Could you build this?

Partial The notes UI and summarization are straightforward, but truly on-device live transcription across iPhone, Mac, and Android plus system-audio capture from Zoom/Teams/Meet requires native platform audio expertise.

What it would actually take: Use on-device speech models (Whisper.cpp or Apple's Speech framework) for transcription, with ScreenCaptureKit or equivalent for Mac system audio and native Android audio capture. Summaries can use a local or API LLM. The hard parts are low-latency native audio pipelines, permissions handling per OS, and battery/thermal tuning, which need experienced mobile and macOS engineers.
