FAQ
Common questions about NoteCat
How do I use NoteCat?
Step 1: Invite NoteCat
Step 2: /record
Does it cost anything? Are there any usage limits?
NoteCat is free to use with optional premium tiers available. Visit our premium page for details on usage limits and premium tiers.
How long are recordings kept?
On the Free tier, a recording can be opened on the web for 7 days after it's recorded. After that, web access expires (including public share links) and the recording is scheduled for deletion. Recordings on Premium and Pro don't expire. Learn more
Are my recorded conversations private?
By default, recordings are visible on the web dashboard to any Discord member with access to the voice channel where the recording took place. You can set individual recordings to private or public to change this behavior.
Voice recordings are stored with encryption at rest. We don't train on your voice data. You can read more in our privacy policy.
How do I opt out of being recorded?
Run /opt-out in the Discord server and choose Opt Out from the private message NoteCat sends you. To allow future recordings again in that server, run /opt-out and choose Opt Back In.
The preference applies to both manual recordings and auto-recordings in that server. It affects future audio only and does not delete anything already captured.
Where can I view my recordings?
The web dashboard shows all recordings for your server with transcripts, audio player, and export options.
Can I export transcripts?
Yes — plain text, markdown, and OGG audio exports are available on every plan, directly from the dashboard. Premium adds PDF, JSON, and FLAC exports.
Who can see my recordings?
Depends on visibility setting: Channel (any Discord member with access to the voice channel where it was recorded), Private (only you), or Public (anyone with link).
Can I share recordings with people outside my server?
Yes, set visibility to "Public" to generate a shareable link. The person who started the recording or server admins (those with Manage Server permission in Discord) can change visibility.
