You start a session.
Nothing is captured until you start one. Cyrano takes your microphone, system audio, or both, through the devices you already wear.
Introducing Cyrano
Cyrano listens when you ask it to, transcribes on your device, and makes the useful parts of a conversation available to you and the agents you choose.
00 / The shape of it
One rail with three stops. You start a session, your Mac turns it into text, and the useful part goes wherever the work already lives.
Nothing is captured until you start one. Cyrano takes your microphone, system audio, or both, through the devices you already wear.
Speaker labels, the live transcript, and the decisions and open threads that are easy to lose. All of it runs on your machine.
A local agent over MCP, a note, your calendar, a webhook, or an encrypted second device. The handoff is the product.
01 / Ambient, not absent
Start a session. Put your AirPods in. Continue with the work.
Cyrano can capture your microphone, system audio, or both. It labels speakers, keeps a live transcript, and extracts the decisions and open threads that are easy to lose.
When you need the context elsewhere, it can move to a local agent over MCP, a note in Obsidian, your calendar, a webhook, or an encrypted second device. The handoff is the product.
02 / Private by default
Transcription, speaker labels, and the live map run on your Mac. Dictate anywhere is also on-device when enabled through Pro or a configured backend. Raw audio stays local unless you separately enable cloud transcription.
Lifetime Pro adds the full smart layer on-device. Hosted Copilot sends transcript text, not raw audio, to Cyrano’s service for analysis. The local MCP bridge stays on the Mac. Each route is explicit, scoped, and reversible.
Available on macOS 14+
The notarized Mac app includes on-device session transcription. A three-day Pro trial also enables on-device Dictate anywhere. No account is required to start.
