Your meeting, minus the meeting.

BoringTalks records the call on your Mac, writes it all down, and hands you a title, a summary and who promised what. You can keep nodding.

I have a hard stop. In 50 minutes.

Minute 12. Someone shares the wrong screen.
Minute 31. “Let’s circle back.” Nobody asks to what.
Minute 47. The fourth status meeting this week.

Meetings are boring.

Notes about them shouldn’t be your job.

How it works

1Your Mac records both sides
Start a meeting from the menu bar. Your microphone becomes “You”, whatever the call plays becomes Speaker 1, 2, 3. Zoom, Meet, Teams, a podcast you pretend is work: it doesn’t care which app.
2It’s transcribed on your Mac
A speech model runs on the Mac’s own chip, so turning an hour of talk into text costs nothing and nobody is billed per minute. Voices are told apart on the device too.
3The server writes the boring part
Only the text goes up. One small AI call turns it into a title that actually says something, a summary, key topics, action items with owners, and the decisions everyone will later claim they never agreed to.

Pricing review: Pro to $29, launch Nov 3

Decisions

Pro is $29/month from Nov 3
Annual plan stays at $240

Then everybody wakes up for the summary.

A minute after you hang up, the meeting is in your dashboard with a title that says what happened, a short summary, key topics, action items with owners and due dates, and the decisions. An email too, if you want one.

Wait, it wrote down who’s doing what?

Totalabout 2¢

Thank you for not taking notes.

Costs about two cents. Leaks about nothing.

The expensive part of meeting notes is turning speech into text. Your Mac already has a chip for that, so we let it do the work and keep the server for the cheap part.

No bot joins your call
Nobody gets the “Notetaker has joined the meeting” moment. The Mac app listens the way your ears do: from your side of the call.
Speech becomes text on your Mac
The transcript is made on the device and only the text is uploaded. Keeping the audio for playback is up to you.
Audio skips our servers
If you keep it, the recording goes straight from your Mac or browser to private storage through a one-time link. Delete the meeting and it goes too.

Put a notetaker on your Mac.

It lives in the menu bar, records when you tell it to, and stays out of the way the rest of the time. It’s free.

The first launch

Open the disk image and drag BoringTalks into Applications.
Allow Microphone when asked. That’s your side of the call.
Allow System Audio Recording (System Settings, Privacy & Security, Screen & System Audio Recording). That’s everyone else.
Click the menu bar icon and sign in. Your browser opens this site to connect the Mac to your account.

Skip the next meeting. Read it instead.

Make an account, and there’s already a demo meeting waiting with its summary, so you can see what you’re getting before you record anything.
