Built by a diplomat · Designed for multilateral work
From long multilateral meetings to evidence-linked briefs.
BlueMinutes is a local-first macOS workbench shaped by firsthand diplomatic practice and designed around United Nations and other multilateral meeting workflows. Record or import multilingual meetings, review transcripts and speakers, structure positions and reservations, and produce concise, traceable briefing notes.
Independent open-source project. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the United Nations, any government, or OpenAI.

The diplomatic workflow
From the floor to a brief that survives review.
BlueMinutes treats transcription as one stage in a review chain—not the final product and never an opaque summary you are expected to trust.
Transcribe and structure
Keep original speech, interpretation, translation, speakers, and represented entities distinct and reviewable.
Confirm and brief
Review positions, proposals, decisions, reservations, and conditions before exporting evidence-linked briefing sections.
More than speech-to-text
Diplomatic nuance stays attached.
BlueMinutes keeps the identity, capacity, language path, evidence, and review state behind a statement visible throughout the work.
- Speaker, represented entity, and speaking capacity
- Positions, commitments, reservations, and conditions
- Exact evidence references, revisions, and human confirmation
In development and on the roadmap
Your AI access. Official-source research. One review surface.
These MVP directions matter to BlueMinutes, but they are separated from the capabilities available in the current source release.
Codex with an eligible ChatGPT plan
A planned official-runtime connection for bounded, user-selected text—without selling a second pool of BlueMinutes AI credits or sending raw meeting audio to Codex.
Ask BlueMinutes
Discuss selected transcript passages and documents through a scoped meeting assistant while keeping evidence references and consequential output under human review.
Official UN source research
Planned UN Digital Library metadata search, on-demand ODS/UNDOCS retrieval, and available UN Transcript import—subject to source terms and explicit user action.
ChatGPT subscriptions and OpenAI API billing are separate. BlueMinutes is independent and does not imply United Nations or OpenAI endorsement.
Free throughout public beta and 1.0
A simple plan, before there is a price.
Future annual billing is designed around a standard $50 license, with a planned $35 early-supporter price. Sandbox checkout exists for testing only and cannot create a live charge.
