Review, send, and recall
Nothing leaves your Mac until you say so. When you stop a recording, the review window shows exactly what you captured — and you decide whether it gets sent or deleted.
The review window
- Click Stop Recording in the menu bar.
- The review window opens with your capture. Play it back if you want.
- Give the recording a title. Whatever you type here stays as the video's name in the Library — the AI writes the summary and tags, but it never renames your video.
- Click Send to upload, or Delete to discard it entirely. Deleted recordings never leave your machine.
Uploading happens in the background
After you click Send, the recorder handles the rest — you can close the laptop lid mid-upload and it will pick up where it left off. Failed uploads retry automatically with increasing delays. A poster-frame thumbnail is generated on your Mac and uploaded alongside the video, so the Library card looks right immediately.
Processing on the server starts the moment the upload completes. Most recordings are fully processed — transcript, summary, chapters, search — within a minute or two.
The 15-minute recall window
Sent something you shouldn't have? For 15 minutes after sending, the menu-bar menu offers Recall on your most recent upload.
Warning: Recall is a full delete, and processing starts immediately at upload — so recall erases everything: the video, its transcript, and any documents already generated from it. It cannot be undone. After 15 minutes, the recall option expires; you can still delete the video from the Library like any other.
The activity log
The recorder keeps a plain-English log of everything it does — every recording, every send, every recall — on your Mac. Open it from the menu-bar menu (Activity Log). No hidden behavior: if it's not in the log, it didn't happen.
Local copies of sent recordings are kept on your Mac for 3 days as a safety net, then cleaned up automatically.
FAQ
I hit Send but the video isn't in my Library yet.
Give it a minute — the upload runs in the background and retries if your network drops. If it still hasn't appeared, check the recorder's Activity Log; a "Sent" line means it made it. See Troubleshooting if not.
Can I recall something after 15 minutes?
Not from the recorder — but you (or a workspace admin) can delete the video from the Library at any time, which removes it and its generated content.
