THE DIFFERENCE

No awkward bot joining your call.

Most meeting tools send a bot into the room — everyone sees “Notetaker has joined,” and your audio takes a round-trip through someone else’s cloud. MeetingRecorder records locally from your Mac. Nothing joins, nothing uploads.

FEATURES

Everything you need to keep a record — and nothing you don’t.

No bots in your calls

Records straight from your Mac’s audio. Nothing joins the meeting, so no “Notetaker has joined” and nobody in the participant list.

Everything stays local

Recordings, transcripts and summaries live in a folder on your Mac. No account, no sign-in, no upload by default.

Works with every app

Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, Slack, FaceTime, a webinar, a video — if it plays sound on your Mac, MeetingRecorder captures it.

Transcripts & AI summaries

One click turns a recording into a searchable transcript with speaker labels, plus a short summary with action items.

Lives in your menu bar

A tiny native app — no dock clutter, no Electron. Start with one click, and a quiet toast offers to record when a call begins.

Free to use

The full record → transcribe → summarize flow is free today. A Pro tier for heavy transcription use is on the way.

HOW IT WORKS

From a live call to notes in three steps.

01

Click record

Hit record from the menu bar, or just accept the corner toast that pops up when a call starts. No setup per meeting.

02

It captures both sides

Your microphone and the meeting’s system audio are recorded together — or as separate tracks if you prefer.

03

Get transcript & summary

One click produces a transcript and a summary with action items. Copy, share, or leave it all on your Mac.

PRIVACY BY DEFAULT

Your meetings never
leave your Mac.

There’s no cloud step to trust. Files are written to a folder you control, and you decide if and when anything is transcribed.

Stored in a folder you choose
Open it in Finder anytime. Move, back up or delete recordings like any other file.
No account, no sign-in
Install and record. There’s nothing to register and no profile to create.
Transcription is opt-in
Audio only leaves your Mac if you choose to transcribe — and you can turn that off entirely.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Does it work with Zoom, Teams and Google Meet?
Yes. MeetingRecorder records your microphone and your Mac’s system audio, so it captures anything that plays sound — Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Slack huddles, FaceTime, webinars, even a video in your browser.
Do other participants know they’re being recorded?
No bot joins the meeting, so nothing shows up in the participant list. That also means recording is your responsibility — always get consent when the law or your organization requires it.
Where are my recordings stored?
In a folder on your Mac that you choose. Recordings, transcripts and summaries stay local — there’s no account and no upload by default. You can open the folder in Finder anytime.
Does it need an account or an internet connection?
No account. Recording works entirely offline. The only step that uses the internet is AI transcription — and that’s opt-in, so you’re in control.
What are the system requirements?
macOS 15 (Sequoia) or later, on an Apple Silicon Mac. The app is about 4 MB and lives in your menu bar.
Is it really free?
Yes. Unlimited local recording plus 300 AI transcriptions and summaries a month are free today. A paid Pro tier for people who transcribe a lot is coming later — the core stays free.

Start recording in under a minute.

Free, native, and private by default. No bot, no account, no cloud.
