What it does
Omi captures what you see on screen and the conversations you have, and writes them down as they happen. It then makes summaries and lists of action items.
It also gives you an AI chat that its makers say remembers everything you've seen and heard, so you can ask about past meetings or ideas.
It works on desktop computers and phones, and with Omi's own wearable devices, such as a necklace and smart glasses, which are sold separately. The hardware designs are open source too.
Who it's for
Busy professionals who want automatic notes from meetings and conversations, and developers who want to build apps for the Omi platform.
Can I use it without coding?
Yes. There are ready-made apps for Mac, iPhone and Android. Building from source is only needed for developers. New to this? Start here.
