Lunir records and transcribes what people actually say: meetings, online calls, lectures, interviews, an appointment at the doctor. That is the everyday job, and it is what most people open Lunir for. Everything else is built on top of it. DURING THE CONVERSATION Open the live assistant and it follows along with you. • Translation as it happens. Choose a language and the translation runs on screen; with headphones connected it is also read aloud in your ear, so you can follow a conversation you would otherwise miss. • Ask, and it answers. Type a question — "sum this up", "what did they say about the deadline?" — or press the ask button to have it pick up the question that was just put to you out loud. Answers are built from the whole session so far, and can draw on this conversation, on your earlier recordings, or on general knowledge. Nothing is answered on its own: it replies only when you ask it to. • An earlier recording can come back by itself. When the talk drifts onto something you have discussed before, a quiet card appears with that recording and the moment inside it. • On Mac, a Code tab reads a window you pick and works through the problem on screen. A live session is for the moment itself — it is not saved into your library. AFTER THE CONVERSATION • Meaning, not keywords. Ask your library a question in ordinary words and get an answer with links to the exact moments. The search index is stored on your device and the matching runs locally. • Similar recordings, computed entirely offline on your device. • Automatic titles, dialogue split by speaker, editable text, your own prompts and a prompt library, and translation of a finished transcript into 79 languages. • Action cards: agreements, calls and meetings found in the text, added to Calendar, Contacts or Reminders in one tap. • A weekly digest of the past week's recordings. • AI chat on any transcript — ask it to summarise, pull out tasks, or rewrite. RECORDING, IMPORT, EXPORT Crash-resistant recording that survives an interrupted session. Import audio and video files. Merge, trim and split. Transcription covers sessions of up to 10 hours; past that, Lunir offers to split the file into parts. Export to TXT, PDF, DOCX, CSV, Markdown or SRT. MAC, WATCH AND WIDGETS On Mac, Lunir records your microphone and the system audio together, so both sides of a Zoom, Meet or Teams call land in one transcript. Copy any recording to iCloud, pCloud or Google Drive and open it on another device. Apple Watch, widgets, Live Activity and Dynamic Island. PRIVACY Transcripts, translations, AI results and cloud copies are encrypted with AES-256-GCM, and your key is kept in the Keychain. Off-Grid switches off Wi-Fi and mobile data on your device in one tap, so nothing interrupts a recording. Connect your own LLM provider, or open your transcripts to AI agents over MCP. PLANS Base is free and covers recording, transcription, search across your library, action cards, the weekly digest, transcript translation and export — within a monthly usage limit, shown as a 0-100% bar with its reset date. Pro, Max and Max+ are monthly subscriptions. They add the live assistant (live translation, live answers, the Mac Code tab), import by link, Off-Grid, MCP access, your own AI provider, professional-term dictionaries, personal-data masking, Shortcuts, AI-built PDF documents and PDF mailing. The three differ only in the size of the limit: Max is 5x Pro, Max+ 8x. A subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your App Store account settings.
