Mid-call, Sarah asks where you are on SOC 2. Aside’s pill, under the notch, shows your prepared answer straight away. When you reply, a goal dot fills in and the next move appears: ask who signs off above Sarah. Afterwards, the meeting page has the summary, goals and next steps.

The Aside window after the Acme discovery call: a summary, two of three goals reached, next steps and a follow-up email.

Everything from the call, written down.

Aside records on your Mac and writes up every call. Guidance is there when you want it.

Aside’s pill: the recording light, one of three goal dots filled, and the next move: Ask who signs off above Sarah. An answer card: Before anything goes to procurement, where are you on SOC 2? Type I is done. Type II lands in March.

Guidance, when you want it

Your goals are dots that fill in. When they ask, your answer is already there.

How guidance works

No bot in the call

Aside hears your mic and your Mac’s sound. Nobody gets a join request, in any call app.

How it records
Who spoke in the Acme call, with each person’s share of the talking. Aside suggests Speaker 3 is Priya, because she was called by name at 12:46 and is named in your plan, and shows Dev Mehta as recognised by voice, with a Not Dev? button.

Speaker names

Aside suggests who’s speaking from clues in the call, like a name said aloud, and shows you why. Voices you’ve confirmed before are named for you, and one click undoes it.

Privacy

Your audio stays on your Mac.

Your audio never leaves your Mac, Aside sends only the text needed to help you, and nothing is used to train AI models.

Recorded and transcribed on your Mac

An on-device speech model turns the call into text. Audio is never uploaded.

Text only, when needed

Guidance and write-ups send your plan and the part of the transcript they need.

Never used for training

Nothing you record or write is used to train AI models, ours or anyone else’s.
