Quill is the AI meeting assistant you can trust. It records, transcribes, and summarizes your meetings, and stores them on your device so they're yours, accessible anytime, even years later.
With Quill on your side, you can engage fully in conversations and trust that no details get dropped.
What makes Quill different
Three things set Quill apart from other meeting tools.
1. Trust: your meetings, on your device
- Audio and transcripts stay on your computer by default. No upload, no server-side recording.
- You choose which AI processes your notes: local models, your own API key, private inference servers, or Quill's cloud.
- Sharing is opt-in, per-meeting, and end-to-end encrypted.
2. Accuracy: capture every detail
- High-quality local transcription that holds up across accents and meeting formats.
- Speaker recognition that learns who's who across your meetings over time.
- Multilingual support for mixed-language conversations.
- Learns custom terms from replacements in notes for industry terms, names, and acronyms.
- Search across every meeting you've ever recorded.
3. Customization & integration: fits your workflow
- Templates tailored to your meetings, eg 1:1s, client sessions, sales calls, board meetings.
- Meeting types that auto-apply the right template.
- Structured outputs and integrations into the tools you already use.
How it works
1. Install Quill on your Mac or Windows computer.
2. Quill detects your upcoming calendar meetings (or you press Record).
3. Audio is captured and transcribed locally on your device.
4. Notes, action items, speakers, and the full transcript are ready within minutes, and stored on your device.
5. You can read, edit, search, or selectively share them any time.
Working with a team? Shared spaces are opt-in: choose which meetings flow into a shared view and which stay private to you.
