Your recording stats on the web
Updated 16 Aug 2026 · Web
The web app keeps running statistics about your recording habits on a page titled Performance — "Track how you use Canto over time." It's a web-only view at /analytics, opened from your home screen via Track my performance.
What stats does the page show?
A set of stat cards computed from your library:
| Card | What it measures |
|---|---|
| Total recorded | All recorded time, across every recording you own |
| Words transcribed | Total words in your transcripts (with a speaking-pace estimate) |
| Day streak | Consecutive days with at least one recording |
| Spaces created | Folders you've made |
| Spaces shared | Folders you've shared with others |
| Notes in spaces | How much of your library is filed into Spaces |
| Average length | Mean recording duration |
| Longest recording | Your single longest session |
| Busiest day | The day you recorded the most |
Below the cards, a Recording activity chart shows your recent activity week by week, so trends — a quiet fortnight, a conference week — are visible at a glance.
Where do the numbers come from?
Everything is computed from the recordings in your account: recording metadata for durations and dates, transcripts for word counts, and your folders for the Spaces cards. There's nothing to enable and no separate tracking involved — deleting a recording removes its contribution to the stats.
Can anyone else see my stats?
No. The page is personal: sharing recordings or Spaces never exposes your Performance page, streaks, or totals to anyone. Organisation admins don't get a version of this page for members either.
How is this different from Insights?
Insights is one day at a time — a 24-hour dial showing when each recording happened. Performance is the aggregate view — how much, how often, and how it's trending. Day-shaped questions go to Insights; habit-shaped questions come here.
FAQ
Is this available on iOS or Android?
No — like Insights, it's one of the web's extras. Your data is the same everywhere, so nothing is lost by checking it on the web; see What's different on iOS, Android, and the web?
Why did my day streak reset?
The streak counts consecutive days with at least one recording in your library. A day without a recording ends it — there's no grace period or streak freeze.
Do imported or notetaker recordings count?
Yes. Anything in your library counts toward the totals: recordings made on any device, imported audio, and meetings the notetaker captured for you.
