Meetily

Meetily (also marketed as Meetly AI) is an open-source, self-hosted AI meeting note taker. It captures system audio directly from the device rather than joining meetings as a bot, performs transcription locally using Whisper models, and generates AI summaries using either local models (such as Ollama) or the user's own API key (such as Anthropic Claude, OpenAI, or Groq). The page states it works with Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Discord, Slack Huddles, Webex, and other video conferencing software, and offers a Community Edition free under the MIT license, a Pro plan at $10/user/month billed annually, and custom-priced Enterprise deployments. Desktop installers are listed for macOS and Windows, with Linux currently requiring a build from source. The page also describes compliance claims (GDPR and HIPAA designed-for compliance) and lists some features as coming soon, including chat with meetings, calendar integration, and mobile apps.
