A vault is just a folder
You pick a folder and Wrengle writes notes into it as ordinary files. There is no hosted workspace holding your work and no export step to get it back.
Your own machine
Meeting notes that live in a folder you own
Most meeting tools keep your notes on their servers and give you a login to visit them. Wrengle writes them to a folder on your computer as ordinary files. You can open them in any editor, back them up however you already back things up, and read them in ten years without asking anyone's permission.
What owning your notes actually means
Not a promise that your data is safe with us. An arrangement where your notes were never with us in the first place.
Available
It works with no account
Download it and start. An optional account holds identity and profile plus an AI credit balance and usage ledger, but notes stay local and nothing about writing or reading them requires one.
Search runs on your machine
The index is built and queried locally, so searching your own notes does not send them anywhere to be searched.
Your backup is the folder
Whatever already backs up your machine already backs up your notes. There is no separate export, and no account to lose access to.
What that costs you
Keep an independent backup. Optional sync is off by default and keeps a vault’s notes, charts, whiteboards, whiteboard images, and folder structure the same on your own computers; other attachments and a web editor are not part of it. v0.0.18 and later require an Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 13.4 or later.
You do not need an account for any of this. Wrengle is free while it is in beta, and downloading it or writing a note never asks you to sign up. An optional account uses email or Google and can hold an AI credit balance and usage ledger. Signing in alone does not upload notes; turning on optional sync between your own computers stores note and chart content on Wrengle’s sync service, where Wrengle can technically read it to operate the service.
If those notes started as a recorded meeting, see how Wrengle handles audio that cannot go to a cloud notetaker, and how transcription itself decides between your machine and a cloud provider.
Try it on your next call.
Free while in beta, and nothing to sign up for. Download it, point it at a folder, and record a meeting — you will know within one call whether it is for you.
