AI notetaker that records, transcribes and summarizes meetings — bot-free
Capture meetings with a visible notetaker or completely bot-free, so you can record your way and keep participants comfortable.
Get accurate transcripts, concise summaries and extracted to-dos delivered right after each call.
Search and ask questions across your entire meeting history to surface decisions, commitments and patterns.
Notes, insights and follow-ups flow automatically into Slack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Notion, Asana and other tools.

Write code with precision, hand bigger jobs to agents, and keep working from anywhere
Agents open the repository, form a plan, edit multiple files and explain the changes so you can review each diff before accepting it. You can also run several agents in parallel to push a backlog forward.
Point the editor at Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, Microsoft or open-weight models, or bring your own key. Pick the Copilot, Claude or Codex harness that matches how you like to work.
JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML and CSS work out of the box, and Marketplace extensions add IntelliSense, linting, refactoring and debuggers for Python, Java, C++, Go, Rust and more.
Integrated terminal, source control, debugger, testing, Jupyter notebooks, an integrated browser and Dev Containers all live in one window, so you stay close to the code.
