MEETINGS
Velocity0.0

Local-first meeting notes app makes AI Chat the primary surface, leans further into bring-your-own-model.

◆Current state
Hyprnote is a local-first Mac app for AI-summarized meeting notes from a three-person team that ships weekly. The last two months consolidated the foundation: stable Pro Parakeet STT, custom STT and LLM endpoints, LM Studio GGUF support, a built-in fallback language model, and the v0.0.83 UI rewrite that promotes AI Chat to the primary interaction surface.
◆Where it's heading
The product is moving from 'AI-generated summary you read' toward 'queryable meeting record you chat with.' v0.0.83's reorganized panels, the inline 'Ask AI' on summary sections, and context-aware chat recommendations all point in this direction. Reliability has been the recurring drag — three of the last six releases were either hotfixes or shipped with material audio bugs that needed follow-up patches.
◆Prediction
Expect the next two releases to expand HyprCloud's tool surface beyond Exa/Jina (more agentic capabilities inside chat) and to focus on stabilizing the audio pipeline that has been the source of repeated hotfixes.

    v0.0.83 (Major UI Changes)

    ⚡ SPARK

    The biggest UI rewrite in months: Summary, Memos, and Transcript collapse into header tabs inside one editor, and the right panel becomes a dedicated AI Chat that recommends actions based on meeting state. This makes the chat surface, not the static summary, the primary place users interact with a meeting after the fact.

    Pro Parakeet STT out of beta; chat migrates to Vercel AI SDK

    Stabilized the in-house Pro Parakeet transcription models out of beta, fixed Deepgram multi-language and punctuation, and rebuilt chat on Vercel's UseChat for better tool-calling UI. Mostly groundwork that prepared the chat surface for the bigger UI shift in v0.0.83.

    Audio pipeline hotfix after a bumpy v0.0.80 release

    Hotfix for the audio pipeline that broke in the prior version, plus an auto-save fix for transcript search-and-replace. The team also published a public note owning the recent run of unstable releases — a trajectory signal that they are shipping fast enough to break things and choosing to acknowledge it rather than paper over it.

    Built-in 200 MB language model and headphones-free audio fix

    Adds a 200 MB bundled language model as a fallback for users without external LLM access, fixes audio capture when no headphones are connected, and tightens notification handling. The headphones fix turned out to be incomplete and was patched again in v0.0.81.

    Custom templates can pull in past tagged meeting notes

    Templates gain a Context feature that auto-references prior meetings sharing a tag — a template tagged 'ai-glass' pulls every prior 'ai-glass' meeting into the new summary. First sign of Hyprnote treating notes as a graph the AI reads from, rather than a flat stream.

    LM Studio GGUF models now usable inside Hyprnote

    ⚡ SPARK

    Any GGUF model loaded in LM Studio can now drive Hyprnote summaries and chat, broadening the bring-your-own-model surface to the entire local model ecosystem. Custom vocabularies also became self-training — replacing a word in the transcript editor adds it to the vocab list automatically.
