Remember everything explained to you.

An example Pouchette note line, “You own the health-check rollout. Ship Friday.”, linked to 14:28 in the recording, where you said “Friday works. I’ll own the health-check rollout.”

Pouchette records meetings, lectures and calls on your Mac. Every line of its notes takes you back to the moment it was said.

It made sense when they said it.

Two days later your notes say “rollback is automatic? I think”, and asking again feels worse than guessing. Pouchette keeps the part you half-heard, with the moment it was said.

It listens, writes, and keeps the receipts.

  1. 1

    It listens.

    Press record from the menu bar or ⌃⌥⌘R. It hears your mic and your Mac’s audio; no bot joins the call.

  2. 2

    It writes as you go.

    Notes form while people talk: the summary, key points and open questions, each linked to its line in the transcript.

  3. 3

    If you drift, glance.

    A small window floats above the call and shows what you missed since you last looked.

  4. 4

    When you stop, it checks.

    It works out who said what, and flags any note line it can’t match to the transcript. It flags; it doesn’t fact-check.

Ask across every meeting.

Weeks later, ask in plain words. The answer is pieced together from every meeting or lecture where it came up, and each part keeps its thread to the source. If it can’t find something, it says so.

Questions before you install

Is it free?

Yes, for work and personal use, with nothing paywalled. No account, and no AI subscription needed.

Does it record on its own?

Never. You press record; the menu bar icon turns red and shows the time while it records.

Which apps does it work with?

Anything that plays audio on your Mac: Zoom, Meet, Teams, Slack huddles, a recorded lecture. A conversation in the room works too.

Can I use my Claude or ChatGPT subscription?

Yes, through Claude Code or Codex signed in on your Mac, so there’s no API key to paste.

Can my team see my notes?

Not automatically. Notes live on each person’s Mac; share a follow-up email, a decision log or a redacted share pack.

What do I need?

A Mac with Apple Silicon on macOS 14 or later. Updates are signed, and it asks before installing one.
