Anarlog (formerly Hyprnote)

Anarlog, formerly Hyprnote, is a desktop AI meeting notetaker for people who want to keep sensitive conversations on their own hardware. It's an open-source Granola alternative that combines personal notes with meeting transcripts.

• Bot-free capture: Records audio from your device without joining the call as a participant and stays hidden during screen sharing.
• Summaries and chat: Creates editable meeting summaries and lets you ask questions about meeting content, with independent choices for transcription and language models.
• Notes and exports: Organizes notes in folders, supports templates and exports Markdown for use outside the app.
• Local connections: Provides a local API, CLI, MCP server and webhooks to connect meeting records with other software.

The desktop app runs on macOS, Windows and Linux. Built-in on-device transcription is available on supported Macs. Summaries and chat can use OpenAI-compatible local servers such as Ollama, LM Studio or Unsloth. With on-device transcription and local language models, the meeting workflow can work offline.

Notes and transcripts stay in a local SQLite database by default; recordings and attachments are ordinary local files. Hosted transcription and AI are optional, and the selected providers process the content you send them. Optional encrypted cloud sync and sharing use hosted services.

The community application is free and MIT-licensed. Source-visible enterprise components have a commercial license.
