Tractus 0.4.1

2026-10-21 · GitHub release

Minutes tab and menu bar popover.

Tractus turns recordings and memos into text on your Mac, then summarizes, searches and answers questions about them. New in 0.4.1: a Minutes tab and a menu bar popover.

Minutes tab. Recording notes now have Summary · Minutes · Ask AI · Memo on the right. Create minutes lays out attendees, a discussion summary table, notes per topic (undecided topics are marked Needs more discussion), next steps and the next meeting, ready to paste into a wiki. Owners, teams and due dates are kept only when someone said them, and numbers that don't match the conversation get Check number. Double-click a line to edit it; click No owner yet or No due date to fill it in. Copy gives the full minutes; Copy short version gives a few lines to send in chat right after the meeting.
Menu bar popover. Click the menu bar icon for a small panel with the recording time and buttons to start, bookmark, pause and stop. Right-click still opens the menu with recent notes. (Contributed by @workdd)
The Meeting notes type moved out of the summary menu into the Minutes tab; older ones show there as the old format.
Security: updated the bundled root certificates (certifi), removing emSign roots with compromised intermediate CA keys.
Install: open the DMG and drag Tractus.app to Applications; you need brew install ffmpeg. The build isn't notarized yet — use System Settings › Privacy & Security › Open Anyway on first launch. Apple Silicon, macOS 14.4+.
