About The Guest List
The hottest AI storefront has a doorman. Upload your catalog and watch which products get waved in, and which get turned away. When a shopper sends an AI to buy, the agent works from a clipboard. Names with missing details get held back before you even know the shopper was there. ▋▋▋ The reasons each product was turned away are covered.
About Trace
A macOS menu-bar app that turns any conversation into a clean markdown transcript, with an optional on-device summary. Runs a local speech model entirely on your Mac, in dozens of languages. The moment is pinned to your transcript at the exact timestamp. Trace provides you with clear markdown transcripts and summaries that you can use anywhere. Either copy the markdown from Trace directly or have it place the file anywhere in your filesystem. Trace can also send files directly to Obsidian, Bear, Drafts or Things with a button press.
