🛠 AI Assist: Meeting notes without the cloud or bots

This tool for Google Meet and Zoom operates on a BYOK model, using your own API keys (Anthropic, OpenAI Whisper). The program runs locally on macOS and Linux, without uploading audio to third-party servers.

🌍 The BYOK model and local processing lower the barriers to corporate AI implementation, bypassing security restrictions on the use of third-party bots and cloud data uploads.

👤 You maintain full control over meeting privacy and costs: pay API providers directly based on usage, avoiding unnecessary subscription markups.
