Could you build this?

Partial While a native Swift UI shell can be generated, executing on-device transcription, cross-recording speaker diarization, and local LLM inference entirely offline on iOS requires specialized on-device ML optimization.

What it would actually take: The architecture requires an iOS/macOS Swift application utilizing CoreML and WhisperKit (or whisper.cpp) for speech-to-text, paired with an offline speaker diarization pipeline (such as converted PyAnnote or speaker embedding models) and a quantized local LLM via MLX or llama.cpp. The primary engineering hurdles are fitting these models within iOS memory and thermal constraints while maintaining real-time processing speeds.
