Every call you record becomes a searchable transcript that knows who said what — and never leaves your Mac. One-time purchase. No subscription, no account, no cloud.
Lesskeys records your calls, meetings and screen, turns them into transcripts that show who said what, and keeps every conversation searchable on your Mac. All of it offline.
RECORD ANY CALL, MEETING OR SCREEN
Capture what happens on your Mac — system audio, your microphone, and the screen or a single window, recorded together as one video file. A video call, a web meeting, a lecture, an interview, a browser tab, a podcast: if it plays on your Mac, Lesskeys records it. Nothing is streamed anywhere. The recording is written straight to your own disk.
TRANSCRIPTS THAT SHOW WHO SAID WHAT
Every recording becomes an accurate transcript with automatic speaker labels, produced entirely on your Mac. Lesskeys learns voices and recognizes the same people across different recordings, so a speaker becomes a name once and stays that name next time. Click any line in the transcript to jump the video to that exact moment.
YOUR CONVERSATIONS, KEPT AND SEARCHABLE
This is the part that compounds. Your recordings become an archive you can actually use later, instead of a folder of audio files nobody ever opens again. Search inside what was really said across every recording you own — filter by speaker, by recording, or by date range, match an exact phrase, or exclude a word. Click a result and the transcript opens at that line with the video in sync. Once you have named the speakers, a plain-text transcript appears beside the recording in Finder, and you can export to TXT, SRT or WebVTT.
DICTATION ANYWHERE ON YOUR MAC
Press one hotkey in any app and just talk. Lesskeys turns your speech into text and copies it to your clipboard, ready to paste into emails, documents, messages, notes or code — in 99 languages, with automatic language detection.
NEVER LOSE WHAT YOU COPIED
A built-in clipboard manager keeps a searchable history of your text, links and images. Pin the ones you reuse and paste any of them with a single hotkey (Cmd+Shift+V).
100% PRIVATE, 100% OFFLINE
Your audio, video, transcripts and clipboard never leave your Mac. No cloud servers, no accounts, no subscriptions. Everything is processed on your device with Metal GPU acceleration. Switch off your Wi-Fi and all of it still works — that is the whole point.
