OpenMinutes
OpenMinutes: OpenSource workbench that turns voice-recorder MP3s into searchable, categorized text.
OpenMinutes is an open-source Floatboat Workbench app used with the memotalk-sdk hardware client to process voice recordings. It connects import, transcription, classification, and search in one workflow for MemoTalk S1 MP3s. Users can import via directory scans, device manifests, or BLE downloads, and stream transcriptions using ffmpeg and Host ASR. The Host LLM generates structured titles, summaries, categories, tags, key points, action items, and importance levels. The app features search and review, audio playback with HTTP Range support, live captions, category management, and device setup.
