# EchoMind

EchoMind is a personal AI that listens to your conversations, transcribes them using Whisper, and then allows you to recall, summarize, or interact with past conversations using Zonos for lifelike responses.

## Features

- **Live Conversation Logging**: Records and transcribes conversations
- **AI-Powered Recall & Summarization**: Search through past conversations 
- **Voice-based Search**: Retrieve relevant clips from past conversations
- **Speech-Enhanced Note-Taking**: Transcribe and structure spoken thoughts
- **Memory Playback Mode**: Summarize conversations in a natural voice

## Installation

1. Clone this repository
2. Install the required dependencies:
   ```
   pip install -r requirements.txt
   ```
3. Download the pre-trained models (this happens automatically on first run but may take time)
4. Create an `assets` folder and place a sample voice file named `default_voice.wav` in it

## Usage

1. Start the Flask server:
   ```
   python app.py
   ```
2. Open your web browser and navigate to `http://localhost:5000`
3. Use the interface to record conversations, search past transcripts, and generate speech responses

## Privacy

EchoMind is designed with privacy in mind. All processing occurs locally on your device, and conversation data is stored on your system.
