Frequently asked questions
Yes. ThreadRecap supports group chats. You can focus the analysis on a subset of participants (e.g. 2–5 people) to keep the summary relevant and avoid noise.
It depends on the goal you choose. Typically: a short overview, key decisions, action items (with owners and deadlines when mentioned), open questions, and notable quotes. Voice notes are transcribed and folded into the timeline before summarization.
Yes. We support the standard WhatsApp export: a .zip that contains a _chat.txt (or “WhatsApp Chat - Contact.txt”) file. You can also use a .txt-only export for text-only summaries. Voice notes inside the .zip are supported when you include media.
Parsing is instant in your browser. Analysis usually finishes in under a minute for typical chat lengths. Very long threads or many voice notes may take a bit longer.
ThreadRecap parses your export in the browser. Only the text (and audio you choose to send) is used for analysis. We don’t keep your raw chat. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Yes. Use “General Summary” for a bullet brief, “Meeting Recap” for minutes-style output with decisions and actions, or “Custom Prompt” to ask for a specific format (e.g. client update, personal recap).
