Tested it on my Android phone and I'm very impressed. There is a latency issue where no text is processed until you stop recording, and then there is a several second delay until the transcription appears. I'm sure there are ways to do segment processing to overcome this. It is a great 1.0 version. I think when it gets to 3.1.1 it will be a winner.

Thanks! I keep a Notion doc of ideas anytime I see something cool on the internet or think of something and just keep refining it

Really interesting concept. I like the idea of just rambling to your phone and it'll automatically figure out your daily schedule/todo items 😊

Congrats! I tested NotesGPT in Portuguese and the transcription was very good. The summary and action items are in English, which I don't see as a problem because they make sense. A very cool project

are there any limitations on the recording time? I created a recording ~30 min and didn't get any summary or action items. Did I do something wrong or the recording was too long?

Sorry to hear that! It should be able to handle up to 30-45 minutes since that's how much context the LLM model I'm using can handle to summarize it so you may have just hit the limit. I can add support for longer voice notes later on too!

Thanks for your great article! It surely is one of the best up to date resource to learn about different puzzles on making LLM based applications.

Just one question, why using Whisper AI through Replicate and not directly use it from OpenAI?
