Notes that write themselves, with nothing in the room.
Nod listens through your Mac's own audio, so no bot appears in the participant list and no banner fires on anyone's screen. You get the transcript, the summary, the decisions and the action items — and the audio is thrown away the second the text comes back.
Free for macOS · no card
On your screen
It sits where your Mac already has room.
The surface follows the call rather than covering it: context while you're still talking, then the recap when it ends. Both shapes below are the real thing — which one you get is decided by your Mac, not by a setting.
I’m already looking for relevant context.
On a notch Mac it hangs from the bezel and fills space nothing else can use. On an external display, or any Mac from before 2021, it's a floating card below the menu bar instead — Nod picks for you.
Captures
Your Mac's audio, and your mic
It hears the call the way your Mac does — both sides, whatever app it's in. It never joins the meeting to do it.
Doesn’t touch
- The participant list — nothing joins it
- Your screen shares and recordings, unless you turn the panel on
- Video, and any kind of screenshot
- The audio itself, which is never stored
- Meetings you didn't start it for
Every conversation, not just the ones on Zoom.
Because capture happens at the operating-system level rather than through a meeting integration, the app the call is in stops mattering.
Zoom, Meet and Teams
All three, with nothing to install in them and no host permission to ask for.
Huddles and calls
A Slack huddle, a Discord call, FaceTime, or a phone on speaker next to your Mac.
The room you're in
An in-person conversation, captured through the microphone the same way.
Fourteen languages
It follows the language the meeting is held in, and switches when you do.
One shortcut, then nothing.
Start it
One shortcut, or let it notice the meeting. Nothing joins the call and nobody is told a tool is running.
Talk normally
Speaker labels are worked out on your Mac. The audio is transcribed in seconds and then discarded.
Leave with it written
Summary, decisions and action items are ready before the next call starts, and join the memory you can ask across.
No bot joins
Nod listens through your Mac. Nothing new shows up in anyone's call.
Audio is never stored
Transcribed, then discarded. Notes are encrypted; your data never trains a model.
Works on day one
A Mac and any Google account is all it takes. 14-day free trial, no card.
Questions about Meeting Notes
Does a bot join my meeting?
No. Nod captures your Mac's system audio rather than dialling in, so there's no participant, no "Nod has joined" moment and no link to share with the host. That is not the same as consent: recording law varies, and some of it asks everyone on the call to agree, so tell people you're taking notes. See the recording & consent guide.
Do you store the audio?
No. It's held in memory only long enough to chunk and transcribe (about five seconds), then released — no file, no waveform, no cloud-stored recording. Only the transcript and summary are kept, encrypted at rest in the EU. Details on the security page.
Is transcription on-device?
Capture and voice detection are. Transcription is not: each chunk goes through our European proxy to a hosted model under Zero Data Retention and no training, and the audio is discarded the moment the text returns. To be clear, it does leave your Mac to be transcribed.
Does Nod show up when I share my screen?
No, not unless you ask it to. Nod's panel is excluded from screen shares and recordings by default, under a setting called “Show Nod when you share your screen”. That is there to protect you rather than to hide anything from the room: the panel can be showing your past calls and open commitments, and none of that belongs on a projector. Turn it on when you actually want to present with Nod visible, or record a walkthrough.
What if I don't want a particular meeting captured?
Then don't start it — nothing runs on its own until you say so, and there's no calendar rule quietly deciding for you. Mid-call you can pause or stop, and any session can be deleted outright, along with its transcript and summary, from inside the app.
What do I get back?
A transcript with speaker labels, a summary, the decisions, and the action items with whoever owns them. Export any meeting as Markdown, or everything as JSON, whenever you want.
Useful on day one. Hard to work without by month three.
