FAQ
Does tab recording mute my computer?
No. The extension reconnects captured tab audio to your output so you can keep listening while transcribing.
Can I edit transcript text?
Yes. Once recording or upload transcription is done, the transcript box becomes editable before copy, export, or summary.
Do I need a Groq key?
Yes for Groq transcription. Add your Groq transcription key in Settings. Web Speech can be used without a Groq key.
Where do I activate Pro?
Open Settings, use Upgrade & Activate Pro, buy a license, paste the license key, and click Activate.
