Tome drops local meeting transcription into Obsidian
Tome is a macOS meeting-capture app that records mic and system audio, transcribes it locally with Parakeet-TDT v3, and writes structured Markdown notes directly into an Obsidian vault. The pitch is strongly privacy-first: no cloud processing, no API keys, no accounts, and no audio leaving the machine. It is aimed at people who already run an Obsidian-based knowledge workflow and want transcripts to land in a vault-native format that downstream agents can process.
// ANALYSIS
Strong fit for Obsidian-heavy users who want transcription to behave like part of their note system rather than a separate SaaS silo.
- –The main differentiator is workflow, not just transcription: capture → local ASR → vault-ready `.md` → agent-friendly notes.
- –The privacy story is credible and sharp because the repo explicitly leans on on-device processing and no-network behavior.
- –The practical constraint is hardware and platform lock-in: Apple Silicon, macOS 26+, and Xcode 26.3+ make this narrowly targeted.
- –Speaker diarization and system-audio capture make it more than a voice memo tool, but the real value is the structured output into Obsidian.
