Rice is built on your Mac, so macOS doesn't block it (no xattr). Running it again updates Rice.

New

  • Memory across meetings: Rice remembers what each person and company asked for, promised and decided. Before a call, "What to remember" shows it with links to the source meeting. Browse people and companies in the new Memory page.
  • Follow-ups that chase themselves: every next step from every meeting in one list (overdue, today, this week), with owner and due date. A daily notification for what is due, and the next meeting closes what was done. Synced with the checkboxes in your notes; can be sent to macOS Reminders.
  • Local models: use Ollama, LM Studio, llama.cpp, MLX, Jan or any OpenAI-compatible server on your Mac (localhost only).
  • Fully local mode: nothing leaves your Mac; every network feature is blocked, with a "100% local" badge.
  • Privacy receipt: each meeting shows what left your computer, to which AI and when (metadata only).
  • Consent reminder: a one-click notice to paste in the call chat when you start recording.
  • Personal data redaction: CPF, CNPJ, cards, e-mails and phone numbers are masked before reaching the AI and restored locally.
  • Retention per folder: move old audio or meetings to the Trash automatically.
  • Voice signatures are never saved (speaker identification keeps them in memory only).
  • Sidebar works in short windows: all items keep their names; only the menu scrolls when space is tight.

Other ways to install

  • macOS app: Rice-0.4.0-arm64.dmg, then xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Rice.app. Needs brew install whisper.cpp.
  • Windows (preview): Rice-Setup-0.4.0-x64.exe (SmartScreen: More info › Run anyway).
  • Existing clones: ./update.sh (or git pull && ./install.sh if your clone predates 0.2.0).
