We're continuing to expand the types of content Recall supports while actively testing some big new features: chat, search, and bulk import of personal markdown.
It s been a big week at Recall, packed with meaningful improvements. We're continuing to make strides on search, Chat with Your Knowledge Base, and bulk content importing from Markdown, which will soon make it much easier to migrate from other note-taking apps.
Get notified of our upcoming Product Hunt Launch here!
Last week, we continued making progress on two major features: improved search and chat with your full knowledge base. These are large updates that will take approximately 3 4 weeks to roll out fully. We ve also begun development on a markdown file import feature, which will make it easier to migrate notes from tools like Notion and Obsidian.
Hello! The major release this week is the first version of our new Search UI. Search now opens in its own dedicated modal, giving you more space and control when exploring results. This is just the beginning more powerful search upgrades are on the way (see what s coming below).
With many Pocket users hunting for alternatives, we fast-tracked a Pocket import feature and it s here. You can now import up to 500 Pocket saves at a time directly into Recall, enabling you to use Recall as your Pocket alternative and experience an AI-powered Read-It-Later app. This is just the first version, and we re excited to improve it based on your feedback.
While we re heads down on bigger updates like improving search and enabling chat with your entire knowledge base, we re excited to share a few new improvements in the meantime:
You'll likely forget 90% of the content you consume within a week. Recall summarizes online content, connects it in a knowledge graph and resurfaces it on a schedule tailored to your learning curve, helping you remember the information you care about.
This week, we focused primarily on our larger initiatives improving search and enabling chat with your knowledge base. However, we still managed to ship the following updates:
Improvements:
Support for YouTube Videos with No Transcripts: We now generate our own transcripts for YouTube videos that don t already have them. If a video lacks a transcript, you ll see a message indicating that we're generating one. It may take a bit longer than usual to receive your summary.
1-Click Share: It s now easier to share cards with others (even if they don t have an account). Simply click the link icon in the top right corner of the card. When you share the link, others can view the content no sign-up required.
Improved Code Block Support: Code blocks now feature better formatting and syntax highlighting within the editor.
Table Pasting via Markdown: You can now paste Markdown that contains tables directly into the Notebook, and it will render correctly.
Improved Copy-Paste: The Copy button in the Notebook now copies content in multiple MIME types (not just Markdown), making it compatible with a wider range of editors.
Table & Code Block Support Within Reader: Content that includes tables and code blocks is now seamlessly stored and displayed within Recall.
Ever read something and think, 'I’ve seen this before'—but can’t remember where? Augmented Browsing resurfaces related content from your Recall knowledgebase, turning passive browsing into active discovery. Join 200K+ nerds and elevate how you consume content.
Hello everyone, more tweaks and bug fixes just landed. We appreciate your patience as we work through our bigger milestones - we had a delay as we faced some UI/UX challenges. The good news is that our designs are in the final stages, and we ll be sharing flow previews of search for your feedback next week in Discord!
Improvements:
Better Copy and Paste: Links and formatting are now correctly preserved when copying content from Recall to other apps.
Undo/Redo on Mobile: The editor toolbar now includes undo/redo options, extending this functionality to mobile.
