I kept losing the thread in meetings — half-listening while trying to scribble down what we actually decided, then paying a subscription to an app that quietly uploaded every conversation to servers I'd never see. Scribe is my answer to both problems.

Hit record. When you're done, Scribe transcribes the audio and writes you a summary — decisions, action items, the gist — in seconds. The recordings stay on your phone. The AI runs on a key you control. No subscription, no data hostage situation.

What it does

• Records meetings with pause, resume, and mid-conversation bookmarks.
• Transcribes them with Groq's whisper-large-v3-turbo — fast enough that it's ready by the time you've put your phone down.
• Summarizes with llama-3.3-70b into something you'd actually forward to a colleague.
• Detects the language automatically, and can translate both the transcript and the summary into whatever language you read in.
• Organizes with folders — and a single meeting can live in several at once.
• Schedules meetings right inside the app, with a start time, end time, and description.
• Reminds you twice per meeting — a heads-up 5 minutes before, and again when it starts.
• "Join now" turns a scheduled meeting into a live recording with one tap, already named for you.
• Exports clean transcripts and summaries to PDF.
• Searches across everything you've ever recorded.

What makes it different

Your audio doesn't leave your device. Recordings and transcripts are stored locally, scoped to your account. There's no cloud bucket quietly holding your conversations.

Bring your own AI key. Drop your own Groq key into Settings and you pay pennies per meeting instead of a monthly fee. Don't have one? Requests route through a Supabase Edge Function that holds the shared key server-side only — so it's never baked into the app binary where a decompiler could lift it. This was the whole reason the proxy exists: an API key shipped inside an APK is a key that's already leaked.

No calendar app required. Scheduling is entirely in-app. It behaves identically whether your phone ships with Google Calendar, Samsung Calendar, or nothing at all — a lesson learned the hard way after device_calendar returned empty data on real hardware.

              Groq API  —  Whisper + Llama

• Framework: Flutter, with provider for state (proxy providers rebind on auth changes)
• Storage: local JSON + audio files, per signed-in user
• Auth: Supabase (email/password + email OTP)
• AI: Groq — Whisper for speech, Llama for summaries
• Reminders: flutter_local_notifications + timezone, anchored to the device's real timezone

Getting started

You'll need Flutter (^3.11), a Supabase project, and a Groq API key.

git clone https://github.com/RM1338/Scribe.git
cd Scribe
flutter pub get

Create a .env in the project root — note the Groq key is deliberately not here; it's either the user's own (entered in-app) or a server-side Supabase secret:

SUPABASE_URL=https://your-project.supabase.co
SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=your-anon-key

Deploy the backend:

supabase db push --linked                 # schema
supabase functions deploy groq-transcribe # proxy: transcription
supabase functions deploy groq-chat       # proxy: summaries
supabase secrets set GROQ_API_KEY=gsk_...  # server-side only (optional if BYOK-only)

Then run it:

flutter run                  # dev
flutter build apk --release  # Android release

Screens

Screenshots land here with the first public release.

Roadmap

• Cloud sync for recordings across devices
• Speaker diarization ("who said what")
• Shareable summary links
• Web build

Fork it, branch it, open a PR. For anything sizeable, start an issue first so we can talk it through.

License

No license yet — add one (MIT is a fine default) before you want others to reuse the code.
