Could you build this?
Partial A Mac app with on-device transcription and summaries is vibe-codeable, but capturing system audio reliably and running local speech and LLM models well requires platform-specific work that is hard to get right.
What it would actually take: Build a native macOS app in Swift using ScreenCaptureKit or Core Audio taps for system audio, with whisper.cpp or a Core ML Whisper model for on-device transcription. Summaries can run through a small local LLM or an optional API. The hard parts are speaker separation, long-recording performance, and permissions handling, so the builder needs macOS audio experience and the time to tune local models.
