Onsite, a Meeting Recorder for Your Own Computer
An offline meeting transcription app for macOS and Windows that records with permission and saves speaker-labeled Markdown files locally.
Field notes
The app watches for supported calls from the menu bar, asks whether to record, and writes the result to Documents/Meetings as plain Markdown. Its stated local-processing model includes speaker separation and a separate keyboard shortcut for dictation in any app. The page gives operational figures rather than only privacy language: a 596 MB first-run model download, roughly seven minutes for a 60-minute meeting on a five-core laptop, and under 80 MB of idle memory.
