Hyprnote is a local-first AI notepad designed for people in back-to-back meetings. It's an open-source alternative for Granola AI.
Here are the key things to know:
1. Runs on your Mac with no bots or cloud upload – the app uses on-device AI to process your raw notes and audio.
2. Creates enhanced summaries by combining your notes with surrounding meeting context.
3. No need to export or sync manually – it works like Apple Notes, but understands what was said.
4. Open-source and built with Rust + TypeScript (Tauri), it’s lightweight and respects your data.
Why it matters: Most AI notetakers upload your meetings to the cloud. Hyprnote doesn’t. It runs everything locally – giving you full control over your data while still offering the benefits of modern AI.
