LivingMeeting is made by one person who got tired of the same meeting.

Built audit and AI software at Workiva and AuditBoard, and leads engineering at Tellen.
Why I built this
I have spent my career building software for people whose work gets checked — audit and accounting teams at Workiva, at AuditBoard, and now at Tellen. Those teams live in meetings, and I kept watching the same hour repeat itself: a genuinely good discussion, a tidy summary in the inbox afterwards, and nothing actually moving.
The recap was never the problem. The gap was between deciding something and that decision being written down, owned, and scheduled. So I built the room I wanted to be in — an AI teammate sitting inside the meeting, making the document while we talk, putting a name on every decision, and booking the next step before anyone says goodbye.
What that means for you
- One person is accountable. Security reports, billing problems, and feature requests reach me directly, not a queue.
- We say what is true about compliance. LivingMeeting is SOC 2 in readiness, not certified, and the security overview says so plainly rather than implying a badge we do not have.
- Your meetings are not training data. Audio is discarded after transcription; the transcript and artifacts stay in your workspace until you delete them.
