Briefly - Meeting notes without the bot in the room
by•
Briefly is a desktop app that automatically detects when your meeting starts and begins recording, so there’s no need to invite an AI bot into your calls. It captures the audio, generates an accurate transcript, extracts key requirements and action items, and drafts follow-up emails you can share as post-meeting notes.

Hey guys!
I’m Haris, the maker of Briefly.
I built this because I was tired of the awkward moment when an AI notetaker bot joins a call. Clients ask who it is, people feel watched, and some companies don’t allow bots at all. But taking notes manually means you’re not fully present in the conversation.
Briefly takes a different approach. It’s a desktop app that detects when your meeting starts and records automatically, with no bot joining the call. After the meeting, it gives you:
A full transcript
Key requirements and action items
A ready-to-send follow-up email for your post-meeting notes
Feedback that would help most:
Does the auto-detection work reliably with the meeting tools you use?
Which output do you find most useful: the transcript, the key requirements, or the email draft?
What’s missing that would make this part of your daily workflow?
Thanks for checking it out. I read and reply to every comment, so don’t hold back!
