talat

Realtime meeting notes that don’t leave your Mac

talat captures your microphone and system audio, transcribes both sides of every conversation in real time, and turns meetings into searchable, editable notes. It's powered entirely by your Mac's Neural Engine: your audio never leaves your machine. Choose custom LLM providers, write custom summarisation prompts, auto-export to Obsidian, push meeting data via webhooks, or query your history through an MCP server. It runs alongside Granola and other tools, so you can try it without switching.

Hey Product Hunt! I'm Nick, and I built talat because I wanted Granola's magic without my audio living on someone else's servers. I've been obsessed with this space for about a year. It started when I discovered that macOS could tap system audio without recording video: something I'd never seen an app do before Granola. That led me down a rabbit hole into Apple's Core Audio taps API, and I ended up building an open source Swift library to make it more accessible. Over the past year I've been piecing together the puzzle: system audio capture, mic recording, acoustic echo cancellation, automatic meeting detection, custom notification windows. Recently discovering FluidAudio, which runs real-time transcription on the Apple Neural Engine, was the piece that brought it all together. It's early days and plenty of stuff needs work; speaker diarisation is rough, local LLM summaries can be hit and miss. Personally, the more I use talat, the less I care about perfect summaries and the more I care about the transcript just being there, ready to search and refer back to whenever I happen to need it. talat is a one-time purchase, and if you buy during pre-release you get app updates forever. I'd love your feedback: what works, what doesn't, what you'd want next. And if you already use Granola or another meeting tool, talat runs happily alongside it. You don't have to choose.
