Download Workbench
The desktop app is Workbench at its best: a hotkey away from any app, recording calls from the menu bar, and nudging you before things slip.

What the desktop app adds
Everything in the web app, plus the things only a native app can do.
Quick capture from anywhere
⌃ ⌥ Space opens a floating capture bar over any app.
Botless meeting recording
Captures your mic and system audio from any call app. Start and stop with ⌘ ⌥ R.
Lives in your menu bar
A tray icon with a live recording timer. Close the window and Workbench keeps running.
Native notifications
Deadline reminders and your morning summary, delivered by the OS, not a browser tab.
Call detection
Notices when a Zoom meeting starts and offers to record it, so you never forget to hit the button.
Updates itself
New versions download in the background and install the next time you restart.
