If I switch from Google Workspace to Apple Custom Domain Email, how disappointed am

talat - local, real-time meeting transcription and summarisation

Hi folks! This won't be the first 100% local, on-device meeting notes app you've seen recently, so I'll jump straight to what I think makes talat stand out. Timestamps in square brackets if the feature is in the video - if you want to skip to the app in action, skip to about 55s in. The recording experience Automatic call detection: when you join a Meet, Teams, or Zoom call, talat starts recording on its own [00m55s]
