free public beta

Your business line,
on your Mac.
Recorded and transcribed.

WaveKat Voice is a phone app for your Mac. Connect the phone provider you already use, and answer and place calls right from your laptop — with every conversation recorded and written down for you automatically, and nothing leaving your Mac unless you want it to.

macOS 12+ · Macs with Apple chip (M1 or newer) · v0.0.21 · free during beta

What it does

Calls from your Mac

Answer and place calls right from your laptop — no desk phone, no extra hardware, no browser tab to babysit. It waits quietly in your menu bar until the phone rings.

Every call recorded

Each conversation is recorded automatically and saved the moment you hang up. Play it back whenever you need it — no setup, nothing to remember to switch on.

Live transcription

See the words as they're spoken. A running transcript sits alongside the call, so you can take in what matters instead of scribbling notes.

Works with your provider

Bring the phone provider you already use — Twilio, Telnyx, 2talk, and more. Pick it from the list and the setup is filled in for you.

Sync if you want

Sign in to your WaveKat account and your recordings and transcripts sync up so you can review them on the web. Don't sign in, and everything simply stays on your Mac.

Yours by default

Your calls, recordings, and transcripts live on your own computer first. Nothing is uploaded unless you choose to — no mystery company sitting between you and your customers.

How it works

  1. 1
    Connect your number

    Sign in to your phone provider when you first open the app. Choose it from the list and the settings are filled in for you.

  2. 2
    Take the call

    A green dot means you're online and reachable. Answer, dial out, mute, use the keypad — all from your Mac.

  3. 3
    Review it later

    Every call lands in your history with its recording and transcript, ready to revisit or sync to the web.

Questions & answers

What exactly is WaveKat Voice?

A Mac app that turns your computer into your business phone. You sign in with your phone provider, and from then on you can answer and place calls right from your laptop — with each call recorded and written down for you.

Do I need any special hardware?

No. If you have a Mac and an account with a phone provider, you have everything you need. No desk phone, no extra equipment — a headset is nice but not required.

Which phone providers does it work with?

Most of the common ones — Twilio, Telnyx, 2talk, and more. We fill in the setup for the providers we know; for anything else you can enter the details yourself. If you already make business calls over the internet, your provider almost certainly works.

Where are my recordings and transcripts kept?

On your Mac. Nothing is uploaded unless you decide to. If you sign in to a WaveKat account, your recordings and transcripts can sync so you can review them on the web — otherwise they never leave your computer.

Is it free?

It's free to use during the beta while we polish it with real businesses. WaveKat Voice will become a paid product later — beta users will get plenty of notice before that changes.

What does it run on?

It's a Mac app — it runs on macOS 12 and later, on Macs with Apple chip (M1 or newer).

Why Mac only — will you support Windows or other devices?

We started with Mac so we could make one version genuinely great before spreading ourselves thin. Other platforms are absolutely on the table — we just build them when there's real demand. So if you'd use WaveKat Voice on Windows or somewhere else, please tell us. The more people who ask, the sooner it happens. Tell us what you need

Will it slow down or interfere with my computer?

It's a lightweight menu-bar app that stays out of your way until a call comes in, and it updates itself quietly in the background. You install it once and forget it's there.
