Meetings & transcription
What it does
Captures meeting audio, transcribes it and produces a summary, with the whole pipeline able to run inside your own environment so meeting content need not be handed to a vendor. For the summarising step you can pick Ollama running locally, or Claude, Groq, OpenRouter or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint - the local option keeps everything in-house. Available for macOS, Windows and Linux. A paid PRO tier exists alongside the open-source version.
Summary based on the project's own description. The Japanese page has a fuller beginner guide: setup difficulty, what to prepare, and a step-by-step start.
