AI notesTurn a transcript into a summary
One click turns the raw transcript into a clean, structured summary. The AI runs on your laptop by default, so it works offline and nothing is uploaded.
Pandecho's “Enhance” step rewrites the transcript into a structured summary using an on-device LLM (Qwen 3.5, sized to your machine's memory). You can also opt into summaries from your own ChatGPT subscription — the local model stays the default. Pair it with templates to match your team's format.
In the app
- Open a recorded meeting note.
- Select the Summary tab, then click the refresh / enhance icon to generate (or regenerate) the summary.
- Click Use template to apply a specific format (standup, 1-on-1, discovery, etc.).
- Switch to the Memos tab to see or edit your raw notes anytime.
- To use ChatGPT instead of the local model, connect it under Settings → Intelligence.
Ask your AI agent
Agents can read and rewrite the AI summary directly. Set this up once with the MCP guide, then try:
- Rewrite the summary of my last meeting as an email to the team.
- Update my sales-call summary to highlight objections and next steps.
- Give me a 3-bullet TL;DR of this week's meetings.
| MCP tool | What it does |
