Prepped before.Cued during.Written up after.

1cue watches your calendar, reads everything your team already knows about the account, and has the brief on screen before you dial. It follows the call while you talk. It files the write-up when you hang up.

macOS 14+ · free during beta · your notes stay on your Mac

T−90s · before

The brief is finished before you’ve found the meeting link.

No “generate” button and no blank box to type into. 1cue sees the meeting on your calendar, works out which account it belongs to, and builds the brief in the background. You open your laptop and it’s there.

Calendar

It knows which call this is

Matched by who’s on the invite and what domain they email from — not by guessing at the words in the title.

Mail

Every thread with this account

What was asked, what you promised, and which question has been sitting unanswered for nine days.

Your files

Notes, decks, transcripts, PDFs

Point it at a folder. Paste a page. Drop in a contract. It reads what you give it and nothing you don’t.

Your CRM

Stage, amount, close date

Read-only. 1cue is the layer you work in; Salesforce stays the system of record and nothing is written back without you.

Your product

What you actually sell

Pricing, limits, integrations, the competitor you keep losing to. The part every generic AI notetaker is missing.

Your team

What the last rep learned

Accounts are shared, so someone picking up your pipeline starts with what you knew, not with an empty CRM field.

And you can check its work. Three rules the brief never breaks:

cited

Every claim names the file it came from. Click it and you’re looking at the email, the note, or the transcript line it was drawn from.

labelled

A guess is marked as a guess. Anything 1cue worked out rather than read is tagged inference, so you never repeat it back as fact.

missing

It tells you what it doesn’t know. “Not in the record” is a section, because the gap before a renewal call is usually the thing worth asking about.

T−0 · during

A cue at minute nine beats a transcript tomorrow.

1cue follows the conversation and puts one line in front of you at the moment it’s worth something — the number you promised, the objection you’ve heard from this account before, the question nobody has answered yet. Then it goes quiet again.

A notetaker

Records the call. You read the summary tomorrow, if you read it.

1cue

Hands you the thing you needed at the second you needed it, and stays quiet the rest of the time.

A notetaker

Transcribes what everyone said.

1cue

Tracks what nobody answered, and what you just committed to out loud.

A notetaker

Generic objection handling, pulled from the internet.

1cue

Your pricing, your integration limits, your competitor — because it was set up knowing what you sell.

What that looks like over twenty-two minutes:

03:12

Raj asked about uptime. 99.9% contractual, 99.97% trailing twelve. Last quarter’s incident was 41 minutes, region-scoped.

08:40

You said “we can probably do that by the 20th”. That’s a commitment — it’ll be in the write-up.

14:05

This is the partial-file retry question from 1 Sept, asked a different way. Still unanswered.

21:30

Jane hasn’t mentioned the finance committee. It meets on the 15th and she needs pricing in writing first.

T+2m · after

The write-up is filed before you’ve closed the window.

Not a transcript and not a wall of bullet points. What changed, what you promised, what happens next — in the shape a human would have written it if they had the time, which they never do.

What happened

Renewal is moving but gated on finance. Jane will not take it to committee without written pricing, and the committee meets 15 Sept. Raj pushed hard on reliability — his objection is shaped by Meridian Rx, not by anything we’ve done.

You committed to

  • Written pricing to Jane by 20 Sept — said on the call at 08:40.
  • An answer on partial-file retries. Asked 1 Sept, asked again today, still open.
  • A single-site pilot scoped before the committee meets.

Changed since last time

  • Close date still 30 Nov, but the real gate is now 15 Sept.
  • Raj moved from silent to engaged — and sceptical.
  • New name on the call: Dana Wu, procurement. Not in the CRM.

Worth knowing

Nobody has said a number out loud yet. The first one said will anchor the whole negotiation.

It saves as a plain file you own, and — when you connect a CRM — offers to push the summary and the next step. You approve it; it never writes on its own.

Why the brief is any good

It knows what you sell, not just who you’re selling to.

Every tool in this category models the buyer. Almost none of them model the thing you’re selling — so they can tell you Jane replied on Tuesday, but not that what she’s asking for is the one thing your integration can’t do yet.

Set up once

Your product is a real object

Pricing, packaging, limits, integrations, proof points, and the competitors you actually run into. You enter it once when you set up, not every time you ask.

Multi-product

Two lines, two briefs

Sell more than one thing and the briefs stay separate. Each deal names its product, so the right one shows up without you picking it.

Handover

Someone else can pick it up

Everything a rep learns lands in the shared record. When an account changes hands, the next person starts where the last one stopped.

What it plugs into

It reads your sources. It doesn’t replace them.

Connect what you already use. Everything read-only until you say otherwise — 1cue is where you work, not another place to maintain.

Straight answers

The questions people ask first.

Mostly about where the data goes. Fair.

Does it replace our CRM?No, and it doesn’t want to. Salesforce stays the system of record. 1cue reads from it and — only when you approve — writes a summary back. Read-only by default.
Is my data training a model?No. Your calls, notes and accounts are never used to train anything, by us or by the model provider. That’s contractual, not a preference setting.
Where does it live?Your workspace syncs to your organisation’s account so a teammate can pick up an account. Files you point it at stay on your Mac — it reads them locally and sends only the few lines it needs.
Can my manager read my calls?They can see accounts shared with the team, the same as in your CRM. Personal notes stay personal. There is no silent manager view.
Does the other side know?For live cues 1cue listens through your microphone and speakers, and you announce it the way you would any recorder. Consent is your call and your responsibility — we won’t pretend it isn’t.
What if I’m offline?Briefs you’ve already got stay readable on the plane. New ones need a connection. Nothing you write is lost — it syncs when you’re back.
What do I need to run it?A Mac on macOS 14 or later. It’s a real desktop app, signed and notarised by Apple, not a browser tab and not a meeting bot that joins your calls.
What does it cost?Nothing during the beta. Per-seat after, priced like a tool one rep can expense — and you’ll know the number before the beta ends.

Your next call is already in the calendar.

Tell us what you sell and who you sell it to, and we’ll send you a build. Beta is small on purpose.
