Getting Started

The complete workflow:

  1. Record your thoughts, a conversation, or a seminar.

  2. Save the recording + cover

  3. Listen and read the transcript

  4. Copy the text and then email or send as an .onda file to include the audio recording

Recall is different from search.

Recall is remembering a place we’ve been before. We get back there, recognizing patterns and relationships, how things fit together a certain way.

Replay leverages our ability to recognize word associations to help us find things faster with less effort. (See About)
