Tentaku is here: press Record, walk out with notes
2026-10-08 · Tentaku
Tentaku is out. Press ● Record when class starts; by the time you close your laptop you have clean notes, the moments you flagged, new flashcards and a plan for the week. Your audio never leaves your laptop — recording and transcription run on your computer.
What you get
- Free: one class with every feature, 3 recordings a week, forever. Every install starts with a 14-day Pro trial, no card.
- Pro: your whole schedule — $29 for a semester, or $49 a year. The first 100 students with a .edu email get the Founding plan.
- Your AI, your choice: one-click OpenRouter or an API key from Anthropic, OpenAI or Google, on Balanced or Best. No key? Recording, transcripts, search and your own flashcards work without AI, and Ask in Claude / ChatGPT / Gemini takes your notes to an AI app you already use.
- Works with the AI apps you use: a local connector for the Claude desktop app, Gemini CLI, Cursor, VS Code and LM Studio.
Downloads
- Mac — Intel: a normal release.
- Mac — Apple silicon (M1 and later): a Beta until it finishes hands-on testing on an M-series Mac. Same features, same files.
- Windows 10/11: a Beta. SmartScreen warns once; here’s how to open it.
Get it on the download page. Everything that changed is in the devlog.
Next up: one-tap AI setup, so you can start without picking a provider first.
