About
Stay in the conversation. Know the context. Undertone explains acronyms, decodes project names and surfaces relevant facts while you're on a call, using context from your team's Slack, Notion and Jira. Afterwards, get a clear recap, your follow-ups and a briefing for the next meeting. Calls are transcribed on your Mac.
