Otter joins the call. DroidNote does not.

Fireflies, Fathom and Granola show up in the grid and send the audio to the cloud. Here the code is public, the app is free and nobody extra joins the meeting.

A bot in the room

  • An extra participant. Someone has to accept.
  • The audio goes to their server. Then the invoice arrives.
  • The client sees it. The call changes.

Open source on this PC

  • No bot. No subscription. No account.
  • Meet, Teams or Zoom audio is already on Windows.

Microphone and headphones, one file

Dictation uses the microphone only. Lecture and meeting also capture system audio, whatever already leaves the headset.

Microphone

Your voice on this PC. Ideas, reminders, anything you do not want mixed into the call.

System audio

Zoom, Meet, Teams, YouTube, the lecture in the player. No virtual cable. No bot in the room.

Local, free, open source

Whisper and Ollama on this disk. DroidWerk never receives your audio. OpenAI only comes in if you paste your own key.

Audio, transcript and notes on this PC. No subscription. You turn WAV on or off in Preferences.Default
