Waki Recorder / FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Is Waki Recorder a screen recorder?

No. It records the audio of meetings and produces a transcript with speakers and written minutes. Screen capture is what Waki Capture and Waki Region Share do.

Does the audio leave my Mac?

Transcription and speaker identification run locally. Only the text transcript is sent to the model you configure for minutes, and only if you enable that; a local Ollama model keeps everything on your machine.

What is the Android companion?

A phone app for meetings that are not on your screen: record in the room, and the recording flows into the same transcript-and-minutes pipeline.

Can I buy Waki Recorder now?

Not yet. It is being brought onto the Waki foundation with the rest of the family; this page will change when it is ready.

Which platforms?

macOS 14 or newer on Apple silicon for the recorder; Android for the companion.

Which computers are supported?

The current desktop apps require macOS 14 or newer on Apple silicon.

Can I buy or download it now?

Public purchases and downloads are coming soon. Private development releases are not public installers.

How will the license work?

The launch plan is a one-time purchase with a 14-day trial, a year of updates, two Macs per license and a 14-day refund window.
