Where your words go.
People are talking in a room. Some of that text leaves the room. Here is exactly which parts, and the one question we can't answer yet.
How it hears you
It reads the meeting's own captions. Not a microphone — there is no microphone. The app never opens a real camera or mic device; the face is an emoji drawn onto a canvas and published as a virtual camera.
Two consequences worth knowing: captions off means it hears nothing, and captions in the wrong language means it hears wrong words and answers confidently. The second is worse than the first.
What stays on the machine, and what doesn't
We can show you that caption text and board history are sent to the service. We cannot yet tell you how long they are kept, who can reach them, or how to have them deleted. That is a real gap and we would rather name it than write a reassuring paragraph we can't stand behind. It is being resolved with the service operator; this page gets a visible revision when it is.
Recording
Off by default, and the setting is not exposed in the app's own preferences UI. When it is switched on mid-call the agent announces it out loud. A call with no video produces no recording file at all, and the raw per-person tracks are deleted after they're merged unless a second, also-off-by-default setting keeps them.
What it can't do
- It cannot lurk. It joins with a visible name and face and a human has to admit it. There is no invisible mode and we won't build one.
- It cannot control your computer. It can drive the page it is presenting in its own window. Nothing else.
- It does not write a transcript file, and there is no automatic summariser. If you were told to expect either, that was wrong.
The open risk, stated plainly
Anyone in the room can talk to the agent, and it may act on what they say. There is no authorized-speaker model. It also has whatever access the operator's session has. Treat an agent in a call the way you'd treat an unlocked laptop on the table.
How to check our work
The app is open source. Every behavioural claim on this site is checked against that source before it ships, and anything we could not verify is either marked or absent — read it yourself. When we get something wrong we correct it here, visibly, with the date. We do not quietly edit.
