FOMO - AI-Powered Meeting Assistant

💡 Inspiration

We've all been in meetings where important details slip through the cracks. Action items get forgotten, decisions aren't documented, and hours of discussion vanish into thin air. We built FOMO to solve this - a brutally simple, AI-powered meeting assistant that captures everything so you never miss out (Fear Of Missing Out).

🎯 What it does

FOMO is a desktop app that records meetings, transcribes them in real-time, and extracts action items automatically using AI.

Key Features:

🎙️ System Audio Capture - Records your meetings (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet)
📝 Smart Transcription - Converts speech to text with speaker identification
🤖 AI Action Items - Automatically detects and extracts tasks
📊 Meeting Summaries - Generates key decisions, next steps, and blockers
📥 Export & Share - Download as Markdown, JSON, or Plain Text
🎨 Brutalist Design - Clean, minimal, black & white interface

🛠️ How we built it

Tech Stack:

Frontend: Electron + React + TypeScript + Tailwind CSS
State: Zustand for state management
Backend: Flask (Python) REST API
AI: AssemblyAI for transcription, Anthropic Claude for analysis

🚧 Challenges we ran into

1. System Audio Capture

Browser APIs limited to tab audio initially
Solution: Used python sys recorder to record system audio
