# Mina

> Most AI meeting tools are glorified note-takers, listening quietly and handing you a summary once everyone has hung up. Mina wants to be a participant instead. It joins the call as an active assistant that can respond in the moment, pull context from your other tools, generate outputs, and actually execute tasks while the conversation is still happening. The pitch makes the most sense for calls with a job to do. On a sales call it might surface the right pricing detail as the question comes up, in an interview it could track which topics you have covered, and in a standup it might file the follow-ups before anyone forgets them. The shift is from remembering a meeting afterward to acting on it during, which is a genuinely different product than transcription. Whether that feels helpful or intrusive will depend on execution and on how comfortable people are with an AI that speaks up mid-meeting. But the direction is worth watching, because most of the value of a meeting evaporates in the gap between the conversation and the work that should follow it, and that gap is exactly what Mina is aiming at.
