01 — WHY DAHLIA

A meeting is more useful
after it ends.

Dahlia keeps the conversation as structured, local meeting memory—not another document to forget. Summarize it, ask it questions, or bring it into the AI tools where your work already happens.

02 — FEATURES

One meeting memory.
Three ways it works.

Capture the facts, understand what matters, and put that knowledge back to work.

01

Capture the whole meeting.

Join from the menu bar, record microphone and system audio together, and keep the words and meaningful screen changes in sync.

One-click joinOn-device speechSmart screenshots
02

Ask, don’t hunt.

Summarize a meeting or ask the in-app AI what was decided, why it mattered, and what happens next.

03

Bring meetings to your AI.

Connect Claude Code or Codex through MCP. Search meetings and read stored summaries or confirmed transcripts without granting write access.

Everything around it, already handled.

CALENDAR

From event to recording.

See today’s agenda in the menu bar, then open the meeting and start recording together.

Calendar agendaJoin + recordQuick controls
VISUAL CONTEXT

Save what changed.

Dahlia saves meaningful changes from the screen or window you choose, in sync with the conversation.

ORGANIZE

Keep it useful.

Use projects and tags, then export to Markdown, Obsidian, or Google Drive when you need to share.

03 — ONE MEMORY, TWO WAYS IN

Ask in Dahlia.
Continue in your tools.

The in-app agent and MCP clients work from the same local meeting database, with access limited to the Vault you choose.

04 — HOW IT WORKS

From live conversation
to working context.

  1. 1
    CAPTURE

    Stay in the meeting

    Join from the menu bar and start recording in one click. Dahlia keeps the audio, transcript, and selected visual context aligned.

  2. 2
    UNDERSTAND

    Review or ask

    Generate a structured summary, or ask the in-app agent for decisions, background, and follow-ups across meetings in the selected Vault.

  3. 3
    ACT

    Carry the context forward

    Export the note, or let Claude Code and Codex read the relevant meetings through Vault-scoped, read-only MCP access.

05 — LOCAL BY DESIGN

Your meeting memory
stays yours.

Dahlia stores meetings in a local SQLite database and processes speech on your Mac. AI receives context only when you ask a question or generate a summary. External clients get read-only access to the Vault you explicitly select.

Local meeting database

Transcripts, summaries, screenshots, and notes are organized in Dahlia on your Mac.

On-device transcription

Apple Speech turns conversation into text locally while you record.

Scoped, read-only access

MCP exposes only meeting search, stored summaries, and confirmed original transcripts in the selected Vault.
