Steno v0.7.1

Linux alpha

  • Debian/Ubuntu packages and an AppImage bring microphone and system-audio recording to Linux. System audio requires PipeWire. Without it, recording uses the microphone only.
  • Linux packages are unsigned and do not update automatically. Install new versions manually.
  • The bundled Ollama runs CPU-only summarisation, as in the Windows alpha.
  • AppImage users must install libportaudio2 separately.
  • For GPU-accelerated summaries, install and run Ollama separately with a supported GPU and driver. Then open Settings > AI > Private Server, enter http://127.0.0.1:11434, and choose a model available on that server.
  • Channel labels distinguish you from other participants. Acoustic multi-speaker identification remains macOS-only.

Fixes and improvements

  • Repeated clicks on the folder-creation button no longer create duplicate sidebar folders, and an error is shown when a folder cannot be created. (#536)
  • Parakeet model downloads now show actual progress and distinguish downloading from model preparation. (#536)
  • On Windows and Linux, the available live transcript is used when ONNX batch transcription successfully reads less than half of the recording. (#471)
  • A recording that fails to start no longer leaves a stuck "Recording" entry in the meetings list. (#529)
  • Weekday and month names now match the English interface. Times keep the system's 12/24-hour clock preference. (#530)

Website

  • The website and README now use the StenoAI name, and the Government & Defence pages have been expanded. (#525, #535)

Thanks to our contributors

Downloads

The .zip and .yml assets below are used by the in-app auto-updater - no need to download them manually.

First Time Setup

  1. Download the DMG
  2. Install by dragging Steno to Applications
  3. Launch app - setup wizard runs automatically
  4. Grant microphone permissions when prompted
  5. Start recording meetings!

Requirements

  • Apple Silicon Mac (M1 or later) - Intel Macs are not supported (since v0.4.0)
  • macOS 14.4 (Sonoma) or later
  • Internet connection for initial setup
  • Microphone access permissions

Intel Mac users

Steno is Apple Silicon only (since v0.4.0). Intel users should stay on v0.3.8, the last release supporting Intel Macs. Auto-update on existing Intel installs is gated and will not offer newer versions to those machines.
