Always-on AI meeting notetaker with a self-erasing screen replay
Bubbles keeps a rolling, encrypted replay of your screen and audio on your Mac. Each new minute deletes the oldest, so nothing accumulates and nothing uploads until you save a clip.
Type a few fragments during the call and Bubbles' AI turns the transcript plus your jottings into a structured summary, owner-tagged action items and a full transcript.
The desktop app runs locally, so nothing appears in the participant list. A separate, optional notetaker can join scheduled meetings from your calendar on supported platforms.
Scroll back through the replay, trim exactly the moment that matters and share a link. Only the trimmed clip is uploaded - never the surrounding replay.
One API key for hundreds of AI models from every major provider
Six hundred plus models for text, image, video, audio, transcription, embeddings, and reranking behind one OpenAI-compatible API.
Requests are rerouted to another provider on outages or rate limits by default, so you don't write custom retry logic.
The auto-router selects a model and provider per request using live marketplace performance and pricing data.
Track spend, tokens, and usage per model, provider, and team member in one place, including bring-your-own-key usage.
