Meetily Offers Free AI Meeting Transcription on Windows and macOS, Undercutting $10-$20 Cloud Rivals
2 articles · Updated · WIRED · Aug 9
Summary
Meetily packages open-source AI into a free Windows and macOS app that records meetings, generates near-real-time transcripts, and produces customizable summaries without sending audio to the cloud.
Local microphone and system-audio capture lets it work across Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and other services, while a beta tool also transcribes previously recorded audio or video files.
The free community version is downloadable from GitHub, while a $10-a-month Pro tier exists; that undercuts many meeting assistants that typically cost $10 to $20 monthly.
Speaker labeling is missing in the free version, a major limitation for some users, though alternatives such as noScribe, Anarlog and Quill offer different trade-offs in setup, features or account requirements.
