Hey Hunters! π I built LocalWhisper cause I wanted a completely offline stack to process my meeting audio notes and text transcripts without worrying about data privacy or expensive recurring cloud subscription fees. It runs 100% locally on your Mac and leverages your existing Ollama setup using live streaming to output structured business insights Itβs live on itch.io under a 'Pay What You Want' model. Iβd love to get your feedback and know what features you want to see in the next update!

Hey Product Hunt! π
Iβm the maker behind LocalWhisper Business Brief Generator.
If you use local Whisper models (via Ollama, MacWhisper, or CLI), you know the pain: the audio transcription is great, but the actual text output is a messy wall of "uhs", self-corrections, lost action items, and unstructured numbers. Reading through a 30-minute transcript to find actual decisions takes forever.
Sending internal business transcripts, financial discussions, or strategy notes to cloud APIs for cleanup wasn't an option for me β data privacy comes first.
So I spent the last few days building a native, 100% offline solution for macOS.
What LocalWhisper actually does:
Filters Speech Noise: Strips disfluencies, filler words, and conversational artifacts.
Extracts Signals from Noise: Isolates explicit decisions vs. casual ideas.
Auto-generates Structured Briefs: Outputs clean Markdown with Executive Summaries, Timelines, Risks, and Action Item tables (with owners & deadlines).
Detects Contradictions: Flags conflicting statements made during the discussion.
100% Local & Zero Cloud: No network calls, no telemetry, no data leaving your Mac.
Tech Stack:
Built with Tauri 2 (Rust) for an ultra-lightweight macOS desktop UI, powered by a zero-dependency Python (stdlib only) engine under the hood. Fast, lightweight, and completely isolated.
Would love to get your feedback, feature requests, or answer any technical questions about the build! π
