What it is

Real sessions, not demos.

LansPilot turns Android phones into synced cameras you control from a Windows computer, with proper audio, a teleprompter, live switching, transcription and a clean hand-off to your editor. The pilot is where it meets real rooms.

01

You record what you would record anyway

Your podcast, your lesson, your session. We learn the most from a normal working day.

02

A person on the other end

David, who builds LansPilot, runs the setup call and the weekly check-ins himself.

03

What you tell us changes what ships

Bugs you report are fixed first. Patterns across participants decide what we build next.

Who it is for

Five kinds of rooms.

Creators

Talking to camera, alone, often with a script.

One or two phones
Podcasters

Two people in one room, a microphone each.

Two phones, audio interface
Interviewers

A host and a guest, two angles, one clean edit.

Two phones
Musicians

A performance or a lesson, where audio matters most.

Phones plus your interface
Pro studios

Several sessions a week and an editor waiting.

Two phones and more
The deal

What you get, and what we ask.

You get

  • The full product for the length of the pilot: every feature, on your computer.
  • Two phones recorded in sync. Three or four phones are a Beta that depends on your computer, and testing it is welcome.
  • A 30-minute setup call, and help when something breaks.
  • Your bugs looked at first, and a direct line to the person who fixes them.
  • After the pilot, 50% off for testers who gave feedback: the first year of Pro yearly ($34.50) or Pro one-time ($64.50).

We ask

  • A 30-minute setup call at the start.
  • At least one real recording a week, the kind you would make anyway.
  • Two minutes after each one, to log how it went.
  • A 15-minute check-in each week, and a bug report when something breaks.
  • A few short surveys, and a 20-minute call at the end.

What you need

Requirements.

ComputerWindows 10 or 11, 64-bit

16 GB of memory and 50 GB free are recommended for transcription and long takes.

PhonesAndroid 10 or later

One phone works. Two phones give you a synced second angle. Three or four: Beta, depends on your computer.

ConnectionThe same Wi-Fi network, or USB

Phones and computer on one local network, or a USB cable for each phone.

Not yetMac and iPhone

They come after the pilot. For now it is Windows and Android only.

Privacy

Your footage stays on your computer.

Recording, transcription and export run on your machine. We never receive your video or audio.

  • We keep what you type in the pilot portal: your application, session logs, bug reports and surveys.
  • If you switch it on, the app’s usage log: dates, counts and settings such as how many phones a take used. No file names, no titles, no transcripts. You can read the file before you send it.
  • The pilot pages add no trackers of their own. The site’s optional analytics follow your cookie choice.
  • You can download everything we hold about you, change what you share, or ask us to delete it, from your portal at any time.
  • We do not sell or share pilot data. We quote your feedback only if you say we may.
Questions
Is the pilot free?

Yes. You get the full product for the length of the pilot at no cost, and no card is asked for.

What happens when it ends?

LansPilot Free keeps working. Testers who gave feedback get 50% off: the first year of Pro yearly ($34.50) or Pro one-time ($64.50).

Do I need two phones?

No. One phone is enough for creators and lessons. Podcasts and interviews get the most from two synced phones.

Can I use three or four phones?

Three or four phones are a Beta that depends on your computer: the app tells you how many it is comfortable with. If you can test it, tell us how it went.

Can I use a Mac or an iPhone?

Not in this pilot. Windows 10/11 and Android 10+ only, for now.

Does anything I record leave my computer?

No. Video, audio and transcripts stay on your machine. Sharing a transcript for accuracy testing is a separate, optional choice, off by default.

What if something breaks?

That is the point of a pilot. Report it from the portal with the steps, and we look at it first. Nothing you record should ever be lost; if it is, tell us right away.

Can I leave?

Any time, from "Your data" in the portal. You can also ask us to delete everything.
