I'm definitely biased as the developer, but maybe try https://whistle-enterprise.com and see how it works for you.

It's a hard problem I've been working away on for a while now. It's far from perfect but every step brings it a bit closer.

> The breakdown in the pipeline seems to be reliable local diarization

Yep, diarization just hasn't been well solved yet. As soon as it has, the quality in note-takers, meeting transcripts, etc, will sky-rocket across the board.

Drafts.app is hideous but it has great routing capability and a dictation feature. I use it to capture what my thoughts and route based on content. I have a button that routes to an internal voice agent named KiKo. Ideas get routed to Things or todoist. Issues get routed to github, etc. It’s one universal surface for note capture.

But man is it ugly.

> I'm very intrigued by AI note takers, but I'm absolutely unwilling to expose me or my clients to this exact problem

Unfortunately it’s mostly not up to you. It’s a weakest-link problem. It doesn’t matter if you don’t use a note taker AI, if even one person on the call uses one. Their tool doesn’t notify you and usually the person doesn’t either.

It also has the reverse impact to the person using the note taker, where people say less around them. Same as if I'm talking to someone with Meta glasses.

I wonder if the people who use these tools know the people they meet with speak less during their meetings, and then all of the participants have a post-meeting call without them to say what they really thought.
