This is really cool! I've been using Obsidian more and more as a second brain and getting data in has consistently been the point of failure, so I've been wanting something just like this. Specifically something that runs locally and offline. Is the future goal of Hyprnote specifically meeting notes and leaning into features around meeting notes, or more general note taking and recall features?

At least for near future, we'll focusing on meeting notepad side of a thing. We actually have "export to Obsidian". I think you can pair Hyprnote nicely with Obsidian. Screenshot: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/5149b68d-486c-4bd... You need this plugin installed in Obsidian first: https://github.com/coddingtonbear/obsidian-local-rest-api Obsidian export code 1: https://github.com/fastrepl/hyprnote/blob/d0…

Thanks for the reply! I will try it out :)

I honestly don't care that much if Granola uploads my notes to some external service. Work conversations are not private anyways.

HOWEVER, I was extremely disturbed to find out that Granola was automatically making each of my notes folders public to the entire organization. Including 1:1s, you guessed it.

Yeah, really shook my trust in this product by a lot.

I'm always amazed at these relatively tiny projects that "launch" with a "customers" list that reads like they've spent 10 years doing hard outbound enterprise sales: Google, Intel, Apple, Amazon, Deloitte, IBM, Ford, Meta, Uber, Tencent, etc.

Yeah, IBM employee here, not speaking on behalf of the company, own opinions etc. The odds this is approved for employee use are essentially zero.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

I'm also interested in learning about why the API keys are required to build.

There are only 2 api keys that is required to build (POSTHOG, SENTRY), and also not required to build in dev, only in release build. I made it required to prevent accidentally ship app without any analytics/error tracking. (analytics can be opted out) For ex, https://github.com/fastrepl/hyprnote/blob/327ef376c1091d093c... EDIT: Prod -> release

You might want to reconsider ”no data ever leaves your machine" from the post :)

Given your target market, have you considered looking at Bugsink?[0] sentry compatible. still not local, but at least you won't have to additionally ask your customers to trust sentry/posthog.

Disclosure: that's me
