What Prokoll does differently
Nobody joins the call
Prokoll records your microphone and the sound your Mac plays, so both sides of a Zoom, Teams or Meet call are in the notes.
Encrypted on this Mac
Meetings are encrypted and saved only on your Mac. The recording is deleted once it has been transcribed. There is no account.
Works without the internet
Once the first download is done, Prokoll records, transcribes and writes notes with the internet switched off.
Pay once
Every update we release is included, and your licence never expires.
