Before you install

Mac support

Apple Silicon, macOS 26 or later. Intel, Windows and mobile builds are not included in this release.

On-device models

Apple speech and Apple Foundation Models need macOS 26 or later; Apple Intelligence must be enabled for the latter. Optional Parakeet supports English transcription. Model downloads require your approval.

Language & accuracy

English is the first focus. Hindi and mixed speech remain experimental. Always review transcripts, speaker labels and suggested actions.

Keep a backup. Test your setup.

Export a workspace backup regularly. Long live meetings, Bluetooth routing and sleep/wake recovery still need broader real-device testing. Try a short recording before relying on a new audio setup.
