Problem

Professionals in meetings, interviews, and research need to capture and search audio content without switching between multiple tools or relying on cloud services.

Approach

Swift menu bar app using AVFoundation for audio capture. FastAPI backend with Whisper for transcription. SQLite for local transcript storage with full-text search. Designed for minimal UI presence with maximum utility.

Result

macOS menu bar prototype combining native UX, audio capture, and AI transcription.
