    Man that Apple Watch strap is GORGEOUS. And an Apple Watch app is a great idea for this!

    But I just can’t bring myself to try out ANOTHER meeting notetaker app. The space just feels so commoditised. How different will this be to Fireflies? Or the six dozen others?

    Getting that strap would absolutely work as a bribe though. I love it…

    Granola terrifies me. It’s highly capable at summarisation, and seems to be free. What’s the catch? Generally speaking, if something is free then my attention or my data tends to be the product – and when that thing runs in the background on my Mac, has access to my microphone, my calendar data and my private meeting notes, that is potentially very scary indeed.

    I'd love something like this for the Apple Watch but with local (iPhone) or self-hosted processing using whisper/parakeet/etc.

    > phone calls

    (I can't try right now)

    Does it record phone calls and then transcribes? Does it announce itself on the call?

    Edit: I quickly installed the app, seems like you become the MITM, where you call the other party. Interesting solution.

    pretty dope product - but who are these things made for ?

    if most companies are forcing people to attend meetings in person - are people recording in-person meetings ?

      > are people recording in-person meetings

      Yes, even if only for the AI summaries it generates, it saves lots of time.

      Only thing is that with a company this is nearly always on enterprise managed software like Google Meet or Zoom, not personal software. Maybe this is good for independent consultants meeting in person.

    how bad does the app burn battery life for your watch?

      I've been beta testing it and it seems like it's not bad for battery life at all, works like a charm
