Do you intend to reach feature parity with something like MacWhisper? I'd love to switch to something open source, but automated meeting detection, push to transcribe (with custom rewrite actions) are two features I've learned to love, beside basic transcript. I also enjoy the automatic transcription from an audio, video or a even a YouTube link.
But because MacWhisper does not store transcripts or do much with them (other than giving you export options), there are some missed opportunities: I'd love to be able to add project tags to transcripts, so that any new transcript is summarized with the context of all previous transcript summaries that share the same tag. Thinking about it maybe I should build a Logseq extension to do that myself as I store all my meeting summaries there anyway.
Speaker detection is not great in MacWhisper (at least in my context where I work mostly with non native English speakers), so that would be a good differentiation too.
definitely planning to catch up to other tools - we ship FAST!
automated meeting detection - working on this. push to transcribe - want to understand more about this. (could we talk more over at our discord? https://hyprnote.com/discord)
if you're using logseq, we'd love to build an integration for you.
finally, speaker identification is a big challenge for us too.
so many things to do - so exciting!
> finally, speaker identification is a big challenge for us too.
But your home page makes it looks like you already have it. I just tried it in a 30-minute meeting with 20 people and it put the entire conversation under a single speaker, in a single paragraph.
I acknowledge that it's outdated. When we were writing the landing page, we thought we could ship the first version of speaker diarization/identification within a few days.
However, due to various challenges and priority changes, we haven't been able to do so yet. We'll update the landing page soon.
