Talk in Arabic, English, or both. Echo hands back what matters. Echo listens to your meetings, calls and lectures, remembers every word, and gives you the summary, the decisions and the to-dos. So you can stay in the conversation, not in your notes. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap to start at the top of a meeting, a lecture or a quick thought. 2. Put your phone down and join the conversation. 3. When you stop, Echo hands back a short summary of what was said and decided, to-dos pulled from the conversation, and the full transcript with timestamps, so you can jump to any moment. BUILT FOR ARABIC AND ENGLISH Speak Arabic, English, or both in the same sentence. Echo understands Gulf, Levantine, Egyptian and Maghrebi dialects as well as Modern Standard Arabic, and the whole app works in Arabic and English. ASK ECHO Ask anything about a conversation, like "What did we decide about pricing?", and get answers drawn from what was actually said. FOR YOUR WORK AND YOUR STUDIES Client meetings, team check-ins, interviews, lectures, study groups. Choose a template (meeting minutes, client meeting, lecture notes, interview and more) and keep clients, classes and projects apart in folders.
