Your second brain, captured by voice. MAI turns a spoken thought into organized notes, tasks, and summaries—so nothing you think slips away. Open the app, talk, and MAI transcribes, titles, summarizes, and files it for you. No typing, no formatting, no friction. HOW IT WORKS 1. Speak. Tap once and say whatever's on your mind—an idea, a to-do, a reflection, a full meeting. 2. MAI organizes. AI transcribes your voice, writes a clean summary, pulls out action items, and sorts it into the right project. 3. Recall anything. Search everything you've ever captured in plain language and pick up where you left off. BUILT FOR THE WAY YOU THINK • Voice-first — capture at the speed of speech, hands-free. • ADHD & dyslexia friendly — get the thought out before it's gone; let AI handle the structure and spelling. • Busy, multi-project minds — keep every idea, note, and meeting separated by project. • Builders & web coders — save context from your AI coding sessions and pull it back when you need it. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Record voice notes and get instant transcripts + summaries • Send a notetaker to your Google Meet, Zoom, or Teams calls for the full transcript, summary, and action items • Turn any note into tasks and track them across projects • Draft LinkedIn posts, emails, and translations from a note in one tap • Search your entire second brain in natural language • Collaborate—share projects and entries with your team • Capture anywhere—iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac WORKS WITH CLAUDE & ANY MCP AI MAI connects to Claude and other MCP-compatible AI clients. Save references straight from your AI chats, then let your AI read and write your notes, meetings, and tasks—your second brain becomes the memory layer for everything you build. WHY MAI Most notes apps make you do the work—type it, title it, tag it, file it. MAI does that for you, so the only job left is to think out loud. Start free.

BringUp remembers what you want to say to the people who matter — and helps you bring it up at the right moment. Some reminders don't need a time. They need a person. BringUp keeps a gentle, private list for each person in your life: the article you meant to send your brother, the question for your manager, the story you keep forgetting to tell your best friend. CAPTURE IN SECONDS One tap, a few words, done. Add the person it's for and get back to your day. Attach a photo, a link, or a quick voice memo when words aren't enough. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Everything you save is private to you until you explicitly choose to share a specific item with a specific person. No feeds, no followers, no pressure. SHARE WHEN YOU'RE READY Open a shared space with your partner, a friend, or a small group. Items you share appear for both of you — and they get a gentle notification that you added something to bring up, never the contents. THEY'RE THINKING OF YOU, TOO See how many people have things waiting to bring up with you. Who they are stays a mystery until you both choose to connect. BEFORE YOU MEET Connect your calendar and BringUp quietly surfaces who you're about to see, so the right things come to mind at the right time. ALSO IN BRINGUP • Sign in with Apple or a simple email code — no passwords • Use several email addresses on one account • Reminders that respect your quiet hours • Agenda mode for walking through a conversation • Export or delete your data any time PRIVACY, FOR REAL Your address book never leaves your device. If you add someone's email or phone to a person card, only an irreversible code derived from it is used for mutual matching. Notifications never contain what you wrote. Deleting your account deletes your data.
