Meetily is an open-source, self-hosted AI meeting assistant (Tauri/Rust + Next.js) that records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings entirely on-device. Transcription runs locally via Whisper/Parakeet models with speaker diarization, and no audio leaves the machine. For summaries, users choose a local LLM through Ollama or bring their own provider API key for Anthropic Claude, Groq, OpenRouter, or OpenAI, including a Custom OpenAI-compatible Endpoint option. MIT licensed and free as a Community Edition, with a paid Pro tier (from $10/user/month) and an optional Hosted AI summary service. Distributed as native macOS and Windows installers; Linux is build-from-source. Repo has ~12.8k stars and is actively maintained (v0.4.0, June 2026).

How your API key is handled

Your API key is stored locally on your device. Requests are sent directly to the AI provider. Because it can be self-hosted, your key never has to touch a third-party backend.

Setup

Open settings, paste your provider API key, choose a model, and start — the key stays on your device.
