2.2.1

​
Enhancements

  • Easier profile editing. Collapsible sections keep transcription, enhancement, and auto-activation settings organized, with more compact Polish controls.
  • Recognizable app profiles. App-specific profiles and activation rules now display application names and icons.
  • Safer text insertion. Improved handling of focus changes when inserting dictation or replacing text with Polish.

​
Bug fixes

  • Fixed previous clipboard contents not being restored after some successful Polish replacements.

​
2.2.0

​
New features

  • Online research with CLI tools. When you use Codex, Claude Code, or Antigravity for meeting AI, Ask Stenox and generated insights can search online, with source links and clearly labeled web context. Online search is available only through these CLI tools; local models do not browse the web.
  • Polish with your subscription. Choose Codex, Claude Code, or Antigravity for optional dictation polishing, with separate model and reasoning preferences from meeting insights.

​
Enhancements

  • Exclude unwanted speech from insight generation. Exclude a speaker or an individual passage from insights, answers, and AI notes while keeping the transcript and recording. Restore exclusions at any time.
  • Faster local search. Improved indexing and retrieval reduce delays and timeouts when searching larger collections of dictations and meeting notes.
  • More flexible title matching. Find saved meetings with variations in spacing or punctuation, with typo recovery for otherwise empty keyword searches.
  • Clearer app layouts. Refined Settings, Vocabulary, and activity views, with more compact saved-meeting rows and search controls.
  • Freshened up the logo.

​
Bug fixes

  • Fixed long meeting titles and toolbar controls being clipped when Ask Stenox is open.
  • Fixed Polish model selections being replaced when switching profiles or accounts, or switching between local and subscription providers.

​
2.1.0

​
New features

  • Search your saved work. Find dictations and meeting notes by words, phrases, or meaning. Filter by date, app, or content type and open the matching passage. Search runs locally, with an optional multilingual model.
  • Remember vocabulary corrections. Save corrections to names and unfamiliar terms directly from supported text fields. Apply them to one app or across all apps, and manage them in Vocabulary.
  • Replay meeting recordings. Keep audio locally for new Notetaker sessions, jump to transcript timestamps, adjust playback speed, and follow the conversation. Remove recordings without deleting transcripts or notes.

​
Enhancements

  • Easier meeting-note editing. Edit session notes directly, review updated AI drafts while preserving your edits, and export personal notes as Markdown.
  • Better Notetaker navigation. Read earlier passages without being pulled back to the latest speech. Saved answers now show confirmation, and failed questions can be retried.
  • More compact dictation controls. A smaller completion popup keeps Polish, Copy, and Undo within reach.
  • Clearer license settings. See how many Macs are active on your license, with simpler activation and removal controls.

​
Bug fixes

  • Fixed file transcription being interrupted when switching pages, preserving selected files, settings, and results.
  • Fixed question drafts being lost when navigating away from Ask.
  • Fixed duplicate pasting in Chrome and insertion issues caused by focus changes.
  • Fixed canceled insertion operations unexpectedly restoring focus.
  • Corrected completion-popup dismissal timing and Polish controls that did not reflect current settings.
  • Fixed History losing the distinction between original recognition and cleaned text in some dictation paths.
  • Improved recovery of buffered meeting speech after capture interruptions and handling of unsaved work before quitting.
  • Fixed permission checks disrupting recording shortcuts and cancellation.
