Field notes

What we're learning

Engineering decisions, product tradeoffs, and what it actually takes to ship a real-time meeting AI. Pain and gain, written down as we go.

What's coming

One per major feature. Pain that motivated the build, the engineering decisions made under fire, the outcome.

Voice-tracked teleprompter: fighting the audio pipeline

Latency budgets, ONNX choices, and the UX of never losing your place mid-sentence.

Engineering

The timescale bug that silently killed our coaching engine

Date.now() vs meeting-relative ms. A one-line fix that unblocked an entire feature.

Postmortem

Smart model routing: what 5–10× cost savings actually look like

The math. Which tasks need Claude, which can run on local Llama, and how we pick in 50ms.

Product

Privacy by architecture, not by promise

What it takes to keep conversations private when the product depends on understanding them.

Design

Get a ping when we publish

Low volume. No marketing fluff. Just the engineering and product posts.
