Build Hedy
KINDAreplaces $12.99/mosaves $155.88/yrback to the verdict
Before step 1
you will need
- A laptop with a decent CPU or GPU for local Whisper, or an API key for hosted transcription
- An LLM API key in .env
- A virtual audio device (BlackHole on macOS, WASAPI loopback on Windows) to capture the other side of the call
- Consent from whoever you are recording, which is on you
Delivery order
Scaffold the smallest runnable application and document its commands.
done whenThe project starts from a documented command in a clean checkout.
Implement the primary data model and core workflow.
done whenThe main object can be created, read and changed end to end.
Add validation, safe failure states, and persistence.
done whenBad input is refused with a readable message and nothing is left corrupted.
Cover the critical path with automated tests.
done whenThe highest-risk behavior fails the suite when it breaks.
Exercise a clean install from the README and fix every missing step.
done whenA fresh clone reaches the first successful workflow using only the README.
That is the whole plan for Hedy. What it deliberately does not cover is below · check the gaps before you call it a replacement.
- Mobile apps that keep recording reliably when the screen is off, which is where most of these sessions actually happen
- Tuned latency: your DIY suggestions arrive a beat late, and a beat late is useless in conversation
- Speaker diarization and meeting-type presets that shape the assistant for a sales call vs a lecture vs a doctor visit
- Calendar and conferencing integrations that join and label sessions for you
- Hosted, searchable history across every session with no laptop babysitting
