Rough speech: um thanks for making time today. you know the standup notes are in Anarlog, and the client liked the direction. like we should make the next version easier to get started with. uh let’s simplify the first screen and put the main action at the top. I mean people should know what to do without reading a whole guide. so, um I’ll send the updated proposal tomorrow morning. you know please add your feedback before Thursday so we can review it together. and, like if anything is unclear, leave a comment next to the relevant section. um after that, we can share the final plan with the team and get started. .

We deeply care about transparency. Anarlog is open source so anyone can inspect how meeting memory is handled.
9,417 stars on GitHubStart local for free, add dictation and personal cloud features with Pro, put collaboration on Team, and reserve organization-wide controls for Enterprise.
Private, local meeting notes with on-device models or your own API keys.
Hosted transcription, AI, dictation, sync, and personal workflows for one person.
A paid shared workspace with Pro for every member; each workspace has its own per-seat billing.
Organization-wide security, policy, and deployment controls with a founder-led rollout.
To the people who still take notes,
Notetaking matters more than note-takers. A note-taker is passive. A notepad is something you use. You stay present and in control while the room is still alive.
Most AI tools ask you to move your memory into their ecosystem and rules. Meeting notes should stay in software you control, with a local record that can work offline.
Interfaces change. Your meeting record should remain yours. Use on-device models or your own keys, not a service you cannot inspect.
Anarlog is our attempt to build that meeting notepad.
