Never forget to hit record.

RecordCue watches for the moment a call starts on your Mac and puts a cue on screen. One press and it is recording — your voice and theirs, in one file.

Coming to the Mac App Store. macOS 13 or later, Apple silicon.

It notices. You press once.

RecordCue watches which application has opened the microphone. When it is one it knows, the cue appears — with the name of the call on it, so there is no question what you are about to record.

It never starts on its own. Every recording begins with a press, and the cue goes away if you ignore it.

The RecordCue cue: “Google Meet call — Chrome is using the microphone”, with buttons for Audio only, Google Meet window, Whole screen and An area.

Both sides of the call, in one file.

Your microphone and whatever your Mac is playing, mixed as it records. Headphones change nothing — the other side is taken from the audio itself, not from a speaker.

Or record the screen with it: the whole display, one window, or an area you drag. Every mode is in the free version.

The RecordCue window, offering Both sides, Just me and Just them for audio, and Whole screen, A window and An area for screen recording.

It writes down who said what.

When a recording finishes, RecordCue transcribes it using the speech recognition built into macOS, and marks each passage with which side was speaking. The transcript is a plain text file saved next to the recording. Nothing is uploaded.

Mic = your microphone · System = what your Mac played · Both = neither was clearly louder[0:00] System: Right, everyone's here. Shall we start with the pricing?
[0:06] Mic: Yes. I moved it to a one-time purchase over the weekend.
[0:13] System: One-time. So there's no renewal to chase at all.
[0:19] Mic: None. Ten minutes free per recording, then you buy it once.
[0:27] Both: Sorry, go ahead — no, you first.
[0:31] System: Agreed. Can you send me the numbers after this?

And it knows when to stop.

The call ends and RecordCue asks. Stop and save, or keep going — nothing is left running for an hour after everyone has hung up, and nothing stops without being told to.

A prompt reading “Google Meet call ended — still recording, 38:12”, with Stop and save and Keep recording.

One price, once.

Only the length of a recording is sold. Detection, the cue, every capture mode, transcription and filing are in the free version and stay there.

Nothing leaves your Mac.

There is no account and no server. RecordCue makes no network requests of its own — the only connection involved is the one the App Store makes to sell it. Speech recognition is forced to run on the device. Recordings, transcripts and settings never go anywhere.

Read the privacy policy — it is short, because there is not much to say.
