A ChatGPT plan or a key from the service you trust. It receives the transcript, never the audio, and Clario adds nothing to its bill.
Send the bot to Google Meet, Zoom or Teams. The recording comes back to your computer and is transcribed there.
How it works
Your microphone and your computer's audio, from any meeting app, kept as two tracks. Or a meeting in the room, on your computer or your phone.
The speech engine ships inside Clario, so every word is written on your computer. No recording goes to a transcription service.
Decisions, action items and what is still open, each line linked to the moment it came from. Press play beside a line to hear it said.
Ask across every meeting you have had, or about one call. Answers come with their sources, and each source opens the recording at that point.
Pick a meeting from Google Calendar or paste a Meet, Zoom or Teams link. Clario joins, even with your laptop closed, and the recording comes back to your computer to be transcribed there.
Action items with owners and dates, ticked off as they are done, and a summary anyone can read from a link.
Clario C1, our own speech model
Clario C1 is fine-tuned on real meeting speech, including the English and Hindi people mix at work. It is small enough to run on your laptop or your phone, so the transcript is written on your device, even offline.

Free to use. Bring the AI you already pay for.
Free on Mac and Windows. Three steps to your first minutes.
Clario for Mac (286 MB) or for Windows (256 MB). The phone app records the same way.

Press Record, drop in a file, or send the bot to a Google Meet link.
Yes. The app is free on Mac and Windows. The minutes are written by an AI service you connect, such as your ChatGPT plan or a key from OpenAI, Anthropic or Google, so that service's own charges and limits apply.
On your computer. Speech becomes text there, and no recording is sent to a transcription service. Clario does upload meeting audio to improve its transcription unless you switch off Help improve Clario; the privacy policy lists every path that leaves the computer.
Anything your computer plays, including Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams, because Clario records your microphone and your computer's audio. The meeting bot joins Google Meet, Zoom and Microsoft Teams.
No. Record on your computer without a bot, or send the bot to a Google Meet, Zoom or Teams call when you cannot be there. Let the people in the meeting know it is being recorded.
