Built for the realities of consulting work

Consultants live in client calls. A Day-3 progress check with the CFO. A Steerco where the partner expects you to surface a Bain framework on cue. A 90-minute exec interview that you have to synthesize into a slide before tomorrow’s case team meeting. The work isn’t the deck — it’s being sharp in the room. That’s where most generic AI tools fail you.

Why bot-based notetakers don’t fit the engagement model

Most client MSAs and per-engagement NDAs treat third-party recording as a confidentiality breach. The moment Otter, Fathom, or Fireflies joins as a visible participant, the call has a fourth party — your client’s legal team didn’t sign off on that. Cloud transcription pushes raw client audio to a vendor you cannot fully audit, which fails most firm IT reviews on day one. Even outside compliance, watching an AI bot pop into a $1.5M strategy engagement signals you couldn’t handle the meeting on your own.

Whisper App takes a different approach. It doesn’t join the meeting at all — it captures audio at the OS level on your laptop and stays hidden from screen capture using documented OS APIs. No bot, no participant entry, no third-party recording on a vendor’s servers, nothing in the meeting platform’s audit trail.

The workflow it actually supports

• Exec interviews: while a director walks you through their org chart, Whisper App surfaces the equivalent benchmark from a past engagement — pulled from your local transcript archive, not a cloud database.
• Steerco prep: a searchable local record of every client call so far in the engagement. Pull the exact phrasing the CEO used about pricing back in week one when the partner asks why your hypothesis shifted.
• Proposal calls: live competitor pricing and scope references during a three-way RFP discussion, surfaced silently in the corner of your screen.
• Client kickoff: automatic action items captured during the meeting, ready to paste into your engagement tracker the second the call ends — no five-minute lag while a cloud bot “processes the recording.”

Local-only by default

Every transcript and AI response lives in a local SQLite file on your device (Whisper.db). Delete the file and the data is gone. There is no cloud sync of meeting content, which means no discovery exposure tied to a SaaS vendor and nothing for a client’s legal team to subpoena from us.

Pricing for billable workloads

The free tier handles a few client calls a week. If you’re billing 40+ hours of meetings, the €9.99/mo Pro plan removes limits and unlocks faster models — see pricing. Free forever, no credit card to start.
