Cluely is a desktop and mobile assistant that listens to your meetings, interviews, and sales calls and surfaces real-time notes and answers as an on-screen overlay. It markets an 'undetectable' mode that hides the overlay from screen-sharing software so other participants can't see it. The startup launched in April 2025 and raised $15M from Andreessen Horowitz, repositioning from its viral 'cheat on everything' origins into a mainstream meeting assistant.

    Granola

    AI notepad for back-to-back meetings — captures your Mac's audio, no meeting bot.

    A desktop notepad that captures your computer's audio during calls and enhances your rough notes into structured summaries afterward. Because it records the system's own audio rather than dispatching a bot into the meeting, there's no visible notetaker for participants. Includes shared folders, custom templates, and an AI chat over your notes.

    Worth knowing

    Raised a $125M Series C in March 2026 at a $1.5B valuation, up from $250M under a year earlier as it pushed into enterprise.
