CaptiOCR: Your Digital Notebook, Not a Recording Tool
Taking Notes, Not Recording Conversations
CaptiOCR is not a recording tool. Instead, it works like a digital notebook, helping you capture important details from live captions in real-time. Just as you might manually write notes during a meeting, CaptiOCR automates this process, making it easier and more efficient.
🔹 Why CaptiOCR is Different from Recording Tools
Unlike traditional meeting recordings or speech-to-text AI tools, CaptiOCR:
- Does not record audio or video – It only extracts text that is already visible on-screen.
- Does not require consent for recording – Since it works like manual note-taking, it does not create privacy concerns.
- Does not store data on external servers – Everything stays on your device, ensuring complete privacy.
- Only captures what is visible in real-time – If captions disappear, there is nothing to extract, making it different from a full recording.

Comparison between CaptiOCR and Classical Transcription Assistants
🔹 Why This Matters
Many platforms, such as Zoom and Google Meet, require explicit user consent before recording a meeting. CaptiOCR, however, functions just like taking notes on a notepad – it simply helps you organize your thoughts without invading privacy.
