يا هندسة، بص الـmeeting بتاع بكرة اتأجّل للساعة تلاتة، وأنا محتاج الـpresentation قبلها. ابعتلي الـdeck النهارده، وحط الـbudget في آخر slide. وماتنساش تبعت الـinvoice للعميل.
Summary
Tomorrow's meeting moved to three o'clock. The presentation is needed before then, with the budget on the last slide.
Action items
- Send the deck today
- Put the budget on the last slide
- Send the invoice to the client
Three ways to get audio in
However the recording reaches you, it ends up in the same place
Record in the app
Record right inside La5asly: a lecture, an interview, an in-person meeting, a field note or a memo to yourself
Share from WhatsApp
Use the share sheet on any voice message, from WhatsApp or another app, and send it straight to La5asly
Upload a file
Upload a recording from your phone or your computer
All three draw from the same minutes balance
For every voice you can't listen to right now
Recordings of people talking, turned into text you can skim, search and copy
Voice notes
Long messages from friends, family or colleagues that you'd rather read on the bus
Meetings and lectures
Record in the room, then get the transcript and the points that mattered
Interviews
Quote accurately without replaying the tape three times
Client calls you recorded
Recorded on your phone? Upload it and pull out what was agreed.
Personal memos
Think out loud, then keep the ideas as notes
Built for how Egyptians actually speak
Most tools expect English or formal Arabic. La5asly is made for Egyptian Arabic, including the English you mix in mid-sentence.
Same voice note, two transcripts

Illustrative example. The first transcript shows a typical failure pattern, not the output of any specific product.
Egyptian Arabic, not textbook Arabic
Words are written the way they're said, not rewritten into something nobody spoke
English stays English
Meeting, deck, invoice: terms you say in English come out as English, not as phonetic Arabic
A summary you can act on
Every transcript comes with a short summary and a list of action items

Questions, answered
Straight answers about the product and the pricing
The product
What happens to my recordings and data?
Your voice messages are sent to an external service provider to be transcribed and summarised, and they're stored on our servers so they stay in sync across your devices. You can delete all of your data and your account at any time.
What audio formats and file lengths are supported?
You can upload common formats from phones and recorders, including WhatsApp voice notes (M4A, MP3, WAV, OGG/Opus, AAC, FLAC, WebM), up to 1 hour and 500 MB per file.
Which languages and dialects does it support?
Egyptian Arabic, including English mixed into the same recording. That's what La5asly is built for today. We don't claim support for formal-Arabic-only audio, English-only audio or other Arabic dialects.
What about Gulf, Levantine or Maghrebi Arabic?
Not yet. They're future work, and we don't have a date.
How does the free trial work?
You get 30 minutes free, one time, with no card required. It works the same as paid minutes, across recordings, shared voice messages and uploads.
Does it work offline?
No. Uploading and transcribing need an internet connection.
Pricing and billing
How does pricing work?
You buy minutes up front, in EGP, and spend them on transcription plus summary. There's no subscription. Pay as you go costs EGP 1.50 per minute used, and the packs bring the per-minute price down.
Do my minutes expire?
Packs are valid for 12 months from the day you buy them. There's no monthly expiry, so nothing is lost at the end of the month.
Am I charged a full minute for a short voice message?
No. Usage is measured in seconds and rounded up, so a short voice message costs only for its length.
Are summaries extra?
No. The summary and action items are included in the per-minute price.
What counts toward my balance?
Everything you transcribe: recordings made in the app, voice messages you share to La5asly and files you upload. They all draw from one balance.
What happens when I run out of minutes?
You can buy another pack, or turn on the optional auto top-up, which tops up at the Small pack rate (EGP 1.39 per minute) when your balance runs low. Auto top-up is off unless you opt in.
What do I get for free?
30 minutes, one time, with no card required.
Which currency do you charge in?
Egyptian pounds (EGP) only.
