Recall 2.0

Amazing!Recall has always been the best summariser. I expect it to become the best... I don't know... AI-riser?

This feels like a big step forward for personal knowledge management. Being able to chat with your own sources instead of the open web is huge. How do you surface the most relevant sources in responses?

Congrats on the launch!

How do you position Recall against Google NotebookLM on grounded Q&A, and against Obsidian on long-term ownership—specifically: what’s your stance on data portability (complete exports including uploaded files) and what level of privacy/encryption are you aiming for as a baseline?

This is a very handy extension. I tested it with a video in Portuguese, and I was really curious to see how it would perform.The results were fast and quite good, in just a few seconds, I had a clear summarized version of the content, which made it much easier to understand the video.I did notice a few minor typos (for example, with words like “Claude”), but nothing that takes away from the overall experience.Overall, it’s a solid tool with a lot of potential, especially for anyone looking to turn content into something more actionable and easy to revisit.

I've subscribed and paid the annual plan, but since couple of days application was logging me out, right now I am unable to login via Apple SSO

I have been a user from the very start of Recall, and it has consistently improved over time. Lately, it seems the development team has gone into acceleration mode, and I consider it now the standard for doing research on the web. The ability to chat with my whole knowledge base and to be able to create flashcard reviews is awesome. And today it also got the academic stamp of approval from the infamous Andy Stapleton: https://youtu.be/wkwYcNu8yNY?si=FYQ5RCO89u1IFYnj They have a very active discord community and developers respond quickly when there is an issue. The latest improvement, which lets me choose whether to chat only with my KB or include the web, is fabulous. If you are not into Recall yet, you owe it to yourself to explore it!

An AI that remembers my research better than I do. I can finally stop pretending my Second Brain is a messy folder of 400 unread bookmarks and admit it's just Recall.

It’s been wild building Recall 2.0! What excites me most about 2.0 isn’t a specific feature. It’s the shift in mindset. Your knowledge first, AI second. That’s what we believe in.Really proud of how the team showed up for this, and grateful to the community for constantly pushing us to do better.We’re just getting started.

Experience: It's been being part of this awesome team producing this incredible app. I can't wait to see how it delights our users!

Wow, this is such a huge milestone for Recall. I can't believe how far we've come. The last few weeks have been a real grind getting this release out, and I'm so grateful for the team. We're usually fully remote, but for this launch we all flew out to Cape Town and rented a hacker house. It's been amazing spending time in person, getting to know everyone beyond the screen. Really excited for this new chapter; this feels like just the beginning as we have so much to more still to come.

Super amazing product, so proud of the team to keep delivering the best product for learning and managing personal knowledge. Great job everyone!

Congratulations to our incredibly talented and passionate team. It's been a crazy few months working on this new launch, and I'm so proud to see how it's turned out. My personal favourite feature of this is the Agentic Chat. It makes it a lot easier for me rather than going back and tagging my content. I can just ask in the chat, which makes it a lot simpler.

What started as a simple Hacker News post from Paul in November 2022, "A tool to help you remember shit you are interested in," has, three years later, transformed from a summarizing tool into a platform that brings your knowledge to the forefront.Recall 2.0 isn't just a feature launch. There has been a series of updates building to this point. What we've envisioned is a place where people intentionally engage with their saved content, learn from it, and bring that knowledge to the center.Everyone is looking to AI for answers. But with Recall, you can prioritize your own knowledge first and foremost. Choose to chat with your saved insights and invite the internet in as a supplement. That's the priority order we believe it should follow.This update lets you get answers that no other AI can provide, as it is grounded in the sources you intentionally chose to save and the notes you specifically took. Ask questions, and Recall pulls from your curated knowledge base."What did that sleep podcast say about melatonin timing? Find me the clip." [It pulls the exact moment where something was mentioned, and you can even play the clip inside Recall without breaking your flow.]"Condense my last six months of research and notes into references with timestamps, page numbers, and quotes. Also see if any new studies are out." [Combine your personal knowledge and invite the internet in to see what is new and what you might be missing.]"Pick a movie for tonight based on everything I've loved this year." [Just a fun one. Save all the movies you love to Recall, write your reviews, and then let Recall make a recommendation based on your own notes.]You get to choose the frontier AI model you prefer, including GPT 5.4, Claude, Gemini, and more. Switch mid-conversation to compare outputs. You are not locked in. You get the best of all the AI models in one place.Several other highly requested features are launching:API and MCP access: The community was clear about their needs here. Your knowledge can now be accessed from anywhere, whether you're building custom workflows or feeding it into your chatbot.Bulk actions for power users: With high content volume, you can now manage it all with just a few clicks. Generate summaries, tags, and connections for 100 pieces of content at a time.A UI overhaul: Everything you've seen in Recall from launch until now was homemade by our founders. We are finally getting closer to the intuitive, polished experience our users deserve. More to come.Since December, we have shipped a series of major upgrades:Our rich text block editor lets you capture your notes and ideas with all the bells and whistles you need, including tables, to-do lists, and more.Graph View 2.0 lets you interact with your knowledge visually, discover patterns, and find new connections.Quiz 2.0 reinforces learning and retention. It is not just about saving and interacting It references the exact point where something was mentioned and links to that video inside Recall, which you can play inside Recall. It doesn't break your flow.with content. It is about learning from it. This is about intentional knowledge building replacing mindless doomscrolling, with a personalized spaced repetition schedule. One of the best parts is that you can challenge friends publicly. Call out the folks dropping hot takes without receipts.We want to say a massive thank you to our Discord community. Your feedback, bug reports, and feature requests have shaped Recall 2.0. This is only the beginning, a step toward the vision we are relentlessly iterating on and delivering.
