## What it is

I built Pendant as an independent workspace for the recordings from my Limitless Pendant. The Mac app and local browser dashboard bring device controls, an audio library and local transcription into one place. Both use the same local service and recording library.

## What it does

Import or sync recordings, listen back, search transcripts, add notes and export the result. Speech recognition and optional speaker labelling run on the computer after the models have been downloaded. Speaker names belong to individual recordings.

## Current status

An active Apple Silicon app, with the service packaged inside the Mac app. It is for local use and has no public installer. The browser version also runs locally; neither option is a hosted service. Device and Mac compatibility remain limited to the setups tested so far.
