Transcrio is a local-first macOS recorder for calls, lectures, voice notes, and any audio playing on your Mac. It captures microphone + system audio without a meeting bot, platform integration, or organizer permissions, saves source audio and generated text files on your Mac, and turns recordings into transcripts and summaries. When processing is needed, Transcrio handles recordings temporarily and does not keep your audio, transcripts, or summaries.
Hi Product Hunt,
We built Transcrio while working on more AI-native workflows in our own day-to-day work and we invite you to try it for free.
The more we used AI tools, the more obvious one thing became: useful context is constantly getting lost. Calls, quick voice notes, strategy discussions, customer conversations, lectures, videos, and ad hoc explanations often contain exactly the details you want to reuse later.
But capturing that context was surprisingly awkward.
Most tools we tried were built around meeting bots. That works for some calendar meetings, but not for everything: phone calls, FaceTime, browser audio, lectures, videos, quick dictation, or any conversation where inviting a bot is impossible or just feels wrong.
There was another problem too: many tools give you a transcript or summary, but not the source files in a simple, reusable way. If the summary misses an important detail, you often cannot easily go back to the original audio, reprocess it, search the raw transcript, or use the material in your own AI workflow.
So we built Transcrio around a different starting point: your Mac is the source of truth.
Transcrio is a local-first macOS recorder that can:
- record microphone + system audio from the menu bar
- save the original audio file on your Mac
- create transcripts and summaries after recording
- work without a meeting bot joining the call
- keep recording if the internet drops, then process later
- give you files you can reuse in other AI tools, notes, docs, or projects
When transcription and summary are enabled, your recording is handled temporarily for processing. Transcrio does not keep your audio, transcripts, or summaries as permanent product storage. The working files stay with you locally on your Mac.
We would love feedback from people who record calls, interviews, lectures, support calls, sales calls, voice notes, browser audio, or any Mac audio they later want to turn into useful context.
If you had all your important calls, notes, and discussions saved as local audio + transcripts, what would you build on top of that?
Thanks for taking a look.
