Early access

Early access has ended.
Recordist is open to everyone.

From 26 September 2026 until version 1.0, released on 18 October 2026, people asked for Recordist on this page, and the download link came by email. Version 1.0 is free to download for Mac, Windows and Linux. It needs no account and no email, so this page no longer takes requests.

A download link we emailed before 1.0 works for seven days after it was sent. After that, the download page has the same app.

The early-access draw

Everyone who asked here, or entered by email, during the entry period has one entry, as the rules say. Entries closed with the release of version 1.0, released on 18 October 2026. Within 14 days of that day, by 1 November 2026, we draw 50 entries at random, each for a year of Pro worth about US$144, and email the people drawn at the address they entered with. Since 12 October 2026 it is not open to people who live in New York or Florida; an entry made before that date stays valid. We publish nothing about winners.

The official rulesPrivacy

Each request's record is kept until the draw is complete, then for up to 12 months in case of a dispute. To have yours deleted sooner, write to privacy@recordist.app.

Recordist

Recordist for Mac is downloading.

Thank you for trying Recordist. Three 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. More AI notes each month, 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
