Getting started

Recording your first session

Step-by-step through starting, monitoring, and finishing a recording.

This walks through a complete recording, from pressing record to walking away with a finished brief you can hand to your AI.

1. Start the recording

With the Mac app, launch a recording from the menu bar or with your global hotkey — no need to switch apps first. In the browser, click record on the landing page or in your dashboard and grant microphone access when prompted.

Note

Because Eavesy captures your screen and system audio, there’s no bot to invite and nothing for other participants to see. It works the same on Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, or an in-person conversation.

2. Watch it work

While you talk, two things build in real time:

  • a live transcript with sub-second latency, and
  • a running list of topics, decisions, and action items.

You don’t need to take notes — staying in the conversation is the point.

3. Stop and review

Press stop. A final pass produces the polished brief: title, TL;DR, decisions, and owner-tagged follow-ups, all sitting on top of the full transcript.

4. Keep, paste, or share it

  • Paste it into your AI — copy the brief straight into Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT. How that works →
  • Export it — Markdown, JSON, audio, or a ZIP. Exporting & your files →
  • Find it on disk — with the Mac app it’s already written to your folder as Markdown, JSON, and audio.
Tip

Want a different structure? Re-run the session through another template at any time — the transcript never changes, so you can try as many as you like.
