Could you build this?

Partial The UI and MCP connector are vibe-codeable, but system-level audio capture across disparate meeting software combined with performant local on-device transcription and diarization is technically complex.

What it would actually take: Requires native OS-level audio loopback/virtual audio driver drivers (CoreAudio on macOS, WASAPI on Windows) to capture system sound without bots. The local ML pipeline requires integrating whisper.cpp/ggml models and voice diarization (e.g., PyAnnote) optimized to run within strict local CPU/GPU memory constraints.
