ChatGPT and other large language models can pull answers from almost anywhere. But what if your AI knew you? Your notes, your documents, your podcasts, and your research. That’s exactly what Recall AI promises—a personal research companion that actually remembers your trusted sources.
In this post, we’ll show you how Recall AI can be your personal assistant for organizing, summarizing, and chatting with all your content. From podcasts and PDFs to web pages and personal notes, Recall becomes your knowledge base. And yes—you can even talk to it just like ChatGPT.
Meet Recall AI: More Than a Web Clipper
At first glance, Recall may seem like just another browser extension. But don’t be fooled. It’s much more than a typical web clipper.
With Recall, you can save podcasts, videos, and web pages with one click. But instead of just bookmarking them, Recall gives you full transcripts, time-stamped summaries, and lets you tag and categorize everything automatically.
Imagine listening to a two-hour podcast. You may not have time to hear it all. With Recall, you can summarize the podcast in seconds and jump to the best parts using clickable timestamps. And yes, the transcript and summary get saved directly to your account.
Everything Lives in Your Notes
When you save something to Recall, it doesn’t just sit in a list of bookmarks. It becomes part of your digital brain.
You can edit tags, add your own notes, and even upload your own PDFs and documents. Have a favorite article or research paper? Just upload it. Want to save your bookmarks from Pocket or another tool? Recall supports that too.
Even better, you can create notes from scratch and use Recall as your primary note-taking app. Everything is searchable, taggable, and ready to be used in your personal chat assistant.
Chat With Your Own Memory
The real power of Recall comes from the chat feature. Unlike ChatGPT, which pulls answers from the web, Recall only uses your information.
For example, if you uploaded your StrengthsFinder results last month, you could ask Recall, "What are my top five strengths?" and it would tell you instantly—no guessing.
But it gets smarter. Let’s say you want to know how your strengths apply to personal finance. Recall will look at your StrengthsFinder doc and any finance-related articles, podcasts, or notes you’ve saved. Then it gives you personalized advice based only on your trusted content.
Use Tags to Focus Your AI
Want even more control? Use tags to limit the sources Recall uses in its responses.
For instance, you could ask, "How can I apply my strengths to my tech and app spending?" and then tag the conversation with your "Productivity" tag. Recall will only use the sources in that category to answer.
This ensures you’re getting hyper-relevant responses from your curated information—not generic advice from the internet.
Add Any Type of Content
You’re not limited to just podcasts or articles. With Recall, you can:
- Paste URLs from YouTube, blogs, or news sites
- Upload PDFs and Word docs
- Import bookmarks from other services
- Write and save your own notes
No matter where the information comes from, Recall treats it like part of your brain. And because everything is time-stamped, transcribed, and categorized, you never lose track.
Make Better Decisions With Personalized Insights
Let’s go back to our earlier example. You asked Recall how your strengths apply to your tech habits. It answered with real references—from podcasts, articles, and videos you saved. That’s not just smart. That’s powerful.
You can apply this approach to any topic:
- Want to improve your productivity? Save your favorite tools and strategies, then ask Recall how to improve your daily workflow.
- Trying to learn a new skill? Save tutorials and guides, then chat with Recall about what to study next.
- Planning a big purchase? Upload comparison articles and reviews, then ask Recall which option fits your needs best.
Everything is rooted in what you trust.
Use It Like ChatGPT—But With Facts
One of the biggest problems with tools like ChatGPT and Gemini is that they sometimes hallucinate—meaning they make things up. Recall fixes that by pulling only from your saved sources.
When you ask it a question, it won’t make up fake information. It will reference the exact document, podcast, or video where it found the answer.
That makes Recall perfect for anyone who wants clarity, accuracy, and trust in their answers.
