ShortenItUp

What it does

Most meeting tools record what went wrong. ShortenItUp prevents it. It joins your call, keeps everyone on the agenda with real-time off-topic nudges, and checks whether a meeting even needs to happen - before it starts. Tasks get auto-assigned to Notion, Jira, or Asana the moment the call ends. Unlike Meeting N*tetakers we don't just record bad meetings. We stop them

ShortenItUp is an AI meeting attendee that brings meeting intelligence to your calls — automatic agenda, real-time moderation, and action items after every meeting.

ShortenItUp plugs into your calendar, runs the meeting, and ships tasks to your tracker. Automatically. Connects to Google Calendar, Slack, Zoom, Notion, Jira and Asana without extra setup. Choose a plan and start getting the most out of every meeting. Teams that decide fast, grow fast. Have questions? Here are the most common things teams ask before inviting ShortenItUp to theirfrom shortenitup.com

  Hello Hacker News! We've noticed that many people use Loom to record their meetings in the background, which may prompt some privacy concerns. As a solution, we've built a simple extension that notifies users about the ongoing recording of meetings (without the need for inviting a virtual participant). Additionally, this tool allows for the generation of customizable meeting notes. Let me know what you think about it!

  Trace – Offline Mac meeting transcripts you can flag mid-callJun 2026 · traceapp.info · ▲205

  I'm the developer of Trace, a non-intrusive, shortcut-driven Mac app that records and transcribes your meetings on-device. I know, another meeting transcription app. Please bear with me though, I'm confident that this is at least a little novel. I primarily built Trace for myself. I'd been using MacWhisper, but there was enough fiddling before each call that I'd forget to start it and walk out of an hour-long meeting with nothing written down. So the things I cared about most were that it's quick to activate and stays out of the way. You activate Trace by pressing a global shortcut…

  Clipto MCP▲655

  Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

  Simple algorithm and color space to generate diverse skin tones▲627

  Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
