What can Kimiko help me with?

Kimiko brings your written notes, meeting conversations, and next steps into one private workspace. Write and polish notes, capture meetings, and ask AI about a single note or a whole project. Review suggested tasks and keep them connected to the conversation. Dictation in other apps is included too.

See Kimiko in action

Does a bot join my calls?

No. Kimiko captures your microphone and computer audio, so it works alongside apps like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and Google Meet without adding another participant. It can detect a call and offer to start taking notes.

Can Kimiko recognize speakers in future meetings?

Yes. Name a speaker and select “Remember this voice.” With the recognition model downloaded and enough speech captured, Kimiko saves a voice signature in its encrypted database on your computer. When that voice matches in a later call, Kimiko suggests the saved name. You confirm matches by default; automatic naming is optional. Recognition is experimental and can be wrong, and saved voices can be deleted in Settings. Live speaker labels distinguish up to eight remote voices at a time; your microphone is labeled “You.”

See the remembered-voice example

Can I use Kimiko for notes without recording a meeting?

Yes. Create a standalone note and write with headings, lists, checklists, tables, and images. Use “Polish my notes” when you want a clearer version, while keeping the original. File notes alongside meetings in a project and bring them into AI chat as context.

Explore note-taking

Can I dictate into other apps?

Yes. Use your dictation shortcut, say what you want to write, and Kimiko puts the text where you’re typing. Use it for emails, messages, documents, and more. Optional formatting helps turn spoken thoughts into cleaner writing.

What can I ask AI about my notes and meetings?

Ask about one meeting, selected notes, a project, or your library. Compare decisions across calls, find open questions, draft a follow-up email, or ask what has been agreed during a meeting in progress. Transcript citations let you check the original conversation. Answers depend on the available context and can be wrong, so review them before relying on them.

Can I export my notes?

Yes. Export your summary, notes, or transcript as a PDF, Word document, or Markdown file. Exporting your existing work remains available after your trial or subscription ends.

Try Kimiko with your next meeting.
