Record your thoughts. We piece them together to help you develop your ideas. THE PROBLEM You capture thoughts to build on them. But, your notes keep growing while your ideas feel stuck. AI chats help you explore your idea, but picking it up later often means digging through old threads and explaining the background again. Too much effort goes into catching up on your own thinking before you can take the idea further. _________ CONVERSATUM We’re building a better creative engine. Record your thoughts, however messy or unfinished. We’ll keep track of your ideas as they evolve and offer ways you might add to or improve them. Conversatum transcribes your thoughts, identifies the different questions you’re exploring, and brings your thinking together around each idea from across recordings. As you capture more thoughts and conversations, your ideas update automatically. You can then use suggested prompts to explore a question, challenge your thinking, or create from your idea. Each prompt draws on the context already gathered, so you don’t have to explain the background again. Feature Highlights: - High Quality Transcription - Format, Comment, Edit, and Add Images to your Transcripts - Multi-Speaker Recognition - Automatic Organization of Thoughts into Ideas - Suggested AI Analysis and Creation _________ Enjoy the Thinking, Skip the Cleanup: Download Now! _________ Need Help?

Canary turns any meeting into a live, scrolling summary. No note-taking, no scrubbing a recording afterward. Put your phone on the table and Canary listens, transcribing and summarizing in real time. Glance down any moment to see what's being discussed right now, what happened in the last 2 or 5 minutes, or a running summary of the whole meeting, each at the level of detail you want. REAL-TIME, NOT AFTER-THE-FACT Most meeting tools hand you a transcript when it's over. Canary summarizes while you're still in the room, so you stay present instead of scribbling notes, and catch up instantly if your attention drifts. FOUR TIME WINDOWS, THREE DETAIL LEVELS Now - the last 30 seconds, for "wait, what did they just say?" 2 min / 5 min - recent context without the noise Full - the running summary of the entire meeting Toggle Short, Medium, or Detailed on any of them. ACTION ITEMS AND DECISIONS, AUTOMATICALLY Canary flags concrete action items and key decisions as they're made, then bundles them into a clean recap when the meeting ends. YOUR MEETINGS, REVISITED Every meeting is saved with its summary, action items, and full transcript so you can search back later. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Audio is streamed in short chunks for transcription and never written to disk. Once a chunk becomes text, the audio is gone. Canary Pro unlocks unlimited meetings and longer recordings. Free to try. Terms of Use (EULA): https://askcanary.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://askcanary.com/privacy
