The Augmented AI - Real-time AI insights for meetings without interruptions

The Augmented AI is the first AI that thinks alongside you in real time. While you're in a meeting, lecture, or interview, it's already generating insights, counterarguments, and the things you're missing, before you stop to ask. Every other AI tool today is reactive: you stop, switch context, type a prompt, lose your place. We drive that interaction cost to zero. Today: Mac app, runs invisibly across any tool. Next: persistent memory and mobile.

Hey Product Hunt 👋 I'm Santiago, CTO and cofounder of The Augmented AI, building this with Shuqi (CEO). The idea came a month ago in a system design meeting. The team kept looping, reinventing patterns we already knew. The problem wasn't intelligence. It was timing. Every useful insight already existed in our heads or in an LLM, but accessing them meant stopping the conversation, switching context, and prompting. We call this interaction cost. It's why AI today doesn't actually augment your thinking. It interrupts it. I built a rough MVP that same day, shared it with friends. It worked. In four weeks of nights and weekends, we shipped a real Mac app: a real-time tree of insights, counterarguments, follow-ups, surfaced while you're still talking. Runs invisibly across any tool. Zoom, Meet, lectures, whatever you're in. We use it ourselves every day in real meetings. We'd love your feedback, especially on: Where it surfaces something useful you didn't expect. Where it misses the moment. What "interaction cost" looks like in your workflow. Thanks for checking it out 🙏
