| |||||||||||| 1 point by | I wanted the simplest possible AI meeting recorder that sees and hears your meetings, workflows etc. No cloud. No account. No subscription. Lumi a small CLI that uses the features already built into macOS. Everything stays on your Mac. Your recordings never leave your machine unless you choose to. It’s fully open source, so you can inspect exactly what it’s doing instead of trusting a black box. Simply run “lumi record start” once. If you’re looking for a low key, private alternative to cloud meeting recorders, check out lumi. I’d love your feedback. https://github.com/puremetricsai/lumi | ||||||||||| Applications are open till July 27. |
