Accurate transcription that runs entirely on your own computer, so nothing is ever uploaded to the cloud. Take notes in your meetings, dictate into any app, or write up recordings you already have.

v0.11.1 latest 13 May 2026 Features Hide calendar events without a join link, or restrict the Upcoming list to specific providers (Meet, Zoom, Teams). The same filters gate calendar notifications and auto-start Exclude meeting rooms, bots, or anyone else you don't want appearing as a speaker, using glob patterns under Calendar settings Open recordings on the Summary tab by default when one exists, via a new Appearance setting Improvements Speaker matching now sticks to people who are actually in this meeting, instead of guessing from everyone you've ever talked to. Recordings without participants stay unattributed rather than picking up noisy mismatches Calendar sync keeps existing events up to date if you move them, rename them, swap the join link, or change the invite list Choose a calendar-day cutoff for your Upcoming list: Today, Today and tomorrow, Next 3 days, or Next 7 days PDF exports render Cyrillic, Greek and other non-Latin characters correctly (CJK and Arabic still to come) Notifications no longer stack on top of each other when meeting or microphone state changes in quick succession Splitting a recording now generates a title, summary, export, and webhook for both halves, and the new half appears in your library immediately. The cut handle also shows up on hover, no right-click needed 'Today' and 'Tomorrow' labels on the home view and meeting pages roll over correctly across local midnight, even when you leave the app open The 'talat' wordmark in the sidebar is now a shortcut back to your library, and a cog next to Upcoming jumps to Calendar settings Discord link added to the Feedback page Fixes Turning on 'Restrict by source' and unchecking every provider no longer silently empties your Upcoming list
v0.9.0 latest 24 Apr 2026 Features Split a recording into two separate meetings, for those times when two conversations got captured as one session Merge two recordings into one, for the inverse: when a single meeting ended up split across two recordings (because you stopped and restarted, or the auto-stop fired too early) Improvements Auto-stop now defaults to a one-second grace period after your meeting app releases the mic, with the option to dial it down to zero for an immediate cutoff or higher if you want a longer buffer Small visual polish on the 'call in progress' notification, including an always-visible close button Loading an older meeting is smoother, with less flashing as the transcript fills in Fixes Windows: fixed a bug that could cause new recordings to come out empty after certain auto-stop sequences, until the app was restarted Fixed an error that could pop up when reassigning a speaker in a long meeting The summariser now recovers automatically if it crashes partway through, instead of needing a full restart
v0.8.0 latest 15 Apr 2026 Features Global keyboard shortcut to start and stop a recording from anywhere, with optional audio feedback Optional recording timer in the macOS menu bar, so you can see how long you've been at it without coming back to the app Editable summaries: click anywhere in a summary and start typing, with inline bold, italic, headings, and lists; edits save automatically New Help tab in settings, including a direct link to book a 15-minute support call if something's gone sideways Improvements New status line along the bottom of the window: live recording controls, model readiness, download progress, and update prompts, so you always know what talat is up to Updates now install cleanly when you quit talat, rather than fighting with the running app Faster, more reliable model downloads that properly resume if they get interrupted partway through Summarisation no longer blocks recording: if the local model is still downloading, you can record first and generate the summary once it's ready Transcription now works reliably with low-quality mics (e.g. 8kHz or 16-bit sources) that weren't being captured properly before Reassigning speakers uses the same command palette you see elsewhere in the app, with a one-click option to clear a speaker's entire assignment history The feedback form can optionally include your email so talat can reply, with clear copy about what happens either way Audio player shows hours:minutes:seconds for long meetings, and the segment play button now actually toggles to pause while playing The talat window takes focus on launch instead of hiding behind whatever else was on screen Better support for macOS Tahoe
v0.7.1 latest 8 Apr 2026 Fixes Fixed an issue where the app used increasingly more memory during long recordings Fixed the auto-recording prompt only appearing once instead of before every call Fixed auto-scroll not following the transcript when live speech indicators appear
v0.6.0 latest 30 Mar 2026 Features New three-panel layout: transcript in the centre, collapsible notes and people panels on the sides Inline notes — jot timestamped thoughts during a live recording, or reply directly to a transcript line to anchor a note in context Overhauled speaker recognition: tag expected participants before a meeting for better accuracy from the first word, and voice references now build automatically as speakers are identified Custom summarisation endpoints — point talat at any OpenAI-compatible API, including on-premise or private deployments like AWS Bedrock, corporate proxies, or self-hosted models Option to hide talat from the Dock and Cmd+Tab switcher so it lives purely in the menu bar Back and forward navigation in the toolbar, just like Finder "Meetings" renamed to "recordings" throughout the app — it better reflects how people actually use talat Improvements Built-in summarisation model upgraded to Qwen 3.5 4B — noticeably better output, same download size Models load instantly when already downloaded, even without an internet connection Live speaker detection is more accurate, with fewer misattributions mid-meeting Audio files can now be included in auto-export and batch export You can resume any past recording, regardless of how old it is Fixes Recordings stuck in a processing or crashed state now recover automatically on startup Fixed a layout glitch where live preview text briefly appeared twice after being finalised Very long recordings (4+ hours) no longer cause the audio processor to spin endlessly in the background Improved privacy safeguards around feedback and diagnostic logs Mic device selection now works reliably for non-default microphones Automatic meeting detection now works for non-admin macOS users Fixed a rare blank screen on startup caused by a boot-sequence timing issue
v0.4.0 latest 19 Mar 2026 Features A new 'People' tab on each meeting shows who spoke, for how long, and their transcript segments Speaker reassignment should feel a little more intuitive and work a bit more predictably UI scale is adjustable (75–150%) to make the interface more comfortable on large external displays Improvements People tab is available during live meetings as speakers are detected Speaker reassign and merge are now scoped to the current meeting and never touch other meetings Confirmation step before merging or reassigning a speaker Transcript bubble action icons are always visible with larger click targets Speaker command palette shows all known people, not just those detected in the current meeting Settings redesigned as an in-app two-column layout matching macOS System Settings Speakers renamed to "People" throughout the app Fixes Merging speakers no longer deletes the original speaker or modifies segments in other meetings Home screen no longer occasionally goes blank after stopping a recording
