What's new

Version: 1.6.0Latest

Released November 9, 2026

  • Hark is now Recount AI Notetaker. Same app, same account and price; your meetings, notes and speakers stay where they are.
  • Your AI app stays connected. Claude Desktop is pointed at Recount for you.

Version: 1.5.2

Released November 9, 2026

  • Fits small screens: on a laptop screen the meeting page scrolls instead of squeezing the transcript and speakers into a thin strip.
  • Get started stays out of the way: it now sits minimized at the bottom of the side bar; click it to see the steps.
  • Same progress on every computer: Get started remembers what you've done (and whether you hid it) on every computer you're signed in to, with or without sync.

Version: 1.5.1

Released November 9, 2026

  • People you didn't name keep their own voice: if you name some speakers during a meeting, everyone else now stays a separate "Speaker 3", "Speaker 4" and so on after processing, ready to name, instead of being folded into the people you named.
  • Participants help tell voices apart: the people you add as participants hint at how many voices to expect, so similar-sounding people are less likely to be merged.
  • Timeline marks sized to your zoom: dragging a speaker onto the timeline makes a short mark you can stretch, and no longer erases the speakers around it.

Version: 1.5.0

Released November 8, 2026

  • AI chat beside every page (Pro): open it with Ctrl+J and ask anything about your meetings. It reads the meeting you're looking at first, knows your name and points out what people asked of you. It can also write your notes, create tasks and projects, name speakers, change your settings and theme, and open pages. The chat is kept until you type /clear.
  • Briefing (the Dashboard, renamed; Pro): a summary of your last 7 days of meetings and what you need to do. Mark items Done, make them tasks, or hide them; Recount never suggests them again, and anything not checked off stays.
  • Search at the top of the window on every page (Ctrl+K).
  • Keyboard shortcuts you can change: Help > Keyboard Shortcuts (Ctrl+/) lists them all.
  • A new Settings page in the side bar, with search, plus new settings: the page Recount opens on, text size, and more.
  • Get started: a short tour the first time, and a checklist at the bottom of the window.
  • Polish: more of the transcript fits on a meeting's page, pages make room for the chat, and every pop-up matches your theme.

Version: 1.4.0

Released November 7, 2026

  • Meeting participants (Pro): paste the attendee list from an invite, an email or anywhere, or take a screenshot of it, and Recount reads out each person's name and email. Copy anyone's email with one click, and add, edit or remove people during the meeting or after it.
  • "Maybe Sarah?": when someone says a name just before another person speaks ("Sarah, what do you think?"), Recount suggests that name for the voice. One click to accept. Participants and names you've used before come first when naming voices.
  • A new Windows installer: Express installs with no questions; Advanced lets you choose where Recount and your recordings go, a desktop shortcut, and what Recount may send us. Recount updates itself with it from now on.
  • Deleting a meeting while Recount is still processing it now stops the processing cleanly.

Version: 1.3.0

Released October 30, 2026

Small fixes and improvements.

Version: 1.2.0

Released October 30, 2026

  • Mark who's talking during the meeting: add the people in the meeting, press whoever is talking (or Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2...) and watch it on a live timeline. You can also name a "Voice 2" right in the live transcript. Recount uses all of it when it finishes the transcript, so there's nothing to fix afterwards.
  • Echo removal: listening to the meeting on speakers? Recount takes the meeting audio back out of your microphone, so the other people come through the clear computer audio and your mic only carries your voice.
  • Recognize more people: anyone can set up Recount to recognize their voice on your computer. They sit down, read and sign the consent themselves, and read a short passage. Each voice is kept for 6 months and can be deleted any time.
  • Recount Pro: new accounts get their first 3 recorded meetings and 1 imported recording with every Pro feature, free. New in Pro: Word, PDF and subtitle exports, and search across every meeting's transcript. Enhance voices, projects and your stats are now part of Pro.
  • Updated Terms of Service (Recount asks you to accept them once).
  • A sharper Recount icon on Mac.

Version: 1.1.2

Released October 29, 2026

  • Check for Updates in Help > About, and the version you have is shown in the side bar.
  • Send feedback from inside Recount (Help > Send Feedback) with an idea or a problem.
  • Connect AI now walks you through any MCP app: Claude Desktop and Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, Copilot, Cursor, Windsurf, LM Studio and others.
  • On a Mac, the permissions walkthrough shows what you've already allowed.

Version: 1.1.1

Released October 29, 2026

  • Mac: computer audio stays in step with your microphone through quiet stretches.

Version: 1.1.0

Released October 29, 2026

  • Task board: keep track of to-dos, turn action items from meeting notes into tasks, and see your week on the new dashboard. Claude can read and update your tasks too.
  • Computer audio on Mac: Recount records the other side of the call on macOS 14.2 and newer.
  • A one-time walkthrough on Mac for the microphone, computer audio and screen recording permissions.
  • Enhance voices also removes background noise when you play a meeting back.
  • Crash reports and meeting counts help us fix problems. They never include anything from your meetings, and you can turn them off in Preferences > Privacy.

Version: 1.0.6

Released October 18, 2026

  • Recognize my voice: Recount can recognize your own voice, with your signed consent. It never keeps anyone else's.
  • Sync is end-to-end encrypted: only your computers can read what's synced.
  • Final meeting notes no longer show as a black box when a meeting opens.

Version: 1.0.5

Released October 17, 2026

  • Recount is free forever for everything that runs on your computer. New accounts get a 2-day preview of the AI features and sync.

Version: 1.0.4

Released October 17, 2026

  • Sync across my computers: meetings, names, preferences, note styles and themes.
  • Recount keeps your data outside its install folder, so updates never touch it, and Recount reopens after updating. Updating from 1.0.0-1.0.2 keeps all your data.
  • The Account page shows your plan and next charge, with Manage subscription.
  • Help > About shows which version you have.
