# NotchLive

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/558133/NotchLive

> NotchLive is a private live captioning app for Mac. It captions system audio and microphone speech in real time, translates live captions, saves local transcript sessions, and helps turn meetings or voice notes into useful summaries on supported Macs.

Unlike meeting bots, NotchLive runs on the user’s Mac and does not need to join Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, browser calls, lectures, videos, or demos as a participant. Users can caption audio from the Mac itself, their microphone, or both, then review sessions later.

NotchLive is built for people who want captions during calls, online classes, videos, podcasts, demos, presentations, and everyday Mac audio. It also includes tools for live translation, voice notes, saved sessions, transcript export, caption styling, keyboard shortcuts, and Ghost Mode for keeping captions out of shared screens or recordings.

Audio stays local instead of being uploaded to a cloud transcription service. This makes NotchLive useful for solo work, private calls, sensitive meetings, accessibility workflows, and anyone who wants real-time captions without adding another meeting recorder.
