Jamie

Bot-free capture on your device

Jamie records on your Mac or Windows computer instead of sending a bot into the call, so it works with any online meeting platform. The phone app records in-person meetings.

Notes, transcripts and tasks

Each meeting produces AI notes, a transcript and detected tasks. Speaker recognition remembers voices, and transcription covers 99+ languages on every plan.

Ask Jamie

A chat assistant that answers questions about your meetings. It is included on every plan, including Free, and is also available in the mobile app.

Custom templates and vocabulary

Templates set the structure of your notes: 1 on Free, 3 on Plus and unlimited from Pro. Custom vocabulary lists hold 50 terms, or 100 on Team.

EU hosting and audio deletion

Jamie says data stays in the EU, audio is deleted after transcription and customer content is never used to train models. It lists ISO 27001 and GDPR compliance.

Integrations, API and MCP

Notes can be sent to Notion, Google Docs and OneNote. Pro and Team add Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Attio and Asana, plus API, webhooks and MCP access for Claude and ChatGPT.

Spellar AI

Local, bot-free recording

Records the audio of your device on a Mac, iPhone or iPad, so nothing joins the call or notifies attendees. It works with Zoom, Google Meet, Teams and Webex, and in person on an iPhone.

Choice of AI model

GPT, Claude, Gemini and Perplexity models are included in Pro and can be switched per meeting, per template or per question. You can also supply your own API key.

Opt-in server transcription

Server-side AI transcription is off by default and enabled per meeting, or transcription can run on the device with a built-in model. The pricing page lists 50+ languages.

Configurable audio retention

Audio is kept in an encrypted vault for a period you choose, from 1 hour up to always, or it can be set to device-only so that it does not leave your machine.

Templates, recaps and AI chat

Summary templates are written as natural-language prompts. Weekly and monthly recaps summarize across meetings, and an AI chat answers questions about them without a usage cap.

Integrations, API and MCP

Syncs with Notion, Linear and Jira in both directions and lists more than 20 native integrations. Webhooks, a public API and an MCP server are included.
