Backtrack is a meeting recording app that overwrites a 5 hour window of audio/video over and over throughout the day, locally on your Mac. It allows you to privately save anything you've seen, said, or heard in the past and turn it into AI notes/summaries.
I have been one of the lucky early adopters of Backtrack and I don't think words can convey how much it has improved my workflow. I look at it as my super charged memory booster and I NEVER have to remember to record a meeting ever again. I've introduced it to my team and we cancelled a more well known competitor product because we all use and love Backtrack. I'm at the point where if someone doesn't want to use Backtrack...well, more advantage for me. Great job Hunter and Jordan -- you are exceptional humans!
I’ve been using Backtrack since version 1.x and v2.x is such a huge improvement. It has allowed me to go back over internal discussions and meetings to allow me to check on what may have been missed during normal note-taking. I haven’t used the cloud recordings to generate transcripts and summaries yet, but I’m sure I saw it mentioned that generating transcripts and summaries would soon be available without uploading to the cloud (please correct me if I am wrong). All-in-all, I cannot fault Backtrack – everyone should use it!
Backtrack is a great tool that I use throughout the day, not just for recording meetings, but for going back in time to check something I had seen or been doing earlier on my Mac. My only issue with the app is that it turns the video black on Apple TV+ when it is running in the background. It took me a while to figure this out!
