- For
- Mac users who want local call transcripts or voice dictation
- Worth noticing
- Call detection is based on microphone use, not a supported-app list; individual apps can be excluded from automatic recording.
Field notes
The page describes call detection through microphone activity, including calls in browser-based Google Meet, rather than through a fixed list of supported services. It says meeting audio is saved as separate microphone and system tracks, with a timestamped transcript; the listed audio format is lossless ALAC at 24-bit. The download is labeled v0.1 alpha, so the project presents itself as an early build for testers.
