Oats is a meeting notes application that operates as open-source software, allowing users to document meetings directly on their computers without the need for a bot to join the call. It captures audio locally and converts the dialogue into an organized summary, including action items assigned to specific owners, a quality score for the meeting, and a searchable transcript reflecting the actual conversation. Compatible with platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, phone calls, and even in-person discussions, Oats ensures that any audio detected by your computer can be transformed into notes. Users have the option to run recordings and AI-driven notes entirely on their devices using a local model for enhanced privacy, or they can link to an Ariso account for more advanced AI functionalities. Each recorded meeting is stored in a searchable library, enabling users to inquire about past meetings and easily access previous decisions or commitments. Action items are neatly organized in a dedicated Todos section rather than becoming lost within the notes, and users can automatically close completed tasks directly from the meeting notes. This streamlined approach not only enhances productivity but also ensures that critical information from meetings is readily accessible for future reference.
