The notepad that cleans up after your meetings.
Take rough notes during your meetings. OpenWhispr listens in the background and turns them into clear, organized summaries — decisions, action items, and follow-ups.
How it works
Three steps. Zero setup.
No plugins, no integrations, no meeting bots. Just open the app and start your meeting.
Start your meeting
Open any meeting on Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, or any other app. OpenWhispr captures your computer's audio directly — no bots join your call, and nobody knows it's running.
Take notes your way
Write quick bullets, messy thoughts, whatever works for you. OpenWhispr transcribes the full conversation in the background while you stay focused on the meeting.
Get clean, structured notes
When you're done, AI turns your rough notes and the full transcript into clear meeting minutes — decisions, action items, and key takeaways, ready to share.
AI-enhanced notes
You write three bullets. AI does the rest.
Jot down whatever comes to mind during your meeting. When it's over, OpenWhispr combines your notes with the full transcript and turns everything into structured meeting minutes — decisions, action items, and next steps.
Switch between your raw notes, the full transcript, and the AI-enhanced version anytime. Nothing gets overwritten — your original notes are always there.

AI actions
Turn your notes into emails, summaries, and action items.
After any meeting, run AI actions on your notes — summarize the discussion, draft a follow-up email, extract all action items, or format everything using your team's template.
Create your own custom actions for the things you do after every meeting. Save time on the repetitive work so you can focus on what matters.
Stay organized
Folders for every project, team, and client.
Create folders to keep your meeting notes organized however you work. Group notes by project, by team, by client — whatever makes sense for you.
Every meeting is automatically saved and easy to find. No more digging through a single long list of notes.
Search
Find anything, from any meeting.
Search across all your transcripts, notes, and summaries. Instantly find what was discussed, who said what, and what was decided — even months ago.

Private by design
Your meetings are your business.
Your meeting recordings and notes are yours. We don't store your audio, we don't keep copies, and we never use your data to train models.
Zero data retention
Your audio is processed in real time and immediately discarded — no recordings stored, no copies made, ever. Your notes live on your device, and our code is open source so you can verify every claim yourself.
Don't take our word for it. Read the source code.
Why OpenWhispr
A better way to handle meeting notes.
Same capabilities as other tools, but your data stays yours.
