Try the Aftercall test build

A build for early testers. Notes are real; money isn't: payments run on NEAR testnet with test USDC. Recaps open in your own Mail app, or go through Aftercall when you choose Send.

It downloads the same build, checks its fingerprint, puts Aftercall in Applications and opens it, with no macOS warning. That skips Apple's check, so you're trusting this site instead.

Or download it, then open it the first time
  1. 01Drag it to ApplicationsOpen the downloaded file and drag Aftercall into Applications.
  2. 02Open it oncemacOS says “Apple could not verify ‘Aftercall’ is free of malware”, because this build isn't notarized yet. Click Done, not Move to Bin.
  3. 03Allow itIn System Settings › Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway next to Aftercall. macOS asks once; after that it opens like any app.

Can't run it yet?

The test build runs on Macs with macOS 14.2 or later, on NEAR testnet. Join the waitlist for a Windows build, for mainnet and a signed app, or just for news.

I'm waiting for

Only to tell you when what you picked is ready. Never shared, never sold.

What it will ask for, and why

macOS asks the first time each one is needed. The wording below is what the prompt says.

What you need

  • A Mac on macOS 14.2 or laterAftercall records the call's audio with a Core Audio tap, so it runs on a Mac only. The test build runs on both Apple silicon and Intel.
  • A NEAR testnet account, to try paymentsOptional. Settings › NEAR walks you through one. Test USDC is free from Circle's faucet at faucet.circle.com: pick NEAR Testnet.
  • Your own NEAR AI keyFrom cloud.near.ai. Notes run on it, and each run shows an estimated cost.

First run

  1. 01Check your audioPlay something with sound and say a few words. macOS asks for the microphone and system audio here. The test recording is deleted straight away.
  2. 02Add your NEAR AI keyPaste a key from cloud.near.ai. Aftercall checks it and keeps it in your Keychain. You can record without one; notes wait until you add it.
  3. 03Record a callStart the call in any app, then press ⌘⇧R: it works from any app while Aftercall is running, unless another app already uses it or you turn that off in Settings. Or press New recording, or use the menu bar. Tell everyone you're taking notes; Aftercall asks you to confirm it.
  4. 04Approve the follow-upsDraft a recap in Mail, or send it through Aftercall once a NEAR testnet account is connected in Settings, which signs you in. Payments use that account's agent wallet, with test money.
