Notta?

KINDAYou can build the valuable core, but the established product has meaningful operational complexity. Pick one narrow promise for v1.

BUILD FIRST

One specific customer type and one primary use case
A vertical slice that completes the main job without manual workarounds
Visible limits, review steps, and a fallback when an external dependency fails

LEAVE FOR LATER

Broad third-party integrations
High-scale collaboration, syncing, and permissions
Automation that can cause harm without human review

What this tool actually does.

Checked 2026-09-06

Notta is a commercial AI meeting notetaker and audio/video transcription service available as a web app, mobile app, Chrome extension, and a bot/assistant you can invite to live meetings. It converts live speech or uploaded files (MP3, MP4, WAV, AVI; paste links from YouTube, Google Drive, Dropbox) into searchable transcripts in 58 languages with up to 98% claimed accuracy, auto-labels speakers, and supports real-time transcription/translation of two languages. After transcription, one-click AI summaries extract key points, decisions, and action items; users can submit unlimited custom AI prompts, save reusable summary templates, translate transcripts into 40+ languages, and auto-generate deliverables like slides and infographics. Collaboration includes link sharing, comments/mentions, and exports to TXT, DOCX, PDF, SRT, XLSX, MP3, or Notion; integrations include Slack, Salesforce, and Z

RESEARCHED BUILD PROMPT

Give this to your coding agent.

Build 'EchoNotes', an original open-source web app that recreates Notta's core workflow: get meeting audio/video in via live mic capture, file upload, or pasted URL; produce a searchable transcript with speaker labels; generate AI meeting notes (key points, decisions, action items) from one-click summary templates plus free-form user prompts; then let users edit, share via link, and export results. User-facing requirements: an upload page for MP3/MP4/WAV with progress, a live-recording session, URL import, a transcript viewer with speaker labels and inline editing, full-text search across a user's transcripts, an AI notes pane that runs saved templates or custom prompts, a template-library CRUD, shareable read-only links, exports (TXT, MD, PDF, SRT, VTT), and simple auth with per-meeting access. Technical requirements: React/Next.js frontend with a transcript editor/timeline; a Node or Python backend API for auth, metadata, and exports; object storage for media; a job queue (e.g., Redis/BullMQ) feeding a speech-to-text service (local Whisper or a hosted STT API via configurable keys) for diarized transcription, and an OpenAI-compatible chat API for summary/prompt generation, with websockets or polling streaming live transcript updates. Implement a clean, original UI with standard design tokens; do not copy Notta's branding, logo, colors, copy, or layout. Out of scope for v1: mobile/native apps, browser extension, a bot that joins Zoom/Teams, Salesforce/Notion integrations, multi-language translation, slide/infographic generation, enterprise SSO, and billing/multi-tenancy. Deliver a README covering setup (env vars for STT/LLM keys, storage, queue), local run steps, and honest limitations: accuracy depends on audio quality, diarization can mislabel speakers, provider rate/cost limits apply, and large files take time to process.
