Trace

Every conversation, centered on your context. Clear communication is what moves work forward β€” but the context behind every conversation slips away fast. Trace captures it and keeps it, so nothing gets lost in translation. YOUR CONVERSATIONS, ALWAYS REMEMBERED Hit record and talk naturally β€” Trace captures every word in real time across meetings, calls, brainstorms, interviews, and voice notes. Pause whenever you need to and pick up right where you left off. One tap to start, one tap to end. LASTING CONTEXT, NOT NOTES Every conversation becomes context you keep β€” discussion points, decisions, and the things people committed to, all held in one place and always there to return to. No half-typed notes, no re-listening, nothing slipping through. JUST ASK Trace builds a personal knowledge graph from everything you've captured. Ask in plain English β€” "What did we decide about pricing?" or "When did Sarah commit to the rewrite?" β€” and Trace pulls the answer with links back to the source conversation. A HOME FOR EVERY CONVERSATION Group related conversations into Spaces: client work, 1-on-1s, recurring standups, research interviews. Scope Ask Trace to a single Space when you want focused answers. CAPTURE WITHOUT FRICTION β€’ One-tap recording, no setup β€’ Background-safe β€” keeps going if you switch apps β€’ Live Activity timer in the Dynamic Island β€’ Start a capture from your Action Button, Siri, or a notification β€’ Edit any AI-generated title or bullet inline β€” they're starting points, not constraints WHO IT'S FOR Founders, PMs, engineers, consultants, researchers, sales β€” anyone whose work depends on remembering what got said, decided, or promised across many conversations.
