Record

One click — or let your calendar start it. Mic and system audio, so it works for Zoom, Meet, Teams, and the room you're sitting in. No bot joins the call.

Process

Local models transcribe, identify speakers, and extract summaries, commitments, and entities — on your hardware, even offline.

Explore

Search by meaning with typed filters, jump anywhere with ⌘K, and follow people and topics across every meeting you've ever had.

NOTES

A workspace, not a transcript viewer.

Open notes in tabs, edit them like a document — rich markdown tables included — and keep every line linked to the moment it was said. That’s a real capture, not a mockup.

THREADS

Every “I’ll do that” becomes a thread.

Commitments, decisions, and open questions are pulled out of the conversation automatically — with an owner, a deadline, and a link back to the exact moment it was said. Check them off, or let the next meeting close them for you.

SEARCH

Ask your meetings anything. Locally.

⌘K opens semantic search across every transcript, summary, and thread. Type filters as you think them — a person, a topic, a date range — and get the exact moment, not just the meeting it happened in.

ENTITIES

People and topics that compound.

Every person, company, and topic becomes an entity with its own timeline. Open “Acme” and see every mention across four months of meetings — what was promised, what changed, and who said it.

PRIVATE BY DEFAULT

Your meetings are the most sensitive data you produce. Treat them that way.

Cloud notetakers upload every word you say to someone else’s servers. threadfork’s entire pipeline — transcription, extraction, search, chat — runs on your Mac’s own silicon.

On-device processingAudio never leaves your machine. Models run locally on Apple Silicon.

No bot in the roomthreadfork listens from your computer’s audio. Nobody sees "Notetaker joined."
