    Great work! Personally would love the option to skip out on some of local model post processing features or optionally offload it to openrouter, the summarization steps and the ask feature eat up tons of resources.

      Makes sense. Will add support for that soon.

    I’ll add it to my open-source directory[0].

    How does it differ from Muesli[1] and OpenOats[2]?

      It's at least not limited to macs

    The electron use is giving me pause. It’s going to eat up memory.

    Enable transcription and at the end summarize it, and those are your notes. Anything critical, pressing, or deserves immediate attention, you write it down. That’s it! Not sure why there are so many apps redoing it over and over again in a very similar way.

    Yogurt team - congratulations on your launch. I am not throwing a wrench at you. Those are my thoughts about this category in general.

    How does this compare to OpenWhispr and similar apps?

    Currently using OpenWhispr. What is the difference between the two?

    Gonna give this a try! I too stopped all the other subscriptions and have been looking for something that works well.
    • brownrout 36 minutes ago
      Awesome. Hope this can fill that gap for you.

    I made something like this myself but because I didn't want anyone to know I was doing it, no bot in the call, I couldn't diarise the notes. I have what's been said, but not who said it. Did you manage to solve this?
    • brownrout 52 minutes ago
      Yeah Yogurt uses accessibility permissions to grab speaker names from Zoom, Google Meet, etc. But that said, I recommend you let people know if you're going to take a recording.

    Is it possible to choose which model or models are used for transcription? Are other languages, such as French, supported?
    • brownrout 39 minutes ago
      Other languages yep. Model is automatically chosen and downloaded based on what your computer's hardware can support.

    I also got frustrated with Granola earlier this year and have been building my replacement - Noted: https://takenoted.com/

    It shares similar principles but is (currently) closed source and mac-only.

    Take a look at anarlog as well - it's a great project and I wish I'd found it earlier as I probably would have contributed instead of starting my own: https://anarlog.so/

    Let me know if you want to compare notes - I am sure we have hit a lot of the same issues.

    • brownrout 40 minutes ago
      Compare notes ha :) I tried Anarlog and still wanted to build Yogurt for personal use. But the more open source options the better.

    Excited to give it a whirl. Great work!

    looks amazing! if you used AI coding agents to build this, any reason why you couldn't refactor this to use gpui or rune to still get cross platform but have better performance?
    • brownrout 50 minutes ago
      We wanted to leverage the React ecosystem to get the UI we wanted, so went with Electron.

    Hmm... granola is usually yummy with yogurt.
    • brownrout 53 minutes ago
      Both healthy, delicious options ;)

    The name reminds me of the line in Spaceballs:

    "Yogurt!? Yogurt! I hate yogurt! Even with strawberries!"

    • brownrout 41 minutes ago
      Just in time for Spaceballs 2
