VividAI is a powerful Chrome extension that transforms your browser into an intelligent meeting assistant. Whether you're on Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams, VividAI captures the audio, transcribes it in real-time using OpenAI's Whisper, and generates concise, actionable summaries using advanced LLMs.

🚀 Features

• 🎙️ Universal Recording: Works on Google Meet, Zoom, Webex, Microsoft Teams, and WhatsApp Web.
• ⚡ Real-time Transcription: Powered by OpenAI Whisper for industry-leading accuracy.
• 📝 Smart Summaries: Automatically generates meeting titles, key takeaways, decisions, and action items.
• 🌍 Multi-Language: Auto-detects languages and provides English translations on the fly.
• 🤖 Flexible AI: Bring your own key! Supports OpenAI, Google Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, and local Ollama models.
• 📊 Audio Visualizer: Beautiful real-time audio wave visualization during recording.
• 💾 Local Privacy: Your API keys and recordings are stored locally in your browser.

🏆 Why VividAI?
