Meetily offers free AI-powered meeting transcription and summarization across platforms
Meetily provides a no-cost, open-source solution that records, transcribes and summarizes meetings on Windows and macOS without requiring a subscription.
Meetily bundles open-source AI models into a simple desktop tool that records both microphone and system sound, making it compatible with any online meeting platform and even in-person sessions using a laptop microphone. Users can start and stop recordings at will, view live transcription, and then generate AI-driven summaries with optional instructions on emphasis. The software also supports importing previously recorded audio or video files for batch processing.
The free community edition, downloadable from GitHub, omits speaker labels, a limitation not found in some alternatives, while a Pro subscription costs $10 per month. Competing tools such as noScribe, Anarlog and Quill offer varying features, but Meetily stands out for its real-time capability and zero-cost entry point.
Why it matters
It gives individuals and teams a low-cost way to capture and summarize meeting content without relying on paid cloud services.
