dataTranscription models, recordings, transcripts and application data stay on the local machine; the Community Edition has no cloud sync
setupWindows and Apple-silicon macOS install cleanly but still need audio permissions and model downloads; Linux requires Rust/Node source-build tooling, and several advanced summary/export/diarization workflows are Pro-only

A local meeting recorder that writes the transcript and summary without inviting a bot or your legal department.
the catchThe Community Edition records and summarizes locally, but Granola's refined note editor, collaboration and automatic context are stronger, while advanced templates, exports and diarization sit in Meetily Pro.
the verdict →all Granola alternatives →
Local live transcription, imported recordings and summaries for Mac and Windows.
the catchIt keeps meetings local but is not a full Notta-style web/mobile workspace; collaboration, broad import automation, translation workflow and several advanced outputs are weaker or Pro-only.
the verdict →all Notta alternatives →
