Hello, I am a manager at a tech firm. Came across your product, and feeling this could be a thing I was looking for these days - recently got banned of some notetakers. Impressive demo video btw! First of all I wanna try this on my personal device. How can I implement your product in my devices? I also want to discuss some points (on-device, self-hosting, open-source, etc.) to persuade our compliance team, as well

would love to support you! you can just download it from our website if you're using a mac.

Thanks for the prompt response.

How about the Window(more of native Window OS than VM or WSL) case? What's your plan for Window version launch and support?

I just tried to build on Linux and it keeps panicking because it requires dozen(s) of API keys. I was not expecting that from local first software.

That is not actually required. You can even set empty key for that. Also Linux issue pointer: https://github.com/fastrepl/hyprnote/issues/67#issuecomment-...

I get an "EmptyToken" error if I leave keys like AXIOM_TOKEN empty. I'm sure I can remove the requirements in code, but it's just that this wasn't expected from reading the project description.

Anyway, thanks for your work and good luck!

I started building something like this for myself and though it would be useful. I have a decent mac only working working but what you have built is great.

This one is completely open source and local, no api calls required at all. Quality can better with newer models which has to be worked on.

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.

This one is especially bad because I doubt all of those companies allow employees to install unapproved software that records meetings and uses so many 3rd party APIs The social proof logo list is an old scheme on the growth hacking checklist. There was a time when it was supposed to mean the company had purchased the software. Now it just means they knew someone who worked at those companies who said they’d check it…

Wow, I had no idea that the bar was that low. That's ridiculous. I think I'll follow your approach from now on.

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 [0] https://www.bugsink.com/

Bugsink looks interesting. Will take a look.
