One assistant for everything you say.

Captylo is more than dictation. You write with your voice in any app, record meetings without a bot and collect voice notes. Captylo AI ties it all together so you can ask about it, and over MCP your own AI assistant can reach it too.

DictationAvailable

Write with your voice in any app

Hold Right Option and speak. The text lands at your cursor, and AI modes turn it into an email, a to-do list or English.

All about dictation

MeetingsAvailable

Meeting transcripts and notes, no bot

Captylo records your microphone and the computer’s audio in Meet, Zoom or Teams. It writes the call down live, and afterwards gives you AI notes with decisions and tasks.

Captylo AI, MCP and API

You ask, Captylo answers with a quote

Ask Captylo AI about what was said in your meetings and get an answer with the time stamp it comes from. Over the MCP server your own AI assistant reads the same data, and the API will open it to your automations.

  • Ask about one meeting or all of them (Pro)
  • An MCP server on your Mac, in Free too
  • A public API for your automations: coming soon

A concept of the Captylo device: a thin card attached magnetically to the back of a phone, and a recording pen
Concept

Captylo deviceComing soon

Record before you reach for your phone.

This is where we are heading: a thin card attached magnetically to your phone and a pen for your pocket. One button records a conversation, a lecture or a thought, and it all lands in Captylo as a transcript and a note.

  • A MagSafe card, always on your phone
  • A pen that records with one click
  • Recordings go straight into the app

I built the tool I use every day.

Hi, I'm Dawid. I've been building digital products for over ten years, and these days I talk to my Mac more than I type on it: emails, prompts, notes. Over half a million words so far.

I couldn't find an app that really gets Polish, works without the internet and keeps my voice on my own computer. So I made one.

And one more thing: I wanted it to be beautiful. Dictation apps that work already exist, but this one is in front of me all day, so Captylo had to be a pleasure to look at too.

Your next email can be spoken.

Captylo for Mac is free, with no account and no word limit. New versions arrive in the app.
