How to install

1

Download

Download the .dmg file and open it.

2

Install

Drag CallScrib to your Applications folder. The agent lives in your menu bar.

3

Grant permissions

Allow Microphone and Automation access when prompted. This lets CallScrib capture audio and detect meetings.

Then just meet

Auto-detect

Join any meeting on any platform. CallScrib auto-detects when a meeting starts and begins capturing audio in the background.

Get your summary

When the meeting ends, get an AI summary with decisions, action items, and next steps — delivered to your dashboard and email.

Why CallScrib?

Works with any meeting platform

Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Slack Huddles, and any browser-based meeting. One app covers them all.

No admin required

Download and install as an individual. No IT approval, no Graph API permissions, no tenant admin consent.

Auto-detects meetings

The agent runs in your menu bar and automatically detects when a meeting starts. No buttons to press.

Live preview during meetings

Local Whisper transcription gives you a real-time preview of what's being said, right on your screen.

Same AI-powered summaries

Same AI-powered summaries as the Cloud version. Decisions, action items, and next steps — structured and ready to share.

Private by design

Audio is processed locally during the meeting. Only the final audio is sent for accurate transcription. No audio stored after processing.

Cloud vs Desktop Agent

Two ways to use CallScrib. Same AI, same pricing, different deployment.

Choose Cloud if:

Your organization uses Teams exclusively, your M365 admin can enable transcription, and you want summaries posted directly into Teams chat.

Cloud setup guide

Choose Desktop Agent if:

You use multiple meeting platforms, cannot get IT admin approval, or want to get started as an individual without waiting for org-wide deployment.

Privacy and data handling

  • Audio is captured locally via system audio loopback
  • Live preview uses on-device Whisper — nothing leaves your machine during the meeting
  • At meeting end, audio is sent to Voxtral for accurate transcription with speaker labels
  • Transcript sent to Mistral Small 4 for AI summarization (zero-retention API)
  • No audio is stored after processing — only the text transcript and summary

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it record my microphone?

The Desktop Agent captures system audio (loopback) — it hears what your speakers or headphones play. It also uses your microphone to capture your own voice for speaker separation.

Does it work with any meeting platform?

Yes. Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Slack Huddles, or any browser-based meeting. The agent detects meetings automatically by monitoring active browser tabs and running applications.

Do I need admin permissions to install?

No. The Desktop Agent runs as a regular application. No IT admin approval, no Microsoft 365 permissions, and no tenant admin consent needed.

Can I use this alongside the Cloud version?

Yes. They are independent and complementary. Use Cloud for automatic Teams coverage with summaries posted to chat, and the Desktop Agent for meetings on other platforms.

Is my audio stored after processing?

No. Audio is processed and discarded. Only the text transcript and AI summary are stored in your CallScrib account.

Want the zero-install option instead?

If your organization uses Microsoft Teams and your admin can enable transcription, the Cloud version works invisibly with no software to install.
