AI leveled the playing field. Intelligence has been commoditized. We believe the edge is your knowledge. Recall 1.0 was a place to store that knowledge. Summarized, organized and connected. Recall 2.0 turns that knowledge into your edge. AI grounded in everything you've saved and written. "Condense my research, compare new studies, find the exact clip in my podcast." to “Pick a movie based on what I love” Talk to your knowledge, the internet, or both. You pick the model. API & MCP included.
What started as a simple Hacker News post from Paul in November 2022, "A tool to help you remember shit you are interested in," has, three years later, transformed from a summarizing tool into a platform that brings your knowledge to the forefront.
Recall 2.0 isn't just a feature launch. There has been a series of updates building to this point. What we've envisioned is a place where people intentionally engage with their saved content, learn from it, and bring that knowledge to the center.
Everyone is looking to AI for answers. But with Recall, you can prioritize your own knowledge first and foremost. Choose to chat with your saved insights and invite the internet in as a supplement. That's the priority order we believe it should follow.
This update lets you get answers that no other AI can provide, as it is grounded in the sources you intentionally chose to save and the notes you specifically took. Ask questions, and Recall pulls from your curated knowledge base.
"What did that sleep podcast say about melatonin timing? Find me the clip." [It pulls the exact moment where something was mentioned, and you can even play the clip inside Recall without breaking your flow.]
"Condense my last six months of research and notes into references with timestamps, page numbers, and quotes. Also see if any new studies are out." [Combine your personal knowledge and invite the internet in to see what is new and what you might be missing.]
"Pick a movie for tonight based on everything I've loved this year." [Just a fun one. Save all the movies you love to Recall, write your reviews, and then let Recall make a recommendation based on your own notes.]
You get to choose the frontier AI model you prefer, including GPT 5.4, Claude, Gemini, and more. Switch mid-conversation to compare outputs. You are not locked in. You get the best of all the AI models in one place.
Several other highly requested features are launching:
API and MCP access: The community was clear about their needs here. Your knowledge can now be accessed from anywhere, whether you're building custom workflows or feeding it into your chatbot.
Bulk actions for power users: With high content volume, you can now manage it all with just a few clicks. Generate summaries, tags, and connections for 100 pieces of content at a time.
A UI overhaul: Everything you've seen in Recall from launch until now was homemade by our founders. We are finally getting closer to the intuitive, polished experience our users deserve. More to come.
Since December, we have shipped a series of major upgrades:
Our rich text block editor lets you capture your notes and ideas with all the bells and whistles you need, including tables, to-do lists, and more.
Graph View 2.0 lets you interact with your knowledge visually, discover patterns, and find new connections.
Quiz 2.0 reinforces learning and retention. It is not just about saving and interacting It references the exact point where something was mentioned and links to that video inside Recall, which you can play inside Recall. It doesn't break your flow.with content. It is about learning from it. This is about intentional knowledge building replacing mindless doomscrolling, with a personalized spaced repetition schedule. One of the best parts is that you can challenge friends publicly. Call out the folks dropping hot takes without receipts.
We want to say a massive thank you to our Discord community. Your feedback, bug reports, and feature requests have shaped Recall 2.0. This is only the beginning, a step toward the vision we are relentlessly iterating on and delivering.
