AI meeting assistant.
You talk. I'll handle the rest.

Recording only happens with your explicit permission. Before you record, Kai reminds you to make sure everyone has given their consent, and hands you a ready-to-paste line you can drop into the chat. Your transcripts, summaries, and action items are private to your account, and you decide what to share: you can post a read-only link to a meeting (it shows the summary, action items, and full transcript) or keep it to yourself. You can delete any meeting you no longer want to keep.

Yes. Kai writes a brief for each meeting on its own, hours before it starts, and refreshes it shortly before the call. The brief opens with the meeting’s purpose, then what came up in past meetings with the same people, the email threads still open, and what Kai remembers about them. It runs in the background, so you don’t need Kai open, and you can ask for a fresh one at any time with Update now.

Yes. On a Mac, Kai’s notch at the top of the screen shows it’s taking notes, and one click opens the live transcript. When you commit to something out loud, like building a deck before Thursday, Kai catches it as a task in the notch. From there you can hand it to Claude with Do it with Claude: Kai writes the prompt from the meeting, and the work starts before the call ends.

Yes. Kai captures action items whether you’re the host or a participant, because it works from your own audio, not the host’s controls. It writes up the commitments it hears, yours and your team’s, split into what’s assigned to you and to others, for you to review.

Kai works on Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams, and really on any call, because it captures the call audio itself rather than plugging into each platform. No bot joins and other participants install nothing. The desktop app captures the whole conversation, your mic plus the other side; in the browser, Kai captures your microphone. Action items come out of the call for you to review, then flow into your tasks.

Botless meeting recording captures audio and generates transcripts without adding a visible bot participant to the call. Unlike tools that show a named bot in the meeting gallery (like “Otter.ai” or “Fathom”), botless recording is invisible to other participants. This preserves the natural conversation dynamic while still capturing everything, so you get structured meeting notes and action items without the social friction.

Kai captures your Zoom, Google Meet, or Microsoft Teams calls without a bot in the room. It transcribes the conversation, pulls out each commitment with an assignee and due date where the call makes them clear, and lists them under the meeting’s summary. You accept or dismiss each one, and accepted action items move to your Kai tasks with the meeting linked. Each task has a Do it with Claude button that hands the work to Claude with the meeting as context.

Action items in a meeting are specific commitments, tasks, or deliverables that participants agree to complete after the call. They include a task description, an assignee, a due date, and context from the discussion. The problem is that meeting action items are often lost in notes or forgotten entirely, which is why automatic extraction with tools like Kai matters.
