Reco

This is a vibe-coding project, built with DeepSeek and Kimi. The problem came from my own work: meetings happen every day, but I needed a way to record them without handing the audio to a cloud service. So I made my own meeting recorder — one that fits how I actually work, and keeps everything on my machine.

A caption window has one job: be readable, and get out of the way. Original speech in large white type, translation beneath in quiet gray — you know who said what at a glance. The window stays clear of the action, never translucent, never half-hidden. Glass, used sparingly. Dark, by default. When the meeting ends, the export holds exactly what matters: the minutes.

A Tauri shell for capture and windows, a Python core for everything that thinks — streaming speech recognition, a local 8B language model for translation and summaries, offline re-recognition for cleanup. No backend, no cloud dependency. Built in a vibe-coding loop, packaged into a real .app, shipped to family, then friends, then open source.
