The meeting recorder does three things. It writes a live transcript while people talk. Its Ask tab lets you ask about the meeting, or hand off work, without stopping the recording. And when the meeting ends, Linger files what it leaves behind: the transcript, any work you asked for, and an update to your personal memory. Meeting recording needs a Soniox key on your server. See Enable voice. To talk to an agent instead of typing, see Voice Mode.
A meeting recorder with a live transcript and an Ask tab, and the results in the Another Me chat.

Record a meeting, ask about it, and send follow-ups to Another Me.

​
How do you record a meeting?

Start a recording, and the transcript appears as people talk. It separates speakers. Your browser must reach Linger on localhost or over HTTPS. Browsers allow the microphone only there. To record from another computer, put an HTTPS proxy in front of Linger. See Serve other computers on your network.

​
How do you use Ask during a meeting?

The Ask tab has one box for both questions and requests. Type what you want, and Linger works out which it is.
  • Ask a question. For example, “What did we decide about the launch date?” The answer uses what had been said when you asked, so it stays the same as the meeting goes on.
  • Hand off work. For example, “Draft a follow-up email to Lena.” Another Me gets the request with the meeting so far, because it did not hear the meeting. It starts the work as a background Task. See Task delegation.
Only you see what you write in Ask. Asking never pauses or changes the recording.

​
What happens after the meeting?

When the meeting ends, the recording and its transcript land in your chat with Another Me, and so do the results of any work you handed off.
  • Library. The Meetings tab lists your recordings. Each one opens read-only. Deleting a meeting only hides it from your own list.
  • Minutes. Ask Another Me to turn the transcript into minutes. The minutes use only the transcript. Each chapter and quote cites its time range, and an owner or date that nobody said stays “to be confirmed”.
  • Personal memory. Soon after the meeting, your personal memory gets a Session page for it, and the pages it touched are updated.
  • Follow-ups. To-dos and plans from the meeting become follow-up items, and Another Me plans when to remind you. See Proactive Another Me.
