Download MLOG
Local-first desktop capture — audio is encrypted to this machine before anything else, so a dropped network never loses a meeting. Capture comes straight off this machine: it doesn’t join and sends no bot, so it needs nothing from the other side’s meeting software or IT policy.
Set up macOS permissions in three steps
MLOG never sends a bot into your call — it listens to this computer directly, which needs two macOS permissions. Under a minute, one-time setup.
Allow microphone access
On first launch macOS shows this request. Click “Allow” — this is your side of the conversation, and audio is encrypted to this Mac before any processing.

Turn on Screen Recording
System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen Recording, then switch MLOG on. macOS delivers system audio (the other side’s voice) through this permission — MLOG never captures or uploads your screen.
Verify with a 10-second test
Back in MLOG, run a test take. When the amber badge lights up in the menu bar and both channel meters move, you are set. It keeps recording offline — local-first, processed once you reconnect.
On Windows no screen-recording permission is needed — MLOG is ready right after install.
What MLOG needs to run
| Item | macOS | Windows | Mobile |
|---|---|---|---|
| OS version | macOS 14.4 Sonoma or later | Windows 10 / 11 (64-bit) | iOS 16+ / Android 12+ |
| Chip / architecture | Apple Silicon and Intel, one installer each | x64 | — |
| Memory | 8 GB or more | 8 GB or more | — |
| Disk space | 400 MB install + local recording cache | — | |
| Permissions | Microphone + Screen Recording (system audio only — no bots, no screen uploads) | Microphone + system audio | Microphone + notifications |
| Network | Records fully offline — audio is encrypted to disk first and processed when you reconnect. A dropped network never loses a meeting. | Capture is local-first too; sync needs a connection | |
Quietly up to date
Updates yield to meetings: they never interrupt a recording in progress and never touch your local data.
Update checks
MLOG tells you when a new version is out and takes you to the download page — you decide when to install, so nothing restarts in the middle of a meeting. Updates never touch your local recordings or minutes.
Release cadence
One feature release per month; security fixes ship immediately. Every update comes with plain-language release notes.
Code signing
Installers are not code-signed or notarized. macOS asks you to confirm on first launch and Windows SmartScreen warns once — both are one-time, and each download button says exactly what your system will ask.
Bring your Advisor to the next meeting
Invite codes go out in application order — request yours now and get the installer first.
