No bot in the call · Your data never leaves your Mac
The AI meeting assistant that's on your side.
CallCrumb translates your meeting live, remembers what each person said, asked for and promised, suggests what to say, remembers what you promised, preps your next 1:1, sums up the meeting and stays hidden when you share your screen.
Live translation, suggested replies, summaries and a memory for every person, for anyone who works across languages and can't afford to miss a thing. Everything encrypted on your Mac, with the AI on your account. No server of ours ever sees your meetings.

The problem
Meetings in a second language take twice the energy.
You get almost everything. It's the “almost” that hurts: the deadline detail, the objection that flew by, what you yourself promised at the end of the call.
“He spoke fast and I was too embarrassed to ask him to repeat it.”
Half your brain translates while the other half tries to come up with an answer.
“What did I agree with Sarah last week again?”
Six meetings a day and no memory of who asked for what.
“The client won't allow note-taking bots in the call.”
Notetakers send a bot into your meeting and keep everything on their servers.
What CallCrumb is
A meeting copilot that runs on your Mac.
CallCrumb is a Mac app that translates your meetings live, helps you answer during the call, sums everything up at the end and remembers what each person said so you're ready for the next conversation.
It never joins the meeting and never sends anything to servers of ours: speech comes from the Meet captions in your Chrome, or from your Mac's audio in Zoom and Teams, and it's stored encrypted on your computer.
- What it solves
- Understand every word, answer with confidence and never forget a commitment again.
- Who it's for
- People who spend the day in meetings, often in a second language: developers, tech leads, managers, consultants and salespeople.
- How
- Chrome extension + Mac app + the AI on your own account (Claude or OpenAI).
- How much
- $10 a month. The translation extension has a free plan.
Before, during and after
AI that works at every moment of the meeting.
Show up prepared, run the conversation without freezing and leave with everything written down.
Understand and answer on the spot
- Sentence-by-sentence live translation, no jumping text
- Suggested replies, ready to say
- Ask the AI: “what did he say about the deadline?”
- Risk, objection and opportunity alerts
Leave with everything sorted
- Summary, decisions, risks and open questions
- Action plan: what, who, due date and the exact quote
- Each person's context updated, with evidence
- Drafts for Jira, email and calendar, created only when you click
Features
Everything you need to never miss a thing.
Real screens from the app. Names and meetings are demo data.
Live translation
Understand every sentence the moment it's said.
CallCrumb translates the meeting while people speak. Each finished sentence is translated once and stays put on screen; only the sentence in progress shows in italics until it settles.
- Original and translation together, with the speaker's name
- Glossary for product names and acronyms that shouldn't be translated
- Meeting in your own language? One click and it just transcribes
- Translation through OpenAI or a local model (Ollama), free and offline
Hidden from screen sharing
Stays on top of the meeting. Vanishes when you share your screen.
The CallCrumb window sits on top of Meet, Zoom or Teams, even in full screen, and is left out of the capture when you share your screen. You see the translation and the suggestions; the rest of the call doesn't.
- Starts as a small bar and expands when you need it
- Never steals focus from the meeting
- Shortcuts: ⌥⌘0 shows it, ⌥⌘K asks, ⌥⌘1–⌥⌘5 suggest replies
Live AI
Stuck for an answer? The AI suggests what to say.
On any line, one click gives you 2 or 3 short replies, ready to say, each with the why and the risk. And you can ask anything about the meeting without leaving it.
- Ask a question, Decline gracefully, Accept with a condition, Propose an alternative
- “Ask”: what did she say about the budget? or sum up the last 10 minutes
- Opportunity, risk, objection and commitment cards, only when worth the interruption
- Web research on a topic from the call, with sources
- After the call, ask across all your meetings: when did Sarah ask for the rollout plan?
After the call
Summary, decisions and action items in under 2 minutes.
Leave the meeting and the summary is already there. Every decision and action comes with the exact quote, so you can trust what you read.
- Overview and topics of the conversation
- Action plan with owner, due date and source; yours show up as “You”
- Risks and open questions
- Turn it into a Jira issue, an email or a calendar event, always with a preview and your confirmation
Preparation
Walk into every meeting as if you'd written everything down.
With your calendar connected, CallCrumb prepares the briefing 15 minutes before the call: who will be there, what each one tends to raise, what's still open and how to open the conversation.
- Today's and tomorrow's agenda with the people you already know
- “Next call” reminders that pop up at the right time
- Open actions from every meeting, in one place
- Search across your whole history, even encrypted
A memory for every person
Never walk into a conversation without remembering who’s who.
After every meeting, CallCrumb notes what each person pushed for, asked for, promised and worries about. On your next conversation you already know, with the exact quote each piece came from. And it all stays encrypted on your Mac.
What it keeps about each person
- Positions what they stood for on each topic
- Interests what’s behind those positions
- Concerns and objections what they tend to raise
- Commitments what they promised, what you promised, and whether it was kept
- Communication style how they usually express themselves and decide
- Common ground and friction where you agree and where you don’t
- Decision roles who they cite, who they defer to, who they side with
All encrypted on your Mac
What you know about people is the most sensitive information at work. That’s why it never goes to a server of ours.
- Every field encrypted with AES-256-GCM before it touches the disk
- One data key per company, wrapped by your master key
- Opens only for you: Touch ID and automatic lock
- Export or delete a person’s data whenever you want
How it handles that memory
Always with evidence
Every item carries the quote, the meeting, the date and a confidence level. Claims without evidence don’t get in.
You have the final say
Nothing becomes “true” on its own: you confirm, edit or discard each item. You can also add what you noticed outside the meeting.
Non-negotiable limits
The AI is forbidden from inferring or recording health, religion, politics, sexuality, ethnicity, age, family, finances or private life, even if the person talked about it. No scores, no “% chance of success”.
Preparation, not a dusty archive
The context feeds the briefing before your next call, “Plan your approach” and the suggested replies during the meeting.
Built to prepare conversations, not to evaluate people. Treat it with the same care you’d give your own 1:1 notes.
Real privacy
Your meetings stay on your Mac. Period.
There is no CallCrumb cloud. No server of ours receives speech, names, notes or analyses, and not even we can read your data.
- Field-level encryption with AES-256-GCM before anything touches the disk
- You hold the key: it lives in a file you own, outside the app, unlocked with Touch ID
- Locks itself when you step away, the screen locks or the Mac sleeps
- No audio stored; no bot in the meeting
- The AI only reads: creating anything in Jira, email or calendar needs your confirmation
- No telemetry and content-free logs
What leaves your Mac, and where it goes
Full transparency: to analyze, the AI has to read excerpts of the meeting. They only go to your account.
| When | Goes to |
|---|---|
| Live translation | OpenAI, with your key, or Ollama, on your Mac |
| Summaries, suggestions, questions | Claude or OpenAI, on your account |
| Zoom and Teams audio | Transcribed on your Mac; the audio is discarded |
| Backup | Wherever you choose, encrypted |
| CallCrumb servers | Nothing |
Use the AI you already pay for
Your subscription, your model, your control.
CallCrumb doesn't resell AI or charge per use. It works with the account you already have, so you never pay twice for the same model.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does CallCrumb rate or score people?
No. The per-person memory keeps work facts with evidence (what someone pushed for, asked for and promised) so you can prepare your next conversation. The AI is forbidden from inferring health, religion, politics, sexuality, ethnicity, age, family, finances or private life, and it gives no scores or “% chance of success”. You confirm, edit or discard every item.
Where is the data about people stored?
Only on your Mac, encrypted field by field with AES-256-GCM, with one data key per company protected by your master key. No CallCrumb server ever receives it. You can export or delete a person’s data whenever you want.
Does a bot join my meeting?
No. In Google Meet, CallCrumb reads the captions Meet itself shows in your Chrome. In Zoom, Teams and in-person meetings, it transcribes the audio on your Mac. No extra participant ever joins the call.
Do my meetings go to a CallCrumb server?
No. There is no CallCrumb cloud. Transcripts, people, notes and analyses stay on your Mac, encrypted with AES-256-GCM, and the key lives in a file you own, outside the app. To analyze, the app sends only the excerpts it needs to the AI on your own account (Claude or OpenAI).
Do I have to pay for another AI on top of the $10?
CallCrumb uses the Claude subscription you already have or your own OpenAI key. For live translation you can use OpenAI or a local model with Ollama, free and offline.
Can people see CallCrumb when I share my screen?
No. The CallCrumb window stays on top of the meeting but is left out of the capture when you share your screen.
Does it work with Zoom and Microsoft Teams?
Yes. In Google Meet, speech comes from the captions, with the speaker's name. In Zoom, Teams and in-person meetings, CallCrumb transcribes the Mac's audio on the device, without storing any audio.
Does it work on Windows?
For now the app is for Apple Silicon Macs (macOS 13 or later). The Chrome translation extension works on any system. Join the waitlist to hear when it comes to Windows.
Do I need to tell the other participants?
As with any note-taking or transcription, informing participants or getting their consent under local law is up to the user. CallCrumb never records audio and lets you turn recording off for any meeting.
How much does CallCrumb cost?
The Pro plan is $10 per month and includes the whole app. The Chrome translation extension has a free plan.
Your next meeting could be the calmest of your week.
Set it up in under 3 minutes and join your next call with translation, suggestions and memory on your side.
