Meeting notes Teams won't flag
Blurt is a bot-free meeting recorder and dictation app for Windows. It records Teams, Zoom and Meet from your own PC, so nothing waits in the lobby, transcribes locally, and syncs with your Mac and Linux machines. IT can deploy it with MSI or winget.

Is there a MacWhisper
for Windows?
MacWhisper is Mac-only. On Windows, Blurt gives you the same local-first transcription, plus bot-free meeting notes, dictation and sync with any Mac or Linux machine you also use.

Feels like it
belongs on your PC.
Native installers, the system tray, your default audio devices, and a hotkey that works in every app, including Office and your browser.
Never flagged in Teams
Teams now tags notetaker bots in the lobby. Blurt never joins, so there's nothing to flag, admit or explain.
Hears the call, cleanly
Records system audio through Windows' own audio loopback, mixed with your microphone. No virtual cables, no drivers.
Dictate into anything
Hold Right Ctrl in Outlook, Word, Slack or the browser, talk, and clean text lands at your cursor. Change the key anytime.
Uses your hardware
Local transcription on your CPU, or much faster on a supported NVIDIA or other GPU. Works offline on a plane.
Deployable by IT
Silent MSI installs, winget, and admin settings to turn Blurt Cloud off across a Team workspace.
Works with Mac and Linux colleagues
Shared folders and one archive across every operating system, so mixed teams don't need three different tools.
Roll it out
without a ticket queue.
Everything your team needs to approve and deploy Blurt across a fleet of Windows PCs.
Per-machine install with no prompts.
msiexec /i Blurt-1.0.0-x64.msi /qnFor scripted and self-service installs.
winget install Blurt.BlurtTurn Blurt Cloud off, enforce consent notices, set retention on Team plans.
A security overview PDF and a completed questionnaire on request.
Work laptop on Windows,
Mac at home?
It's the most common setup we see, and the one nobody else handles well. Record on your work PC; your notes are on your Mac by the time you're home. Encrypted, and only if you turn sync on.
