Congrats on the launch. I never understood why an AI meeting notetaker needed sota LLMs and subscriptions (talking about literally all the other notetakers) - thanks for making it local first. I use a locally patched up whisperx + qwen3:1.7 + nomic embed (ofcourse with a swift script that picks up the audio buffer from microphone) and it works just fine. Rarely i create next steps / sop from the transcript - i use ge…

Can you share the Swift script? I was thinking of doing something similar but was banging my head against the audio side of macOS.

What model? All the realtime transcription services I've seen are Whisper wrappers or custom closed source ones.

It's custom model. (whisper variant)

Makes sense. How well do you expect Hyprnote to work on mobile? I found that phones in general are still pretty weak at AI inference on-device still.

I think it will work pretty well considering how rapid it moves. (See gemma3n, Cactus etc)

Super neat! You’ve made an impressive amount of cool specialized crates - have you considered making them generally usable to the wider community and licensing them under LGPL/MIT instead of GPL?

we def considered it. our line of thinking is start with more restrictive license, and later switch to MIT or something once we figure things out :)

Since this isn't available yet on Windows, what would be the glue & duct tape alternative? Record audio and dump it in chatGPT? Or do you need to create some kind of automation with n8n / Zapier? I don't have that many meetings but it could be nice to have
