Meeting Assistant Overhaul

We have overhauled a large portion of the Meeting Assistant to make it smaller, faster, and more efficient across all devices and platforms.

• Now supports Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA GPUs for a 92% smaller binary and 15% faster processing times.

  • If you already have the NVIDIA GPU binary installed, you can safely delete it if you want. It will still work and is backwards compatible.

• Support for Developer API for transcription on audio (POST: /v1/transcription/transcribe)

• Meeting Assistant context window overflow handling is much better now - so small models can summarize longer meetings.

• Introduction of Basic Speaker Identification for 60% better summarizes from any audio.

• Dual channel stero recordings for meetings now - leading to 80% better speaker identification in "Full Diarization" mode.

Improvements

• Linux AppImage now 91% smaller in size and caches Ollama engine downloads for faster startup times.
• Meeting Assistant title fix on meetings post-summary now auto-updates in UI
• AgentFLow variable highlight so its clear what is and is not a valid variable
• "Copy chat link" in UI to quickly re-open a chat in the desktop app via deeplinking.
