It would help to tweak the marketing a bit around recording "everything you say." Is the mic always on? Is it always recording in the background? Is it just for Zoom/Video Conf meetings? Because the first impression I get is that of a scary Black Mirror episode.

Yea my first impression when reading the landing page was also that this is exactly a Black Mirror episode: "The Entire History of You": https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2089050/

You are right, it's a bit too aspirational right now. The "everything you say" part is just for Zoom meetings right now. Once we implement local transcription with OpenAI Whisper then I think it makes sense to expand beyond meetings to things like YouTube videos, Podcasts, Audiobooks, or anything else you might want to search by "what you've heard".
