MCP Server

Ships with a Model Context Protocol server. Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Claude Code can search, read, and enrich your meetings as tools.

Plain Markdown

Transcripts saved as .md files with YAML frontmatter. No proprietary formats. Any agent can read them directly.

Local-First

Everything on-device. On-device transcription via Apple Speech. Agents connect locally via stdio. No cloud required.
