Questions
What is Transcripted?
A free Mac app that records meetings and dictation and saves them as text files on your Mac.
Does it upload my audio?
No. Transcription runs on your Mac, and your audio and files stay there.
Does a bot join my call?
No. It listens to your mic and your Mac's sound, so it hears both sides of Zoom, Meet, Teams, or FaceTime without joining.
What kind of files does it make?
Plain Markdown files. Any app can open them, and AI tools can read them.
Will it run on my Mac?
You need a Mac with Apple silicon (M1 or newer) running macOS 26 or later.
