C Client You You ### No bot in the call Resona listens on your Mac. Nobody sees an extra “assistant” in the participant list. ### The audio stays on your Mac Transcription runs on the computer itself, even offline. No account, no sign-up. ### Any call, and meetings in person In a call app, in the browser or in the meeting room. Russian and English, even mixed in one meeting. ### Context for your AI Meetings land in your notes folder, so your AI assistant knows what was agreed. ## Before, during and after the meeting. Nothing to set up: press Record, or say yes when Resona offers to record as the call starts. ### Come to the meeting prepared. Ten minutes before the call, Resona shows what you decided last time, who promised what and what is still open. No need to reread the thread. On Pro, with calendar access. ### During the call, listen to the person, not the keyboard. The text appears as you talk. Not sure what to ask? Press Copilot: Resona checks the conversation against past meetings and suggests questions. ### After the call, notes in one click. The key points, decisions and tasks with deadlines are ready in seconds. Copy them into an e-mail, a chat or your notes. [How it works: one working day, by role →](https://resona-app.ru/en/how-it-works/) ## Already have a recording? Transcribe it. A voice memo, a call recorded on your phone, a video of a meeting or a lecture: Resona transcribes the audio or video file right on your Mac. The file goes nowhere, and the recording becomes an ordinary meeting, with search, notes and a place in your notes folder. - **Audio and video.** m4a, mp3, wav, aac, flac, ogg, opus, amr, mp4, mov, webm and more. - **Offline.** Transcription runs on the Mac itself, just like a recorded call. - **Then, like any meeting.** Notes in one click, search with quotes, a note in your folder. On Pro: in the app it is the “Transcribe an audio file” button. ## A memory of every meeting. A week or six months later, ask in plain words. Resona finds who said what, with the quote and the date. ## Better than the transcript your call app makes. Many call apps now make their own transcript. It helps while every meeting happens in that one app and the organiser switches it on. Resona works with any call and remembers all your meetings together. A call app’s transcript Resona Where it works Only in its own app In any call app, in the browser and in the meeting room Who turns it on Often only the organiser, sometimes on a paid plan You, in any meeting, even when you are not the organiser Where the audio is processed On the service’s servers On your Mac, even offline History Separate in every app One history of every meeting, with search and quotes Before and during An assistant, if any, knows only the current call A “what we decided last time” card, and hints that remember past meetings Recordings you already have — Audio and video files: voice memos, phone calls, meeting videos Your AI assistant Sees only what you paste in by hand Reads every meeting from your notes folder, or directly over MCP If all your meetings happen in one app and its transcript is enough, you may not need Resona. It is for when calls happen in different places, some meetings are in person, and remembering what was agreed matters. ## A second brain for you and your AI. AI already writes e-mails, plans and reports fast. But it was not in your meetings, so it does not know what you agreed. Resona collects that context for you: meetings become notes in your folder, and your AI assistant reads them before it answers. - **Meetings, in your notes folder.** Plain text files any notes app opens. Free: with a button; on Pro: by themselves after the call. - **The assistant keeps it in order.** Copy the ready instruction from Resona’s settings and paste it into your AI assistant. It files meetings by people, projects and decisions, and keeps them up to date when you say “update”. - **Or directly, without a folder.** Assistants that support MCP read meetings straight from Resona. [What a second brain is and how to build one →](https://resona-app.ru/en/second-brain/) Resona sends nothing for this: the folder is read by the assistant you connected yourself. ## What stays on your Mac, and what leaves it. ### Always on your Mac - **The call audio**: never leaves the computer - **Transcription**: done on the Mac itself, offline - **History and search** across every meeting - **No account** and no telemetry ### Only when you press - **“Make notes” or “Copilot”**: that meeting’s text goes through the Resona server to the AI model provider - **The Resona server does not store the text**; it only counts requests - **Audio** never leaves, even then The details are in the [privacy policy](https://resona-app.ru/privacy.html#en). ## Start free. ### Free 0 ₽ forever - 5 meetings a month - Transcription on the Mac, offline - Search across every meeting, with quotes - Meetings to your notes folder, with a button - AI notes: 3 to try - Copilot: in 3 calls [Download](https://resona-app.ru/download/Resona.dmg) ### Pro 999 ₽ a month · or 6990 ₽ a year - Unlimited meetings - AI notes: 30 a month - Copilot: 10 hours a month - “Before the meeting” and attendees from your calendar - Meetings file themselves into your notes folder - Audio and video file transcription [Get Pro](https://resona-app.ru/en/buy/?plan=month) ### Pro Unlimited 2490 ₽ a month - Everything in Pro - Unlimited AI notes - Unlimited copilot, at any moment of a call [Get Unlimited](https://resona-app.ru/en/buy/?plan=unlimited) By card or SBP (Russian payment systems) or with Telegram Stars.

The internet is needed for updates, and for notes and copilot when you ask for them. ### Which call apps does Resona work with? Any of them. Resona records your Mac’s sound and your microphone, so it does not matter where the conversation happens: in an app, in the browser or in the room. ### Will the other people know I am recording? Resona adds no bot to the call, so it tells nobody anything by itself. Let people know yourself: it is good manners, and many companies’ rules require it. ### Which languages? Russian and English, including both in the same meeting. ### Can I transcribe a recording I already have? Yes, on Pro: an audio or video file is transcribed on the Mac and becomes an ordinary meeting, with search and notes. ### Where does a meeting’s text go? Nowhere, until you ask for notes or copilot yourself. Then that meeting’s text goes through the Resona server to the AI model provider; the Resona server does not store the text. The audio never leaves. ### Do I need an account? No. No account, no e-mail: download, install, record. Pro is tied to your Mac. ### Is there a Windows or phone version? For now, only a Mac with Apple Silicon (M1 or later) on macOS 14 or newer. A Windows version is being prepared: leave your e-mail in the Download section from a Windows computer and we will write once, when it is out. “I have five to eight calls a day. I wanted every meeting to turn itself into decisions and tasks, but I am not willing to keep work conversations in someone else’s cloud. That is how Resona started.” Sergey Sadovikov, CTO and maker of Resona ## Try it on your next call. Installing takes a minute: open the file and drag Resona to Applications.
