# Capture

**Say anything. We'll sort it.**

A private Mac voice diary. Press a shortcut, speak, and your thoughts land in Notion as notes, tasks and reminders.

## Watch it work

A spoken capture sorted into notes, tasks and reminders, then how to set Capture up. Turn the sound on.

## How it works

```
⌃⌥ → speak → ⌃⌥ → transcribed on your Mac → sorted by Jev → you review → Notion + Mac reminders
```

- **Local speech.** Parakeet transcribes on your Mac. Audio never goes to an AI service.
- **Sorted, not rewritten.** Jev (TypeSafe) splits what you said into separate thoughts and files each one into your groups. Titles and bodies come from your own words.
- **You approve first.** Nothing reaches Notion until you press **Yes, save**, unless you turn on auto-save.
- **Notion is the library.** Captures, notes, tasks and the recording are saved under one Notion page you choose.
- **Reminders.** Approved tasks with a time become macOS notifications.
