Hi Product Hunt, I’m Ivan, the maker of Stenograf. I built Stenograf because I wanted a private memory of my conversations: a way to find decisions, revisit commitments, and prepare for the next call while keeping the conversation on my computer. It captures your microphone and system audio without a bot joining the call. Transcription, summaries, and search run on your computer, and your recordings and complete transcripts stay local. You can identify follow-ups, prepare for an upcoming meeting with an overview of previous calls, and ask questions across saved conversations. Answers include cited transcript passages, so you can check the wording and context behind them. You can try Stenograf https://soniqo.audio/stenograf with a free trial, then it’s $12/month. I’d love to hear what you’d want in a pre-call overview, and whether the cited passages give you enough context to check an answer. Thanks for trying it!

Comment highlights

Congrats on the launch! Love a local tool, Wich languages does support? Good luck :)!

Congrats on the launch!! 🥳🥳🥳 Does Stenograf support speaker diarization? And can it be plugged into any meeting tool (e.g.: Jitsi / Big Blue Button as well)?

Congrats on the launch, Ivan! Bots joining the call is the real pain. Having "an offline" is a real change, no more approvals for agents "from outside the company" before their owners even join the meeting

Congrats on the launch, Ivan! No meeting bot joining the call is a big deal: half the time the bot itself makes people awkward. And answers that point to the exact transcript passage ("Thursday or Friday?") are what make me trust AI notes at all. Curious about the local side: how long does a one-hour call take to transcribe on a normal laptop without a GPU? Rooting for you today 🚀

Looks cool, is private note takimg close with quality to it being done using state of art models?

love the idea, it's annoying to hit API limits with existing tools. sometimes my agent does need to pull a lot of transcripts...

tech question: what are the system requirements to run the transcriber model? i.e. will my computer run ok during a call?

Congrats !! Does it still work if people switch between languages during the same meeting?

This is wonderful. I always feel weird to see as many bots as human participants on a call. And to top it, every bot sends a summary to everyone in the call. Hope more folks start using this.

OMG, yes, please...enough of the bots already :) something local, private and easily accessible seems like a way to go. Good luck guys.

Congrats on the launch! Is it possible to use a custom provider for transcription and summary?

Congratulations on the launch Ivan,

How are you guys handling transcription for regional languages? Cause that’s something notetakers still struggle with I believe.

Congrats on the launch! Running everything on-device without a bot joining the call is exactly what I need. 🙌

Hi Product Hunt, I’m Viktor, CTO.

We’re building a meeting assistant that captures microphone and system audio directly and runs speech recognition and language models on your computer. You can use it with your regular meeting app, then work with the transcript, summary and saved conversations in one place.

I’d like to hear what you’d find useful in your own work, particularly when preparing for your next meeting or picking up a project again.
