Screen Capture & Guided Tours · included with Pro, rolling out after the core launch
Record the workflow once. Let Claude write the guide.
Dicta can capture your screen, a separate audio track, and every click and keystroke with exact timestamps, all at once, all on your Mac. The result is a single markdown timeline of exactly what happened, the input Claude uses to turn a recorded workflow into a guided tour or a step-by-step doc.
Announced, not shipped yet. Included with Pro once it ships, at no extra cost, with a switch a Team admin can control.
Your call, every time
Four capture modes, from nothing to everything
Pick a mode from the menu bar, or per meeting. Each mode adds one more layer on top of the last, so you choose exactly how much gets captured.
Off
No capture at all. Dictation and meetings behave exactly as they do today.
Transcribe
Just the words. Speech becomes text; nothing else is recorded or kept.
Audio + Transcribe
Keeps the recording next to the transcript, so you can play a moment back later.
Screen + Audio + Transcribe
Adds a screen recording (main display by default, any display you pick) and a click-and-keystroke log to the audio and transcript.
Shown, not told
From a recording to a guided tour
Every click and keystroke lands on the timeline with its exact timestamp, next to the screenshot it triggered if you turned those on. Claude reads that timeline and writes the steps. The names and steps below are illustrative demo content, not a real recording.

What it captures
Everything a guided tour needs, on one timeline
Every click and keystroke, exactly timed
While Screen + Audio + Transcribe is running, Dicta logs every mouse click and keystroke alongside the exact timestamp it happened, next to the screen recording, the separate audio file and the transcript, so the whole session lines up on one timeline.
Optional screenshots, right where you clicked
Turn on per-click screenshots and Dicta captures a still at the moment of each click, dropped into the same markdown timeline next to the action that triggered it.
One markdown file, ready for Claude
The screen recording, the audio, the transcript and the click-and-keystroke log combine into a single markdown timeline of the whole session, the input Claude uses to write a guided tour or a step-by-step doc from what you actually did, not from a description of it.
Exports to Showcase
The same timeline exports to Showcase, so a recorded workflow can become a shareable guide or story without redoing the work by hand.
One place for every recording
Dictations and meetings, in the same searchable list
A single unified viewer shows every dictation and every meeting recording together, filterable and tagged, so you are never hunting between two separate histories to find the session you need.
Local, always
Your screen never leaves your Mac to become a guide
The cloud recorders that do this today, tools like Fathom or Loom, work by uploading your screen to their servers. Dicta does not: the screen recording, the separate audio file, the click-and-keystroke log, the transcript and the markdown timeline built from them are all created and stored on the Mac doing the recording. There is no cloud mode to opt out of, because there is no cloud step at all.
Even mid-recording
Privacy Mode covers screen capture too
The same Privacy Mode that hides your dictation history and meeting transcripts the instant you share your screen applies while a screen capture is running: sensitive panes get the same placeholder treatment, on the same reflex, with nothing extra to configure.

Pro, with a switch a Team admin controls
Screen Capture & Guided Tours is a Pro feature, included at no extra cost once it ships. On a Team plan, an admin can enable or restrict it centrally across every seat, the same feature-control model already planned for the rest of Team, rather than leaving it to each person to turn on.
