    Timeline

    See every turn at a glance with dates, speakers, and one-click jumps back to the original Gmail message.

  • Act

    Open actions

    Decisions, deadlines, and follow-ups surface in a dedicated list so nothing important hides in paragraph twelve.

  • Share

    Export anywhere

    Copy as Markdown, download PDF or Word, and share a polished summary with your team in seconds.
