Features
Zero data retention meeting notes and summaries
Transcript.audio writes your summary, decisions and action items either with an AI model on your computer or with a cloud model under zero data retention. Either way, nothing is kept by the AI provider.
Notes and summaries: both modes side by side
Privacy optimised mode
Written by an AI model running on your computer.
Standard mode
The transcript is sent to our AI service, summarised by an AI provider under zero data retention, then discarded.
This is one row of the full comparison. See what runs where in each mode.
How it works
In privacy optimised mode an AI model running on your computer writes the notes from the transcript. Nothing leaves your computer.
In standard mode the transcript is sent to our AI service, summarised by an AI provider under zero data retention, then discarded.
The finished notes are saved on your computer in both modes. Nothing is stored by us.
Who it is for
- Professionals who want AI summaries without their conversations being kept or used by an AI provider.
- Teams that need written notes and action items from every meeting.
- Anyone comparing AI note takers on how they handle data.

Frequently asked questions
What does zero data retention mean here?
In standard mode the AI provider processes your transcript to write the notes and does not retain it. The transcript is then discarded, and nothing is stored by us.
Can notes be written without the cloud?
Yes. In privacy optimised mode notes are written by an AI model running on your computer. Note quality depends on the model that runs on your machine.
Where are my notes saved?
Saved on your computer. Nothing is stored by us.
