never starts on its own.

FAQ

Good questions.
Short answers.

Where does my voice go?

  • With Duyu-small, your audio never leaves your computer.
  • While Duyu Pro is in use (the first 7 days and with Elchi Pro), recordings are transcribed on our server (voice.patientdesk.ai).
  • With smart formatting on, the transcribed text (not the audio) is tidied on our own server by an open model we host ourselves; it never reaches a third party and is not stored. You can turn it off in Settings.
  • We recognise your computer by a one-way hash of its machine id. We never store your IP address, only a keyed hash of it, to limit abuse.

What is sent for meeting notes?

  • Meeting notes (macOS, Duyu Pro): to write the notes, the meeting's transcript (not its audio) is sent to OpenAI through OpenRouter, only to providers that keep nothing. By default no audio is kept, and the transcript is deleted once the notes are written.
  • If you choose to share a meeting, its notes and the transcript or recording you pick are stored on our servers, and anyone with the link can see them. They are deleted when you stop sharing.

Is Elchi free? What happens after 7 days?

  • Duyu Pro for the first 7 days; after that free and unlimited on your device.
  • Elchi Pro: ₺200/month · Duyu Pro, always · First month free · No card needed
  • Reinstalling does not restart the trial.
