Shortlist Fellow when automatically capturing notes, decisions, and action items during recurring team meetings matters most, and Thoth when users who want offline, private meeting notes on a mac matters most. Try them side by side on real calls before deciding — needs vary by team.

Privacy-first macOS app that records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings entirely on-device with no cloud or data leaving the Mac.
Fellow (fellow.ai, formerly fellow.app) is an AI meeting assistant focused on privacy and security. It records and transcribes meetings with real-time transcripts in 90+ languages, generates structured summaries, and automatically extracts and assigns action items. Recordings can run with a visible bot or "botless" directly from the desktop apps (Mac/Windows), and mobile apps capture in-person conversations. Its AskFellow AI agent searches across meetings you have access to, then drafts follow-up emails, memos, and CRM updates. Fellow works with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Slack Huddles, phone calls, and in-person meetings, and integrates with 50+ tools including Salesforce, HubSpot, Asana, Jira, Linear, Notion, Confluence, Slack, and Zapier. It offers SOC 2, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance. The free plan includes a lifetime cap of 5 AI notes and 5 AI recordings per user.

Thoth is a native macOS application, created by Matthieu Veinhard, that records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings entirely on the user's device. It captures both microphone and system audio so it can record both sides of online meetings on platforms such as Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet, and it provides live transcription with on-device speech-to-text. An on-device engine detects and color-codes individual speakers in the transcript, and the app supports a large number of languages via Whisper-based transcription. After a meeting, Thoth extracts notes, action items, and key decisions, and lets users choose between several on-device models or supply their own cloud API key, with an on-device anonymization step that can redact sensitive information before any optional cloud processing. Output can be exported to formats including PDF, Word, Markdown, and timestamped JSON. Because the app has no server and no user database, the company emphasizes that there is nothing to breach or hand over. Thoth requires Apple Silicon and is aimed at privacy-conscious professionals, those handling confidential information, and neurodivergent users who benefit from automatic capture, and it is available on the Mac App Store with an iOS beta in progress. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.
