Ellis - AI notes for in-person meetings
by•
Ellis is an AI notetaker for in-person meetings. Record your meeting, get a clean transcript with each speaker identified, then ask anything — what was decided, what you missed, how it went. No laptop. No extra hardware. Just your iPhone (or Apple Watch).

How well does the speaker identification actually work when people are talking over each other or interrupting? That's usually where these tools fall apart for me.

@sedadedemen Interruptions will always be hard in in-person meetings. For virtual it's much easier because they have different audio input.
How well does the speaker identification work in a noisy cafe or group setting with people talking over each other?

@aminekorkf8bw give it a try for free.
How does the speaker identification actually work in practice, especially when people are talking over each other in a real meeting?

@zelihay93u thanks with a question. There are multiple steps under the hood.
Users can record a voice profile during onboarding and from settings (voice enrollment).
When a recording finishes, the app uses a diarization process using AssemblyAI, and returns a transcript with multiple speakers.
The app then uses your voice enrollment to find a best match which gets highlighted in the UI
You can then assign yourself as a specific speaker or add names to others if needed.
The decision to make it work on just an iPhone or Apple Watch is genuinely clever. No extra hardware means it'll actually get used in real meetings instead of sitting in a drawer.

@hanifekrkir2f Thanks. The benefit of hardware is to alleviate the friction of starting a recording but that means you need to purchase another hardware devise. Benefit of including it in your iOS infrastructure is that you don't need to
