What they are
Real-time AI desktop/meeting assistant (sees screen + hears audio): live answers, transcription, auto notes; rebranding from 'cheat on everything' to an AI meeting notetaker + follow-ups. ~$20M from a16z.
Why it matters to us
Moving from live in-call answers toward meeting notes + follow-up emails, selling to sales/enterprise — same meeting-to-output space. But its value is in-the-moment, single-meeting: no cross-meeting goal memory or governed PM execution. Risk is brand/distribution, not our moat.
Trajectory ▶ steady
Pivoted from a 'cheat' overlay to AI meeting notes + follow-up emails (Nov 2025) and added an enterprise/sales tier.
