Transcribe calls + AI summary

Only for Mac

Free · In‑App Purchases

Mac

Narada records your online meetings with your permission, transcribes them on-device, and turns every call into clean notes — decisions, action items, and what mattered to you, ready when the meeting ends. No bot joins the call. Audio stays on your Mac. Narada lives in your menu bar and, when enabled, can start recording selected calendar meetings automatically. You stay in control and can stop recording at any time. WHY NARADA • Decisions, owners, and takeaways — extracted automatically, with citations back to the exact transcript moment. • On-device transcription. Your audio never goes to a third-party server. • No bot in the meeting. Narada records locally from your Mac, without adding another participant to the call. Always make sure you have permission to record. • Works with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, FaceTime, and anything else that plays audio. • Calendar-aware. When enabled, auto-records the meetings you select and skips focus blocks. WHAT YOU GET AFTER EVERY CALL • Searchable transcript with speaker labels and timestamps. • A short summary you can scan in 20 seconds. • Action items split by direction — what you owe, what others owe you, and ambiguous commitments to triage. • A pre-meeting brief for recurring calls — what you discussed last time, what's still open, what to focus on now. ASK ACROSS ALL YOUR MEETINGS The chat tab is a private assistant over your meeting archive. Ask questions like "What did we decide about the Q3 roadmap?" or "What did Acme push back on?" — every answer cites the exact moment from the right meeting. No hallucinations. PRIVACY BY DEFAULT • Audio and transcripts are stored locally, in a folder you control. • Speech-to-text runs entirely on your Mac with an on-device ASR model — no cloud transcription. • Optional cloud AI features are off by default and require your explicit approval before any transcript content is sent. • You can use our managed proxy, your own OpenAI key, a local OpenAI-compatible endpoint (Ollama, LM Studio…), or keep AI features off entirely. • While recording, a visible recording window stays on screen with a reminder to notify other participants. A recording indicator also stays in the macOS menu bar for the entire session. WORKS HOW YOU WORK • Lives in the menu bar — never in the way. • When enabled, can automatically start recording a minute before selected calendar meetings and stop when each meeting ends. • Handles overlapping meetings, recurring series, late-joiners. • Recordings, transcripts (.txt) and summaries (.md) live as plain files in a folder you control — easy to grep, sync, or hand off to other tools. • Built-in Claude Desktop integration via MCP — query your meetings from any Claude conversation. REQUIREMENTS • macOS 15.6 or later. • A microphone (built-in is fine). TRY IT FREE Three days on the house, then $6.99/month or $69.99/year. Cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.

Ratings & Reviews

  • This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

• Fixed a memory leak that caused the app to consume excessive RAM during long meetings — recording an hour-long call no longer slows down your Mac. • Fixed a crash when connecting a Google Calendar account from Settings or Onboarding.
