Meet2Notes
meet2notes.eu
What it is
Meet2Notes records, transcribes, and analyzes conversations on a computer, with desktop capture for microphone or system audio and imports for common media files. It provides real-time transcription, a rule-driven Live AI Assistant for provisional transcript segments, and structured notes containing decisions and action items. Speaker separation, saved voice profiles, and recognition across meeting history support attribution. Questions across past meetings return answers with timestamped sources. Transcription, diarization, summarization, and embedding engines can be selected independently. Plugins, pipeline hooks, signed webhooks, and a local MCP server provide integration options, including connections to Claude Desktop, ChatGPT Desktop, Codex, and compatible clients. Audio, transcripts, embeddings, and local models remain in the workspace by default, with no telemetry by default. Meet2Notes is free, open source under the MIT license, and available on Linux, macOS, Windows, and the web.
