Clark Wiz is a menu bar application for macOS. Its purpose is to turn a meeting you attend into a written note without you having to take one.
It records the meeting audio on your Mac, transcribes it, writes a summary, and saves the result as a Google Doc in your own Google Drive. It reads your Google Calendar to work out which meeting is happening so it can name the note correctly.
That is the whole app. It is free, it is not a service with an account, and there is no company behind it: it is a personal project by Eduardo Wallach, distributed from this site.
It runs on your machine
A fresh install needs no API key and no account with anyone but Google. Transcription runs on Whisper locally; the summary runs on a local Qwen model. Both ship as part of the app and download their weights on first use. Nothing you say is sent anywhere for processing.
If you would rather use a cloud model, you can pick one in Config → AI Providers: Mistral for transcription, Claude for the summary. That is your choice, and you supply your own API key, which is stored in the macOS Keychain. Until you do that, the cloud providers are simply not used.
What it asks Google for
Three permissions, and nothing else:
- Read your calendar — to see which meeting is happening and name the note after it.
- Create and edit Google Docs — to write the note.
- Access files it creates in your Drive — the notes and audio it files, and nothing else. It cannot see the rest of your Drive.
Requirements
macOS 13 or later. Signed and notarized with Developer ID, so it opens without a Gatekeeper warning.
The app itself is a small download. The local models are larger and arrive on demand: about 835 MB for Whisper and about 4.8 GB for Qwen. You only need them if you use the local providers, which is the default.
Two apps, one name
Clark Wiz is the version for everyone. There is a separate internal build used inside Kura Biotech with different permissions. They keep their settings, tokens and recordings in different folders, so having both installed causes no conflict.
