About AutoDoc
AutoDoc is a desktop application for macOS and Windows that records screen video, microphone audio and system audio during meetings. It transcribes conversations locally using on-device AI models, identifies speakers and generates structured notes organized into five categories. The application maintains a synchronized recording of what was shown on screen alongside the transcript, allowing users to review both the spoken content and the visual context of any moment. AutoDoc supports search across all transcripts and notes, with results deep-linking to the exact moment in the recording. It also includes a conversational AI assistant that answers questions about meeting content using locally processed data. The tool operates offline and stores all files encrypted on the user’s machine, with keys protected by the operating system’s keychain or DPAPI. AutoDoc integrates with calendar applications to automatically detect and record upcoming meetings, with options to control recording behavior for recurring events.

Frequently asked questions about AutoDoc
What is AutoDoc?
AutoDoc is a local-first desktop application for macOS and Windows that records screen video, microphone audio, and system audio during meetings. It transcribes conversations on-device, identifies speakers, and generates structured notes using Ollama, all while keeping files encrypted on the user’s machine.
Does AutoDoc join my meeting with a bot?
No. AutoDoc captures screen video, microphone, and system audio directly from your device like a local screen recording. It does not introduce a bot into the participant list of Zoom, Meet, Teams, or other meeting applications.
Which meeting apps does AutoDoc support?
AutoDoc has been tested with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Slack, Discord, and browser-based calls. Because it captures system audio directly, it is designed to work with most meeting applications without requiring platform-specific integrations.
What are the system requirements for AutoDoc?
AutoDoc requires macOS 14+ on Apple Silicon or Windows 10+ on 64-bit x64. It supports 8 GB RAM, though 16 GB or more is recommended for the best experience. On systems with 8 GB RAM, AutoDoc uses a smaller local model and may take longer to process meetings after they conclude.
How does AutoDoc differ between Search and Ask AI?
Search finds exact phrases across transcripts and notes, providing deep links to the exact moment in the recording. Ask AI is a conversational assistant that answers questions in plain English, grounded in the meeting history and calendar, using locally processed data.
How does AutoDoc handle privacy and data storage?
AutoDoc operates offline and stores all files encrypted on the user’s machine. Encryption keys are protected by the operating system’s keychain (macOS) or DPAPI (Windows). No data leaves the user’s computer, and transcription and note generation are performed locally.
