Consent first
No silent recording, ever
Every capture starts with an explicit confirmation and runs with a persistent recording indicator. There is no auto-record setting to forget about. That is a design decision, not a missing feature.
Feature
Records the room.
Never the screen.
After you confirm, every time, Velora captures your microphone and your Mac’s audio as two tracks, keeps a visible recording indicator running, and turns the meeting into a transcript and notes you can search. All of it stays on your Mac.
What you get
A meeting memory you actually own.
Two tracks
Your mic and the room
Microphone and system audio are captured separately, so your voice and the other side stay distinct. Speaker separation labels who said what, without guessing at anyone’s identity.
Local processing
Transcript, notes, search
The same on-device models produce a transcript and structured notes. Processing is resumable (a long meeting keeps its progress) and everything is searchable, replayable, exportable and deletable from History.
Knows when it’s over
Ends with the meeting
When a native meeting app releases your microphone, Velora stops the capture on its own and starts processing. Browser calls can’t be pinned to one tab, so there Velora asks before it stops. Either way it is scoped to the call you approved; a browser call keeps recording until you answer or stop it.
The fine print
- Velora captures audio only — never your screen, slides, or camera.
- Call audio keeps playing during capture; meeting recording does not pause anyone’s playback.
- Recording other people may require their consent where you live — the confirmation step is there for a reason.
- Deleting a meeting from History permanently deletes its transcript and archived audio.
- Speaker separation uses a small set of models (about 46 MB) that download once, on first use.
