Open-source AI meeting notes for Mac. Records mic + system audio with no bot, transcribes on-device or via OpenAI / Deepgram / Groq, identifies speakers offline, and writes summaries that fuse your notes with the transcript. Ask your notes and get cited answers. Tauri 2 + Rust + Swift.
Why this job: topics: apple-silicon, local-llm
What it does
- Local Whisper. runs entirely on your Mac via Apple Silicon's GPU. Free after a one-time download. Multiple multilingual models plus a Norwegian-tuned model (NB Whisper Large from Nasjonalbiblioteket).
- OpenAI. whisper-1, gpt-4o-transcribe, gpt-4o-mini-transcribe, gpt-4o-transcribe-diarize.
- Deepgram. Nova-3 / Nova-2, native diarization, very strong on conversational English.
- Groq. whisper-large-v3-turbo at OpenAI-compatible endpoints — same Whisper quality, ~10× cheaper and faster than OpenAI's hosted Whisper.
- Nemotron 3. the default. NVIDIA's end-to-end model tells up to 8 speakers apart and counts them itself.
