[Feature Request] Meeting summary in the same language as meeting was

[oskargargas]

Hi!

I'm using MacParakeet to record meetings in English and Polish. Right now summary, chapter breakdown and action items are always generated in English.

I'd like to be able to switch between languages and actually I'd love MacParakeet (or rather prompt provided to LLM, Claude Code in my case) to be able to recognise original (or dominant) language of the meeting and prep summary (and other postprocessing) in this exact language.

On rare occasions I'd like to regenerate summary (or other items) in a different language so I can share it with other team.

Best regards,
Oskar

Hey there, your suggestion definitely makes sense -> to introduce an option to for the LLM outputs (like summary, action items, etc) to use the same language as the meeting transcript. One complication is that Parakeet v3, while is able to transcribe many languages including Polish, the model does not provide reliable detected-language metadata. That said, we can have the LLM infer the predominant language directly from the transcript text, so this should be possible without depending on Parakeet’s metadata. I can think about this.

I think LLM language inference would be sufficient. Even now sometimes I see in summaries a pharase like "this meeting was in Polish, the team discussed..."
