Oats
Oats is an open source meeting notes app that records meetings directly on your computer without sending a bot into the call. It captures audio locally, then turns the conversation into a structured summary, action items with owners, a meeting quality score, and a searchable transcript based on what was actually said. Oats works across Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, phone calls, and in-person conversations; any audio your computer can hear can become notes. Users can run recording and AI notes entirely on-device with a local model to keep audio private, or connect an Ariso account for richer AI features. Every recorded meeting lands in a searchable library, making it possible to ask questions across meeting history and retrieve past decisions or commitments. Action items are collected in a dedicated Todos view instead of remaining buried in notes, and completing an item in the meeting notes can close it automatically.

Speakwise
Speakwise is an AI voice recorder, voice-to-text transcription app, and note taker for iPhone built for in-person meetings and conversations. With one tap, users can record a meeting directly through the iPhone microphone without a laptop, Zoom, Teams, calendar invite, or bot joining the call. Speakwise converts the recording into a searchable transcript, automatically labels speakers with diarization, and generates a clean AI summary with key points, decisions, and action items. It supports more than 100 languages with automatic detection and dialect recognition, including regional speech that other note takers may struggle with. Recording works offline, so conversations can be captured on planes, job sites, secure rooms, and other places without Wi-Fi, then synced and processed when a connection returns. AirPods controls let users start, pause, and stop recording hands-free, while the iPhone Action Button can launch recording instantly on supported devices.
