Okay — top priority for Q3 is shipping on-device transcription to GA.

Agreed. The Acme pilot is the other big one — they want a kickoff next week.

I’ll have the roadmap doc finalized by Friday so we can commit to dates.

Perfect. Let’s also review the latency benchmarks next sync — we’re targeting a 30% cut.

Fully private, fully yours

Everything stays on your device — your recordings, your notes, and the AI you already pay for, like Claude Code or Codex.

Your recordings, transcripts, and notes are saved as plain files on your device — not the cloud.

Pick the AI behind your summaries — on your device, through Claude Code or Codex, or the cloud.

Transcribing locallyon-device model

Speech-to-text happens right on your device. Your voice never touches the cloud.
