The Take

This nails the ugly, practical bits most toy projects skip: WASAPI loopback for Teams audio, a Silero VAD ring buffer to only save speech segments, and robust sleep/device-recovery with exponential backoff. It combines local whisper-rs transcription with optional Azure-based pipelines and scheduled ACS email summaries — a focused, pragmatic tool for people who actually need continuous meeting capture without sending everything to a SaaS.

Target Audience

Windows power users, knowledge workers, privacy-conscious teams, and developers who want local/offline transcription and automated summaries

Post Description

I hate missing key action items/brainstorming ideas at work and always regret not having recorded notes from meetings. Now I built an always on rust based tool that continuously transcribes and summarizes all meetings and sends previous day/weeks summary to my inbox.
