Cue

Cue is a Mac app that lives in the notch and takes meeting notes without a bot joining the call, preps you before meetings, flags questions waiting on you, drafts follow-ups in your voice, and includes system-wide dictation.

Why it matters

For founders and salespeople who live on calls, it tracks decisions and promises as they're said and drafts the recap afterward, without a visible notetaker bot in the meeting.

Highlights

• Records what your Mac hears, so it works on any call app and no bot joins the meeting.
• Before a call it writes a short brief from your last meeting and the invite, including what you still owe people.
• During the call it captures decisions and promises, taps you when a question is waiting on you, and catches you up if you drift.
• Afterward it drafts the recap and follow-ups with dates, but never sends anything without you.
• Hold the Option key to dictate into any app; on-device dictation is free on every plan.

Worth knowing: It records meeting audio from your Mac, so check the recording-consent rules where you and the other people are. The pricing page quotes the founding price two different ways ($96 a year, and $9 instead of $12 a month).
