Parrot, an open-source Mac meeting recorder, ships 0.24.2
What happened
On September 30, 2026, Parrot released version 0.24.2. The open-source Mac meeting recorder adds a real-time Copilot that suggests things during a call based on local documents, and it detects the call language automatically. According to the report, audio, transcription, speaker recognition and document indexing run on-device by default, with cloud transcription only when the user turns it on. Copilot can use a local Ollama model or bring-your-own-key cloud models such as Claude, OpenAI and Gemini. The report covers only this version's features and does not mention earlier versions or follow-up.
