Hearbit AI 🦉🎙️

Hearbit AI is your professional meeting assistant for macOS. It records both your microphone and system audio (e.g., Teams, Zoom), transcribes it with high precision using Infomaniak's Whisper API, and generates intelligent, structured summaries.

✨ Features

• 📅 Microsoft 365 Integration:
  • Upcoming Meetings: View your daily schedule and join with one click.
  • Meeting Details: View full agenda and invited attendee status (Accepted/Declined).

• ✉️ Email Summaries: Send professional, formatted HTML summaries (with preview) directly to attendees via your own SMTP server.
• 🧠 Powered by Infomaniak AI:
  • Precision Transcription: Standard-compliant formatting with second-by-second timestamps.
  • Smart Summaries: Uses Smart Templates to automatically select the best format (Business Protocol vs. 1:1) based on meeting content.

🎧 Recording System Audio (Teams, Zoom, etc.)

We've made this easy! Note: You must have the BlackHole driver installed.

1. Create "Hearbit Audio" Device:

   • Open the app and select Meeting mode.
   • If you don't have the device yet, click the "🪄 Create Hearbit Audio Device" button.
   • This creates a specialized "Multi-Output Device" that routes audio to both your headphones/speakers AND the app.

2. Configure Teams / Zoom / Webex:

   • Speaker / Output: Change this to Hearbit Audio.
     • Why? This ensures the audio goes to the recording app and your ears.
   • Microphone / Input: Leave this as your normal microphone (e.g., MacBook Pro Mic).
     • Note: Do not select Hearbit Audio as your microphone in Teams.

3. Start Recording:

   • In Hearbit AI, ensure Hearbit Audio is selected as the input.
