A lot of meeting recorders, productivity tools, and focus apps try to detect meetings, but the results are often unreliable. Some apps pop up “You’re in a meeting” suggestions even when nothing is happening. I wanted something that works consistently and is easy for developers to integrate.
The engine is written in Rust and exposed to Node/Electron via napi-rs. It runs a lightweight background loop and uses two tiers: 1. Native app detection (Zoom, Teams, Webex) • process detection • meeting-related network activity 2. Browser meeting detection (Google Meet, Teams Web, Zoom Web, Webex Web) • reads browser tabs via AppleScript • validates meeting URL patterns • supports Chrome, Safari, and Edge
It exposes a very simple JS API:
init(); onMeetingStart((_, d) => console.log("Meeting started:", d.appName)); onMeetingEnd(() => console.log("Meeting ended")); console.log(isMeetingActive());
Would love feedback, especially from anyone building recorders, focus apps, calendar tools, etc. Windows + Linux support coming next.
