Walk in knowing what happened last time.
For recurring meetings, Narada writes a short brief from the previous occurrence — what was decided, what's still open, what to bring up. Open the day, scan the cards, walk in ready.
Non-recurring meetings stay quiet — no brief, no noise. The brief shows up only when there's a real previous call to learn from.

1:1 with Maya
Brief
Maya's been heads-down on the onboarding redesign; check in on workload and the Figma → Xcode handoff. She mentioned wanting to pair on the audio waveform animation — agree on a slot.
Follow-up from last 1:1:
• Status of the new design tokens doc
• Did the design system PR land?
Keep it light, no agenda needed.

Design Review — Onboarding v3
Brief
Quick prep — last design crit (Aug 6) flagged the empty-state on step 2 as confusing; Maya owns the redesign and is presenting v3 today.
Open threads:
• Should we keep the calendar-permission step or fold it into Settings?
• Hannah suggested a skip-and-record path for users who don't want auto-detection.
• Pricing was supposed to be wired in by today — confirm with Daniel before the call.
Goal of the meeting: lock the v3 flow so we can ship to TestFlight by Friday.
The bot in the call is a tax on the conversation.
The minute a bot joins, the meeting changes.
People hesitate the moment a bot joins. Narada records your Mac the way QuickTime does — mic and the other side, captured natively. Nothing in the participant list, no consent screen, no surprises.

Narada
Records system audio + mic locally. Nothing joins your call. You tell participants you're recording — the app keeps a reminder in the recording window so it doesn't slip.
No bot — records any call on your Mac.
Auto-records from your calendar, or start manually any time.
The recording becomes a screen you can actually read.
Title, summary, relevance for your role, a coloured timeline of what mattered, a clickable transcript, and the action items pulled from what was actually said — exactly what you'd see in the app.

Your summary
Team converged on a sequence rather than a single Q3 bet: auto-summary v2 ships first (foundation work mostly done), team workspaces second (unlocks team-tier pricing), calendar-free recording moves to early Q4. Maya pushed back on workspaces scope — Daniel committed to circulating an MVP scope writeup by Friday.

1:12Daniel
We've got the entity-extraction work mostly landed; auto-summary v2 is realistically two sprints from a beta build.
5:08Ivan
So the ordering is auto-summary first because the foundation's in place. Workspaces second?
9:22Daniel
If we don't ship workspaces this quarter we're going to keep losing the team accounts — that's tens of thousands of MRR walking out the door.
16:30Maya
Every time we've estimated this kind of cross-cutting work we've been off by 30 to 50 percent. I just want us to be honest about that.
29:10Daniel
Fair points. Let me write up an MVP scope by Friday and we can pressure-test it before next week's sync.
38:05Ivan
What about calendar-free recording? Where does that land?
41:30Daniel
Let's just punt calendar-free to Q4. We don't have signal that users want it yet, and the Q3 plate is full.
Action Items
- Pressure-test the workspaces MVP scope at next week's sync
- Update Q3 OKR doc with auto-summary → workspaces → calendar-free sequence
Key Decisions
Q3 sequence locked: auto-summary v2 → team workspaces → calendar-free recording (latter pushed to Q4). Workspaces scope remains contested — Maya's 30–50% estimation slippage concern is unresolved until Daniel circulates the MVP cut on Friday. You own the OKR doc update reflecting the new sequence.

Ask anything. Get the moment, not the essay.
Every answer cites the meeting and the timecode. Click and you're at 28:14 in the recording, with the transcript scrolled to the line.
Works across every recording on your Mac — a local semantic index that always returns the quote and the file, not a paraphrase.
What did we decide about team workspaces on the Aurora project? I think we discussed it a few weeks back.
Three weeks ago, at the Q3 Product Sync, the team locked it in for September — second after auto-summary v2.
- Maya pushed back on landing it in Q3 at all
- Daniel's argument won — it unlocks team-tier pricing
- Scope still open — Daniel owes an MVP doc by Friday
"If we don't ship workspaces this quarter we're going to keep losing the team accounts — that's tens of thousands of MRR."
"I'll write up the MVP scope by Friday and we can pressure-test it before next week's sync."
Privacy
Your audio stays yours.
Recordings, transcripts, summaries, and briefs land in a plain folder of your choice — .m4a, .txt, .md, .json. You own the files.
Point Hazel or Shortcuts at them. Hand the folder to Claude Code or Codex as project context. Pipe them into your own scripts. We don't even need to be running — you're the boss of your own files.
Your audio, your model
Run it on your laptop. Or don't.
Transcription is already local. If you know your way around Ollama or LM Studio, point Narada at it — the whole pipeline runs offline and we literally can't see your data. If you'd rather not babysit a model, subscribe and we host the inference for you.
MCP for AI tools
Plug your meetings into Claude. Or ChatGPT.
Narada ships a local MCP server. Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex CLI, ChatGPT connectors — anything that speaks MCP can read your meetings, follow-ups, and briefs straight from your Mac.
No upload. No middleman. Same privacy posture as the rest of the app — the index stays local, your AI tool of choice pulls from it.
Pick how AI works for you.
Recording and transcripts are always free. AI turns them into summaries, follow-ups, briefs, and chat — pick what fits.

Or $5.83/mo billed annually ($69.99/yr). 3-day free trial.
- Smart summaries with decisions and owners
- Follow-ups: I owe / owed to me
- Meeting chat with citations

Honest answers to the things people ask us.
Does Narada need a bot in my Zoom / Meet / Teams?
No. Narada captures system audio and your microphone natively on macOS — the same way QuickTime does. Nothing joins the participant list. It works with Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Webex, and even non-meeting calls.
Where does my audio actually go?
The audio file stays in a folder you pick on your Mac. The app does not upload raw audio. If you use Pro AI, transcripts and summaries are processed via our cloud — but you can switch to your own OpenAI key or a fully local LLM in Settings.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep every recording, transcript, and summary. They're plain files. The app keeps recording on the Free tier — you just stop getting AI-generated summaries, follow-ups, and chat.
Do I need to tell the other side I'm recording?
Yes — we strongly recommend it, and in many jurisdictions it's required by law. Recording rules vary widely, and it's your responsibility to comply with the laws that apply to you and your participants. Narada keeps a reminder in the recording window every time you record, so it doesn't slip your mind.
How accurate is the transcription on accents and noisy calls?
Transcription runs locally on your Mac and handles accents and overlapping speech well. Because the audio never leaves your laptop, accuracy doesn't depend on a network round-trip.
Does it work for in-person meetings?
Yes. Hit Record from the menu bar — Narada captures your mic and skips system audio. Same summaries, decisions, and follow-ups afterward.
Speaks 25 European languages — all on your Mac.
Transcription runs locally on your Mac. The model is bundled in the app and processes your audio in the background — nothing in the recording leaves your laptop to become text.
