Summit: AI Notetaker 1.10 Huge Update! 🙌

New Features

• Connect Summit to Claude Code and other AI tools — your notes, transcripts and search are now available to external assistants, with a secure sign-in flow and connection status shown in Settings.

• Live Queries: save a chat as a standing question over your notes and get recurring recaps. Pick the scope right in the editor, and see them front and centre on Home.

• Chat now uses tools by default, so it can search, open and cross-reference your notes while answering. It shows what it’s doing as it works, and every answer links back to the sources it used. Mention a document with @ to pull it into the conversation.

• Tiered local chat: Summit picks a fast local model for everyday questions and automatically steps up to a more capable one for harder reasoning. Configurable in Settings.

• Always-on-top meeting overlay — a compact pill that stays visible during calls, remembers where you left it, and includes an interactive meeting prep tab.

• Split transcript blocks and reassign speakers for part of a conversation, and copy the full transcript from the transcript menu.

• App-wide back and forward navigation history.

• Added OpenRouter as a cloud AI provider.

• It is now possible to use NAS or any external drive as a storage folder.

Improvements

• Calendar: skip recording an entire recurring series with one setting, set a default folder per series, start recordings inline from the Upcoming Meetings widget, and roll unanswered invitations into the tentative auto-record option.

• Recordings started from a calendar invite or by hand now stop automatically when the meeting ends, including Google Meet.

• Recordings are written to local storage first and synced forward to your storage folder afterwards, so a slow or network drive never slows down a recording. Your database and media can now live in separate locations.

• Search moved from inline filter chips to a dedicated advanced search sheet — faster, less cluttered, and easier to filter by people, tags and dates.

• Document list gets Default, Comfortable and Compact view modes, day grouping, and duration in the subtitle.

• Model recommendations are now more conservative and tell you plainly when a model is too large for your Mac.

• AI summaries render as a styled block with better formatting.

• Cloud provider API keys are now stored in the macOS Keychain.

Bug Fixes

• Summit warns you if the microphone records no audio, or if the selected microphone is also your system output device.

• Fixed live transcription splitting speech bubbles incorrectly mid-utterance.

• Fixed newly identified speakers missing from the naming wizard, and stale speaker entries lingering after cleanup.

• Parent folder counts now include documents in subfolders.

• Fixed the upgrade sheet opening in the wrong window.

• Fixed storage migration pulling in unrelated files, and added a warning when the chosen .

• Fixed a search field that collapsed to zero width, and lost trailing spaces while typing.

• Fixed calendar meeting rows showing recordings from previous occurrences.

• Fixed several layout issues: bookmark button text wrapping, cramped floating record prompt, chat rename dialog, and truncated template names.

• Errors during summarization are now surfaced instead of failing silently, and interrupter leave corrupt files behind.
