02Could AI build it for you?
The core job: Record or import supported meetings, transcribe them locally, identify speakers with manual correction, generate structured notes and summaries, and track recurring themes.
What a working version needs:
- desktop microphone access
- whisper.cpp model files
- optional OpenAI or Anthropic API key
- local storage

03What you'd give up
- auto-join, integrations, team analytics, and long-running capture reliability
- calendar auto-join
- reliable speaker diarization
- mobile capture
- team search and sharing
People still pay for MeetGeek because a meeting tool must capture every call without surprising anyone, then make the result searchable and shareable across a team. The recurring cost buys audio permissions, model updates, calendar APIs, storage, speaker correction, and sync, not just the visible interface.
