Biscotti.

Local macOS meeting recording, transcripts and AI summaries.

A new take on the workflow.

Biscotti records meeting audio and produces speaker-labeled transcripts and summaries locally. Its maker documents imports from Granola and a local MCP integration. It is a focused alternative for meeting notes, not a replacement for every team-sharing feature.

What you can switch today.

Record meetings and create transcripts and summaries locally instead of using Granola for that workflow.

Install on a supported Apple-silicon Mac and review the application permissions.
With participants informed, record a short test meeting and review speaker labels and summary accuracy.
Try import and export using copies of existing notes before changing your workflow.

Switching caveat. Mac-only, with model downloads and hardware requirements; source-available license restrictions apply and team features differ. Workflow evidence

Where it falls short.

Requires Apple silicon and macOS 15 or later; 16 GB RAM is recommended. The PolyForm Perimeter license is source-available and restricts use; it is not an open-source license. Team collaboration parity is not established.

Granola alternatives

Check recording permissions, speaker labels, note export and collaboration on a representative meeting. Local-only transcription differs from a hosted team workspace.
