What is PingMeBud?
PingMeBud monitors your meeting audio using local AI (Whisper) and alerts you when someone says your name or any keyword you care about.
Join a meeting, hit start, minimize, and go do deep work (or go make coffee). When a keyword is detected, you get a native macOS notification with surrounding context so you can jump back in without looking lost.
Features:
- Uses Whisper (local AI) to transcribe meeting audio purely as a means to detect keywords. Optimized for Apple Silicon
- Audio captured via ScreenCaptureKit (system audio only, not your mic).
- You can even have your speakers muted and still get alerts.
- Everything runs locally. Nothing leaves your machine.
- Transcripts live in RAM only and are wiped when you end the session or close the app.
- No cloud, no accounts, no telemetry.
- Transcripts more than 20 languages
- Try it free for 7 days, then $29 one-time
- Supports wildcard keyword matching (meet* matches "meeting", "meetings", "meetup”, *sync matches `async ).
- macOS 12.3+, Apple Silicon required. Made in Electron + React.
