Be in the call.
It keeps the record.

Never lose a promise. Never take notes on a call again. What you owe. What you’re owed. For when someone remembers it differently. The record stays with you.

Give the person in front of you your whole attention. Recordist writes up the call, and the record stays with you: no bot in the call, and no audio ever sent to us.

Recordist works wherever you take your calls. By default it asks before it records.

Recordist’s card asks: Record this meeting? Scope call with Hannah, with Hannah Foster. Record, Not this one, Snooze. Under it: It asks first.

It asks first.

Promises are made everywhere

Recordist understands them too: it transcribes in dozens of languages, with nothing uploaded.

Most promises float away. The ones in your client calls don’t have to.

Recordist keeps the record.

The promise

Your calls stay yours. We have nowhere to keep them.

  1. 01

    You decide, every call.

    By default, a small card asks when a call starts: Record this meeting? Nothing is recorded until you say yes.

  2. 02

    Just the people you invited.

    Recordist records your own microphone and the call’s sound. Nothing is added to the participant list, and nobody has to let a stranger in.

  3. 03

    The record stays with you.

    Your recordings, transcripts and notes stay with you, never with us. Recordist has no server that could hold them.

If you choose a cloud AI provider for notes, the transcript goes straight from Recordist to that provider under your own account. That is your choice, off by default, and listed in the Privacy Ledger. On a Mac your organisation manages, it can choose to archive each meeting to its own storage. We never receive it.

The Memory Test · 40 seconds

Can you remember what your client promised three weeks ago?

Try it in 40 seconds. One client call, heard once, then three questions from memory. If a minute is hard, three weeks is harder. It runs in your browser, and your answers are never sent anywhere.

Before you decide

Five questions people ask us.
Five plain answers.

Does it record without asking?

Not by default. When a call starts, a small card asks: Record this meeting? Nothing is recorded until you say yes.

How the card works
Where does my client’s audio go?

Nowhere. It is written to a folder of your own and transcribed in the app. We have no server that could hold it.

What the app sends out
Do I need an account?

No. Download it and your next call can be on the record. Pro is a licence key the app checks offline.

How buying Pro works
What happens when I stop paying?

Pro runs to the end of the period you paid for. Then the app goes on recording, transcribing and searching for free, and everything you made stays with you.

How to cancel
Can I leave with my data?

Yes. Export any meeting as Markdown, text, SRT, VTT or JSON, and delete everything whenever you choose.

The exports

A word from the team

No ads. No sales team chasing you.

Recordist is made by a small, self-funded team in Canada. We’d rather spend every dollar on the app than on ads. You found us because someone cared enough to share it, and that’s how we hope to grow.

So we built it the way we’d want it built for us: nothing joins your calls, by default it asks first, the record stays with you, and you can leave any time with everything you made. If it makes your day easier, that’s the whole point.

As you said on the call:

“I’ll get you the revised scope by Thursday.”

00:16While the audio is kept, hear it said.

Never write it from memory again.

Free, with no account. 7 days of Pro to start, with no card. By default, nothing is recorded until you say yes.

Recordist

Recordist for Mac is downloading.

Thank you for trying Recordist. Three small steps and it is ready before your next call. Open it now, so it is set up in time.

  1. 1Open the download and drag Recordist to Applications, then open it from there.
  2. 2Allow the microphone and system audio when your Mac asks, so both sides of the call are heard. Calendar is optional: it names your meetings and who is in them.
  3. 3Close the window when you like. Recordist waits in the menu bar and, when your next call starts, asks: Record this meeting? Nothing is recorded until you say yes.

The first time it opens, Recordist downloads its speech model: 142 MB in English, 466 MB for other languages. That usually takes a minute or two, and you can record once it finishes. The notes engine, 1 to 3 GB, follows in the background.

While it downloads, see a finished call in your browser

Every install includes 7 days of Pro, so your first calls are written up in full.

No call today? Import a recording you already have: in Recordist, Meetings, then Import audio. One of 10 minutes or more starts your 7 days of Pro, and the notes follow the transcript.

While it downloads, get your Free key. 10 AI notes a month instead of 3, with no end date. Optional: your download has already started.

Two emails: a link to confirm, then a copy of your key. Nothing else unless you ask. We never sell or share your address, and Resend, our email service, sends them for us. Privacy
