Why an owl.

The barn owl, Tyto, hunts in total darkness by sound alone. It hears what no one else hears. Otyto does the same with your calls.

And in ancient Athens, the owl was money. Their silver coins carried Athena's owl, and people simply called them "owls".

OTYTO

Install in four steps.

  1. Open BlackBox.dmg from your Downloads and drag the app into Applications.
  2. Open it from Applications. The first time, macOS says it can't check the developer. Click Done, then open System Settings, go to Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway. You only do this once.
  3. Press Record. Allow the microphone and system audio when macOS asks, so it can hear you and the people on the call.
  4. Press Stop when the call ends. Your transcript is ready in a few seconds.

The app is still called Black Box while we finish renaming it to Otyto. Beta versions aren't notarized by Apple yet, which is why step 2 is needed. Updates arrive inside the app.
