Shortlist Anarlog when engineers and developers wanting private, bot-free meeting notes matters most, and Grava AI when capturing lectures or study sessions and generating summaries matters most. Run both through a week of actual calls to see which suits your workflow.

Anarlog is an open-source, local-first AI meeting notetaker developed by Fastrepl, Inc., the team behind the project previously known as Hyprnote and Char. It is positioned as an open-source alternative to cloud meeting-notes tools and is designed for people who want to keep meeting data under their own control. Instead of sending a bot into a call, Anarlog captures system audio directly on the user's computer, transcribes it locally, and merges the transcript with short notes the user jots down during the meeting to produce structured, editable summaries with action items. Audio, transcripts, and notes are stored as files on the local disk rather than in an external service, and users can choose between running local AI models or supplying their own API keys for cloud processing. The application is available for Apple Silicon Macs and its codebase is published on GitHub under a GPL license, so it can be inspected, forked, and self-hosted. Anarlog is best for engineers, privacy-conscious professionals, and teams that want bot-free meeting notes with full ownership of their data. Pricing varies by plan.

Grava AI is a Brazilian AI meeting-recorder app developed by MG Solucoes Digitais (MeuGuru), an EdTech company in Brazil. Available on iOS and Android, it records audio and automatically converts it to text with speaker identification, then produces intelligent summaries that condense long recordings into clear, topic-organized notes. Its transcription engine is oriented to Brazilian Portuguese, and the app also supports Spanish and English. Beyond transcription and summaries, Grava AI includes an interactive chat that lets users ask questions directly about a recording, a To-Do feature that turns recordings into editable task lists, and the ability to generate professional PDF reports. Practical touches include background uploads with a notification when a summary is ready, and automatic pause and resume when an incoming phone call interrupts recording so audio is not lost. The app receives frequent updates, indicating active development and maintenance. It is designed for professionals and students who need to capture meetings, classes and important conversations and quickly transform them into searchable transcripts, summaries and action items on their phone. As a mobile-first tool from a Brazilian developer with Portuguese-language focus, it fits the Latin American market for AI meeting capture. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
