The kind of bagel that ruins lesser bagels for you.
Summary
Trace is a macOS app that provides local, private meeting transcription. It captures microphone and system audio, transcribes everything on-device using Apple Silicon, and generates markdown transcripts with flagged moments. No cloud processing, no accounts, and no meeting bots are required. The app stays out of the way until summoned with a keystroke, works over any conferencing app (Zoom, Teams, Meet, Slack), and allows users to mark moments mid-call with a simple keyboard shortcut.
