Open-source tool turns voice memos into structured notes, running fully offline
TalkNotTyping is a Python project that converts voice recordings into markdown notes containing a title, summary, action items, key points, and the full transcript. It uses faster-whisper for speech-to-text and a local open-weight model via Ollama, so after initial model downloads it can run without a network connection. Users can process files from the command line or through a small local web page, and options allow filtering to action items, exporting todo or calendar files, and adding tags. The tool avoids inventing due dates, only creating calendar entries when a specific date is spoken. It can also run in Google Colab for machines too small to host the notes model.
