Meeting Summarizer

This Meeting Summarizer is a Python-based application that allows users to record meetings, transcribe the audio, and generate a summary of the conversation. The application provides a user-friendly GUI for easy interaction and supports both audio and text file inputs.

Features

• Real-Time Audio Recording: Record audio directly from your microphone.
• Speech-to-Text Transcription: Convert recorded audio into text using AssemblyAI's transcription service.
• Text Summarization: Generate concise summaries of the transcribed text using a pre-trained NLP model.
• File Upload: Upload existing audio or text files for transcription and summarization.
• User-Friendly GUI: Built with customtkinter for a modern and intuitive user interface.

Prerequisites

Before running the application, ensure you have the following installed:

• Python 3.7 or higher
• pyaudio (for audio recording)
• customtkinter (for the GUI)
• transformers (for text summarization)
• nltk (for text tokenization)
• PIL (for image handling)
• requests (for API calls)

You can install the required Python packages using pip:

pip install pyaudio customtkinter transformers nltk pillow requests
