Magic2 · meeting intelligence · v1.0shipping today

There’s nothing else like this.

Otter takes notes. Fireflies records audio. Granola writes a summary. Magic2 does all that — and then builds you a live mind map, generates eleven separate deliverables the moment you stop, remembers across every conversation you’ve ever had, and renders the whole thing as a magazine-quality PDF. Locally. On your own GPU.

§01 · the sixty-second pitch

Here’s what happens
in the first minute.

Most meeting tools wait until the meeting is over to do anything useful. Magic2 starts working the moment you press record — and keeps working through every second of the conversation.

  1. T+00:00

    You click record.

    Microphone permission, one prompt. The WebSocket opens to your local backend, which opens its own to WhisperLive on a GPU box on your LAN.

  2. T+00:01

    Words land on the screen.

    Transcription is live, not buffered. You see your sentence form as you finish it, with about one second of glass-to-glass latency.

  3. T+00:15

    The first nodes appear.

    qwen2.5:7b-instruct emits the first topics, decisions, risks, questions and actions. Each lands anchored to the second it was said.

  4. T+00:30

    Continuations surface.

    If this meeting is the natural sequel to one you had three weeks ago, a shooting star arcs across and the prior topics ghost in.

  5. T+01:00

    Magic2 names the meeting type.

    Design review? Vendor pitch? Customer discovery? Magic2 picks one of 26 templates and starts watching for the items each one needs.

  6. T+n.00

    Stop. The work is at the door.

    Eleven artifacts render in parallel. A smart title arrives two seconds later. Cross-meeting links score. Cmd-K opens.

§02 · the eleven

11 deliverables. One conversation.

The moment you stop the meeting, Magic2 renders eleven separate documents in parallel. Each one carries source-anchored quotes back to the moment they came from. None of these is a generic “summary”.

Executive Summary

A single page. Headline takeaway up top. Five bullet outcomes. A ‘what’s next’ line. Built for the people who didn’t attend.

executive_summary.md · A-02
★ key takeaway

The team chose REST over GraphQL for the new public API, prioritising cache simplicity and edge familiarity over query flexibility.

outcomes
  • ·Public API spec to be drafted by Friday (Lina)
  • ·Vendor scoping limited to two finalists; final cost model by May 24
  • ·Existing JWT library scheduled for deprecation across services in Q3
  • ·Open question: rate-limit policy per consumer tier — runbook due Friday
what’s next

RFC circulated by Mia early next week; consensus check at Friday standup; spec freeze before sprint cut.

legal_memo.md · A-10
⚠ disclaimer

issue

Whether the proposed indemnification clause shifts unreasonable risk to the supplier.

analysis

The clause as drafted lacks a cap, materially exceeding industry norms (typically 1–2× annual fees). Negotiating leverage suggests…

recommendation

Insert a cap at 2× ARR; carve out IP infringement to remain uncapped.

-Supplier shall indemnify Buyer for any and all losses, damages and expenses arising out of any breach.
+Supplier shall indemnify Buyer for direct losses, capped at two (2) times the annual fees paid; provided, that claims arising from third-party IP infringement shall remain uncapped.
why

Discussed at 14:32 — team raised concerns about uncapped exposure exceeding standard market terms.

§04 · anatomy of the mind map

Every dot is a moment.

The mind map isn’t decorative. Each node carries a kind, a label, a summary, a start and end timestamp, and edges to its parents. Eight node kinds cover the shape of any conversation.

§06 · 3d constellation

Every conversation,

Spin the constellation. Meetings that talk about the same things drift toward each other. Edges thicken with entity overlap, centroid similarity, and recency. Hover a star — see who, what, when, score.

We’ve looked. No other meeting tool has anything like it. Granola has a list. Otter has a list. Magic2 has a galaxy.

§07 · cmd-k semantic search

Press ⌘K. Type a phrase. Magic2 searches every transcript chunk and every map node you’ve ever recorded — with embeddings, not keywords. Find the exact quote without remembering the meeting.

§08 · the second brain at the table

Catches
what you forgot.

Magic2 listens. After about a minute it figures out what kind of meeting you’re having — a standup, a design review, a customer discovery, one of twenty-six templates — and starts watching for the items that type usually needs.

No more wrapping a standup having forgotten to ask about blockers. No more closing a design review without naming the decision. Magic2 nudges you, in the flow, before the conversation moves on.

§10 · built for

Different roles. Same conversation.

Magic2 doesn’t care what your job is — it cares what the conversation is. Six common shapes:

Product manager

Stop reconstructing decisions from Slack threads.

Magic2 emits the decision log with rationale and source quote per row. Plus action items, MVP spec, and risk register from the same conversation.

Founder

Investor updates that write themselves.

Run your update meeting, walk out with the memo. Thesis, market, team, traction, risks — structured the way LPs read it.

Engineer

Design reviews that survive past lunch.

Annotated mind map, RFC seed, action items with owners and dates. The architecture decision record that should exist.

Sales

Discovery calls that become CRM rows by 5pm.

Customer interview artifact with themes, pain points and verbatim quotes — pasted into Salesforce while the call is still warm.

Recruiter

Calibration meetings that become hiring briefs.

Role profile, must-haves, bar to clear, sample interview questions. From the same conversation that made the brief.

Legal

First-draft memo and redline while you're still on the call.

Issue / analysis / conclusion / recommendation, with the disclaimer banner you cannot remove and never want to remove.

§11 · local-first

The conversation
never leaves.

Audio streams to a WhisperLive instance on a GPU box you can see from your desk. Transcription and extraction run on a local LLM via Ollama. Vectors live in a SQLite file on your own disk. No third-party cloud touches the conversation unless you flip a switch.

§14 · frequently asked

Things people always ask.

Q01How is this different from Otter / Granola / Fireflies?+
Those tools stop at the transcript or a summary. Magic2 starts there: a live mind map of the conversation, eleven separate post-meeting deliverables, cross-meeting semantic recall, a 3D constellation of every meeting you've ever had, and a magazine-quality PDF export. None of which any other meeting tool offers.
Q02Does my audio leave my network?+
No. The default is local-first: audio streams to a WhisperLive instance on a GPU box you control. Transcription and extraction run against a local Ollama. Vectors live in a SQLite file on your disk. Nothing leaves your network unless you explicitly opt into an external integration.
Q03What if the LLM hallucinates?+
Every artifact item carries a source-anchored quote and timestamp back to the transcript. If Magic2 claims a decision was made, you can click through to the exact moment in the audio. Legal memos and contract redlines carry a hard-coded AI-generated disclaimer that the LLM cannot remove.
Q04Do I need a GPU?+
For real-time use, yes — one consumer GPU is enough. We run on a Quadro P1000 for STT and a desktop GPU for LLM. CPU-only Whisper runs at 2.6–4× realtime and works fine for batch processing recorded meetings.
Q05Is it accurate?+
qwen2.5:7b-instruct with an imperative prompt and a concrete example produces clean, structured topic / decision / risk / action extraction. The forgiving JSON parser handles every reasonable variation. For artifact generation we use the larger qwen3.5:9b where quality matters more than latency.
Q06How long is a meeting before Magic2 falls over?+
We've stress-tested four-hour meetings without degradation. The mind map is force-directed with smart pruning of low-affinity edges. Extraction batches transcripts in rolling windows so context never blows out the LLM's working set.
Q07Can I export the data?+
Yes. Magazine PDF today; DOCX, PPTX, and direct Slack / Linear push are queued in the v1.1 milestone. SQLite is the source of truth — point any tool at it.
Q08Who's behind it?+
Solo developer. Built over a single, very-online quarter. Designed against the frustration of recording six meetings a day and walking out with no artifact except an inbox of stale Slack threads.
