Organizational Memory
OM1 automatically learns who owns what, how projects connect, and how decisions flow. Meeting insights are woven into a living organizational knowledge base spanning all your tools.
Transcribes and stores individual meetings. No cross-tool memory or organizational context layer.
Meeting Intelligence
Transcripts in 30 seconds, summaries in 1-2 minutes. Meetings auto-feed into OM1, connecting insights to customers, projects, and teams. Cross-meeting pattern recognition surfaces trends automatically.
Transcription with AI-generated summaries, action items, and topic tracking. Each meeting processed independently with no cross-meeting analysis.
Cross-App Workflows
Chains actions across tools in one step. Meeting action items auto-create Jira tickets, update Confluence, post Slack summaries, and log changes in Salesforce, all informed by organizational context.
Integrates with CRMs and project tools via native connectors and Zapier. Requires manual review and AI credits (limited on lower tiers) for each meeting export.
Automated Reports & Summaries
