Latest

Safeclip v0.1.0

v0.1.0

This is the inaugural public release of Safeclip, a private and local-first application for notes, transcripts, and clips, built to run fully offline. Built for sensitive work, Safeclip is designed for professionals who work with confidential recordings and cannot use general-purpose cloud tools. Your notes, transcripts, and clips stay on your machine. There is no cloud to trust, because there is no cloud.

What's new

  • A local library, not only a clipper: Voice notes, meetings, imports, and typed notes live together on your machine, searchable, with the transcript attached.
  • Ask stays home: Ask questions across your library. The model runs on your computer. Nothing is uploaded.
  • Notes written when you stop recording: Summary plus transcript, stored on disk. Export Markdown, TXT, or SRT.
  • Therapy notes without a BAA: Sessions can live in a clients list. SOAP/DAP note formats are on the Founding license. Nothing leaves the device, so there is no cloud to sign a BAA with.
  • Clips and audiograms are still here: Trim a moment, caption it, export a waveform audiogram to disk. Same local path as the rest of the app.

Account & licensing

  • Free: sign in, capture without a meter, 10 clip/audiogram exports per month
