Features

Remember what was agreed

Record microphone and meeting-app audio without a bot joining. Get local transcripts, recaps, decisions, and action items, with citations back to the discussion. You can also import audio and video files as meetings.

Find something you saw

One search across your meeting transcripts and, if you turn it on, what you saw on screen. Search by keyword or by meaning, then open the matching passage or screen moment instead of hunting through apps. The same window (⌃⇧ Space, or Ctrl+Shift+Space on Windows and Linux, once you turn on the shortcut in Settings → General) also runs app commands such as Record now or Start dictation from whatever app you're in.

Finish the sentence

As you type in other apps, gray text suggests how your sentence ends. Press Tab to take the next word, \` to take the rest, or keep typing.

Live suggestions in TextEdit, in real time. The ship date and condition come from the meeting with John. Fictional demo meeting.

• Knows what you're answering. It reads the message or page above the field, so a reply fits the thread.
• Remembers your meetings, if you let it. Turn on meeting and work memory, and it can bring in what was decided, like the ship date above.
• Writes in your language. On Mac, the same small model keeps up in German, French, Italian, Spanish, and more.
• Stays on your computer. A small model runs inside the app: Gemma 4 E2B on Mac, LFM2.5 1.2B on Windows and Linux. What you type and the context it reads never leave your computer.

Turn it on in Settings → Autocomplete, where you can try it on a sample conversation first and later see how much it wrote for you.

Pick up where you left off

What do I still need to do?

Today shows the day's summary and every open action, each linked to the meeting it came from. Each morning the overnight review adds a look back at yesterday. Where did the day go?

Retrace your day session by session. Tracking starts with app and window activity; screen text and screenshots are opt-in. If you use Claude Code or Codex, it can name the work by project and show related pull requests and commits.

What's open with Maya?

See what's waiting on you and what you decided together. Name a speaker once, and LokalBot recognizes their voice in later meetings. Where did I save that?

Search the folders you choose by what's in them: documents, PDF pages, pictures, and moments in recordings and video.

Where does this project stand?

Track a project, and LokalBot gathers the meetings, actions, and decisions that name it. Open it for a short note on where it stands, with links back to the meetings behind it. Not sure what to track? It suggests names that keep coming up in your meetings.

Ask, then check the source

Ask your own work a question. Answers cite their sources, and say so when one can't be verified. Follow a citation back to the transcript or audio. Generated notes are a starting point, not a substitute for the discussion.

Talk instead of typing

Turn on Dictation in Settings → Dictation, then hold ⌥ Space (Alt+Space on Windows and Linux, or a shortcut you choose there), speak, and release to insert text at your cursor in any app. Transcription runs on your computer, and your recent dictations are kept so you can copy one again. In Compose mode, say what you need and LokalBot writes it at your cursor, from your meetings if you let it. On Wayland, bind lokalbot dictate to a shortcut in your desktop's settings.

Rewrite what you selected

Turn on selection actions in Settings → General, select text in any app, and press ⌃⇧ W. Fix the grammar, make it shorter, translate it, summarize it, or type your own instruction, then replace the selection or copy the result. Draft a reply with my memory also searches your meetings, so the reply can use what was actually agreed, and lists the meetings it used. It runs on your Think model, which stays on your computer unless you chose and approved a server. On Windows and Linux the shortcut is Ctrl+Alt+Space, because ⌃⇧ W closes tabs and windows there; on Wayland, bind lokalbot selection-actions to a shortcut in your desktop's settings.

It remembers how you work

Personal Context is an encrypted list of your facts, preferences, goals, and principles. Tell Ask "Remember I want the agenda the day before," add items in Settings, or let the overnight review pick up facts and preferences from your own words in meetings. Ask uses what it holds, so answers fit your work.

• Only your own words. It learns
