FAQs

How does Char ensure my data privacy?

Char is designed with privacy as a priority. It operates locally, meaning your meeting audio, transcripts, and notes are stored as files directly on your computer. It does not use your data for training AI models, and you decide if your data ever leaves your device, offering full control over your information.

Can I use Char with my own AI models or keys?

Yes, Char supports a 'Bring Your Own Key' (BYOK) approach, allowing you to use your preferred speech-to-text providers and AI models like Claude, Cursor, Gemini, or Azure-hosted GPT. It also includes built-in support for local models, providing flexibility and vendor independence.

What makes Char different from other AI note-takers?

Char distinguishes itself by using plain markdown files instead of proprietary databases, capturing system audio without meeting bots, and offering your choice of AI provider to avoid vendor lock-in. Its open-source nature also allows for transparency, customization, and community contributions.
