This is what a finished protocol looks like.
Why local?
Cloud notetakers upload your meeting to someone else's servers. meetergo Log transcribes straight on your machine: faster, more private, free.
No bot. No cloud. No tracking.
Audio and transcripts stay on your device. We never see them.
You're handing your meetings to servers you don't control.
Every cloud notetaker uploads your audio over the internet, often to US servers, often training on your data — and not everyone on the call has agreed.
A stranger in every single call
“Otter Notetaker is recording” — awkward in front of clients and often legally questionable in the EU.
Recordings are processed on US servers
Even if the UI promises EU, transcription, diarization and storage usually live in the US.
Your conversations train someone else's model
On free plans “use data to improve our service” is usually the default. You're in those datasets.
$0 quickly becomes $20–30 per user per month
Free tier limits are tight enough that any team running real meetings gets squeezed into a paid plan.
meetergo Log flips this on its head.
Recording + transcription run 100% on your device. No bot, no cloud, no hidden cost. Open-source models, your hardware, your data.
