About
Overview
Clearminutes records and transcribes meetings entirely on your machine. No meeting bot joins your call and no audio is ever uploaded: transcription runs locally with Whisper (Metal/CUDA/Vulkan) and summaries run on a built-in Gemma model, no API keys needed.
Record system audio and microphone together with RMS-based ducking and VAD filtering for clean recordings and accurate transcripts. Everything is stored in a local SQLite database you can open yourself.
The free tier includes full transcription, summaries and meeting history with no time limits. Pro adds speaker identification, PDF export and TickTick integration. An iPhone app is live on the App Store: background recording from the Lock Screen, Apple Watch controls, Home Screen widgets, and peer-to-peer transfer of recordings to the desktop app.

Clearminutes in a Nutshell
Who is it for?
Knowledge workers and small teams who need private, local-first meeting notes without cloud reliance
Problem
Many teams struggle with keeping accurate meeting records while worrying about privacy and data leakage. Cloud-based transcription can introduce latency, exposure of sensitive information, or complex setup, leaving users with tangled workflows and inconsistent notes.
Solution
Clearminutes transcribes and summarizes meetings entirely on your machine, using local Whisper for transcription and a built-in Gemma model for summaries. It stores everything in a local SQLite database with no API keys or cloud uploads, and offers a mobile app for on-device control and offline use.
What makes it unique
It runs all transcription locally without sending audio to the cloud and provides a complete offline workflow from recording to searchable notes. It combines local audio processing with private on-device AI summaries and a native iPhone app that supports background recording, widgets, and peer-to-peer transfers, all without relying on external services.

I kept hitting the same trade-off: every AI notetaker worked by shipping my meeting audio to someone else's servers. I wanted notes that work with the internet off, so Clearminutes was built around on-device transcription and local storage from day one. Getting there without a cloud pipeline shaped almost every design decision, from the audio pipeline to how model weights ship with the app.
