Overview

  • As of July 17, OpenAI has made Record Mode available to every ChatGPT Plus subscriber on macOS following its June launch for enterprise and education plans.
  • Users can capture both microphone and system audio locally, then upload up to 120 minutes of recordings for server-side transcription.
  • The feature delivers structured notes with summaries, timestamped references and action items before deleting the original audio file.
  • In-app prompts instruct users to secure proper consent and adhere to local recording laws before activating the tool.
  • Record Mode remains exclusive to the macOS desktop app, with no announced rollout for Windows, Android or web versions.
