01 · Import 02 · On-device transcript Create a timestamped transcript on your Mac.
The offline model handles transcription on-device, so your media never needs to be uploaded.
03 · Find the source Find the instructor’s original words.
Key points that match the transcript keep their timestamps and context. Playback starts three seconds early, so you can hear the full lead-in.
04 · Key points Organize the lecture for review.
Must-know material, core concepts, solution paths, common pitfalls, and assignments stay together.
05 · Lecture notes Create polished lecture notes.
Use your configured API or Terminal Studio to generate LaTeX. With BasicTeX installed, Recap can compile a PDF on your Mac and keep the source files.
Local-first
Transcription stays local.
You choose the AI.
Transcription runs entirely offline. When you extract key points or generate lecture notes through the API, Recap sends the required course text to the AI service you configured.
