All features

Everything in Roundnote

Every feature is yours for the first 5 meetings, and for good with Pro. All of it runs on your Mac, unless you choose an AI service or an assistant.

Recording

Calls, noticed by themselves: Teams, Zoom, Webex, FaceTime, Slack, Discord and calls in a browser: your microphone and the call's sound, with the echo taken out. Record automatically, Ask me or Do nothing.
Record Now: A meeting in a room, from the menu bar or with ⌘N, or ⌃⌥R from any app, which also stops it. Microphone Only, or Microphone and Computer Sound.
Recordings you already have: Drop any audio or video file on Roundnote, use File › Import Recording, or put it in your Inbox folder.
A reminder for the room: Your calendar reminds you to record a meeting in a room.
Always in view: The recording window stays on screen until the recording stops, and shrinks to one line.
Nothing lost: A recording survives a quit or a crash; the next launch makes the meeting.

Live text: The words a second or two after they're said, in the 25 built-in languages and in meetings that mix them.
Speakers as they talk: Speaker 1, 2 and so on in their own colours, people who agreed to be remembered by name. Click a label to name a voice.
Live translation: Every line in the meeting's main language or one you pick under Translate Into, on your Mac. Show Original brings back the words as spoken.
Mark a moment: Click Mark, or press ⌃⌥M from any app, even with the call in front.
My notes: Type a note and it keeps its time. Marks and notes steer the summary.
Easy on the battery: The live text pauses in Low Power Mode or below 20%, and says so. The recording goes on.

100 languages: 25 European languages on the speech model built into the app, and Whisper for the other 75.
Meetings that mix them: Each turn is transcribed in the language it was spoken in.
Your words: Names and terms in Settings › Words, with corrections such as “Akme” to “Acme”.
Fix a line: Click the pencil on a line; Roundnote offers to always write it that way.
Translate afterwards: Translate Transcript and Translate Summary, kept next to the original.
In your language: Roundnote itself speaks English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish and Italian.

Who spoke when: The voices in a meeting told apart, also several people around one Mac or beside you on a call.
Recognised, with consent: People who agreed to be remembered are recognised by their voice in later meetings.
Name for This Meeting Only: The default: the name, and nothing of the voice kept.
Names from introductions: “Hi, I'm Priya” names the voice, with the same question about remembering it.
The invited people first: When a voice needs a name, the people on the invitation are suggested first.
Mix-ups fixed: Same Person As… merges two speakers, Split… splits one, Not X undoes a wrong match.
Don't Name Speakers: For a meeting that doesn't need names.
Forget at any time: Forget a voice, delete a person, or Forget All Voices.

Categories: Customer meeting, one-on-one, project update or your own, each with its colour and its own way of summarising.
Summaries: On your Mac by Apple Intelligence or Gemma 4, or by the AI service you choose, in the meeting's language.
Decisions: Under every summary.
Actions: Every action item from every meeting in one list: who, what and by when, also for several people. Check them off, show just your own, or send them to Reminders.
Tags: The topics of every meeting, as tags.
Merge Meetings…: A meeting with a break becomes one meeting again.

Search what was said: Every word in every meeting, and jump to the moment it was said.
Search by meaning: Also finds what was said in other words or in another language, on your Mac.
Spotlight and Siri: Meetings show up in Spotlight, and Siri can start a recording.

Roundnote's MCP server: 16 tools for the Claude desktop app, Claude Code and the ChatGPT desktop app, on your Mac. It works while Roundnote is closed.
8 tools to read: find_meetings, search, get_meeting, list_people, get_person, list_tags, action_items and open_meeting.
8 tools to save back: save_refined_summary, save_action_items, complete_action_item, save_translated_summary, save_decisions, save_title, save_tags and save_meeting_text.
Add to Claude… and Add to ChatGPT…: Set up in Settings › Assistants.
Ask across your meetings: In your own words; the assistant looks up only what the question needs.
Saved back: A refined or translated summary, action items, decisions, a title, tags or a section of its own, each marked as the assistant's.
Requests: Your Own Question, Summary and Action Items, Summary Only, Action Items Only, Follow-up Email, and your own in the Requests window.
More assistants: Ask Mistral Vibe, Ask Gemini or an assistant of your own, in a new chat or from the clipboard, and Copy for AI.

On your Mac: Transcribing, recognising voices and summaries on your Mac. Transcripts and voices work offline.
No account, no server: No Roundnote account, no Roundnote server, no analytics, no ads.
What left this Mac: Every meeting lists where it went and when, never what.
Asked first: Nothing goes to an AI service until you allow its server.
Hide from Assistants: For a meeting or a whole category.
Require Touch ID: Lock Roundnote. Recording goes on, and meeting titles stay out of the menu bar and notifications.
A consent line: Copy Consent Line, already on the clipboard when a call is recorded, and in your own words in Settings › Privacy.
Deleting: Delete Recording, Keep Transcript; recordings after a number of days; meetings after a set time.

Record anywhere: Free apps that record a meeting and send it to your Mac, which does the transcribing.
One press: The Action button, Siri (“Record with Roundnote”) or Shortcuts, with a tap on your wrist when it starts and stops.
Marks: Marks made on the iPhone, iPad or Watch become your Mac's marks.
Nothing lost: A recording survives a phone call, a crash or an empty battery, and is kept until it's on your Mac.
Your own network: Sent encrypted over your own Wi-Fi to the Mac you paired. Sending through iCloud is coming.
Play and share: Listen to a recording on the device, or share it yourself.

On your Mac: Apple Intelligence (switched on in macOS) or Gemma 4 (a one-time download of about 5 GB) for summaries, the default.
A model server on your Mac: Ollama or LM Studio.
An AI service: OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, Groq or any OpenAI-compatible address, asked once per server.
Voices stay home: Recognising voices always stays on your Mac.
