About Hyprnote
Local-first meeting notes app makes AI Chat the primary surface, leans further into bring-your-own-model.
Hyprnote is a local-first Mac app for AI-summarized meeting notes from a three-person team that ships weekly. The last two months consolidated the foundation: stable Pro Parakeet STT, custom STT and LLM endpoints, LM Studio GGUF support, a built-in fallback language model, and the v0.0.83 UI rewrite that promotes AI Chat to the primary interaction surface.
