Yogurt — AI for Personal Productivity & Executive Assistants

As an executive assistant or professional managing heavy schedules, maintaining privacy while organizing meeting outcomes is a constant operational hurdle. Many transcription tools rely on cloud processing or dispatch visible bots into video calls, which can cause friction with participants and raise data privacy concerns. Yogurt addresses this by capturing audio directly from your microphone and computer system sound without requiring any external bots or third-party installations. Because the transcription and summarization AI models run locally on your hardware after a one-time download, your recordings, transcripts, and notes remain strictly on your machine. You can review transcripts, add personal notes during calls, combine your thoughts into a unified action plan, and query the system to find specific details you missed. The application supports offline use once initialized and is available as a free, open-source tool under the MIT license. While calendar integrations and speaker identification features are currently restricted to Mac users, the cross-platform availability for Windows and Linux ensures you can maintain local transcription control across different operating systems. If your primary requirement is keeping business discussions off external servers while still benefiting from automated summaries and clear next steps, Yogurt offers a direct, privacy-first utility.
