How Pauta records and transcribes meetings without a bot
Then it groups conversations by project, so you can ask about any of them.
Detect
Pauta notices when a meeting starts. Or you turn it on whenever you want, for videos and any system audio.
Transcribe
Microphone or system audio, transcribed while the conversation happens. Everything stays on your Mac, without touching a server.
Knows who spoke
Pauta learns each person's voice and recognizes it in later meetings. Fix a name once and it remembers.
Summarize
The AI you pick turns the conversation into a note with decisions and tasks.
Organizes into projects
Each recording lands in the right project, and the project rolls every conversation on that subject into one summary.
Answers across meetings
Ask what has been decided and the AI answers from every recording in the project.
