Use case · Privacy-first
Some calls can't go through a permanent-storage transcription service. Minuta captures audio locally on your computer and processes it via a reviewed, narrow cloud chain with a strict zero-retention policy — no bot in the room, no permanent storage of your conversations, transcripts saved in the desktop app.
Your call has someone who would notice if it were recorded by a third-party processor. The lawyer's client. The patient. The CEO on the other side of the M&A. Or your own security team that flagged cloud uploads. You currently don't transcribe these calls — you take notes by hand, you forget half of them, and the follow-ups are weaker than they should be.
Existing options force a choice. SaaS tools stream and store audio on their servers. Minuta captures audio locally and routes it through a short, reviewed cloud chain — Deepgram for speech-to-text with OpenAI or Groq as fallback — under strict zero-retention terms. Audio is processed transiently and not retained beyond the API call. The transcript file stays in your desktop app's local SQLite database.
Legal / privileged
You're prepping a deposition or running a privileged client call. Minuta captures system audio on your computer, routes it through a reviewed transcription provider under zero-retention terms, and stores the transcript in the desktop app. No third-party bot joins. No long-term cloud storage. See the full provider list on our Trust page.
Healthcare / regulated
Care-coordination call where the audio is sensitive. Minuta keeps the final transcript in your local desktop app, using a short reviewed cloud chain with no data retention. No third-party bot in the path, no long-term storage hop. Audio payloads are narrow — Minuta sends audio, gets text back, and the provider discards the payload.
M&A / exec
Pre-LOI conversation with the founder you're acquiring. Minuta is invisible to call participants, captures system audio locally, routes a narrow audio payload to a reviewed transcription provider, and stores the result in your desktop app. No bot, no permanent cloud logs, no audit trail outside your machine.
Open Minuta a minute before the call. Run the call as you always would — Zoom, Teams, Meet, FaceTime. Minuta captures system audio on the computer and routes it through a reviewed, zero-retention cloud chain.
