Review clean transcript
Nothing changes until you apply it.
Refine only after you review the result.
On compatible Macs, Apple Intelligence can propose a cleaned transcript, executive summary, or to-do list. Compare the proposal with the original, then apply it or keep your words unchanged.
- Applied refinements can be undone.
- Checklist items can be sent to a chosen Reminders list.
- The raw capture remains ready when Apple Intelligence is unavailable.
Setup is explicit because trust should be visible.
