Here is what we decided in the product review:
- One onboarding flow, not three.
- Sketch the first screen before Thursday.
- Maya sends the copy on Friday.
CONVOLENS is a desktop app that listens to a live conversation and gives you a transcript, fact checks, follow-up questions and visuals as it happens. It is available on Mac, Windows, and Linux. Lenses work before you record, while you talk and after you stop. The live ones stream into the Feed: use what helps and let the rest scroll by.
Live in the Feed
Back to All lensesAny conversation, written live as it happens.
Nothing joins the call: CONVOLENS hears your microphone and the audio playing on your computer, and every live lens works from this transcript. Copy it from History, export it as SRT subtitles, or ask Chat about any line.
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| The live meeting transcript | Meetings |
| The exact words for quotes | Customer interviews |
| The talk as text for the recap | Talks and presentations |
| The record for the write-up | Workshops |
Good to know: CONVOLENS keeps the transcript, not the audio, and doesn’t label who said what.

Back to All lensesClaims checked live, against the web or your own tools.
It checks quotes too (“Didn’t say that”, “Walked it back”), and claims about your own work go to your connected tools, with links to the records. Explanation and the source count on each card show how it got there.
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| A verdict and its reasoning for each claim, with the sources it found | Podcasts |
| Claims checked with sources | Meetings |
| Claims in answers, with sources | Moderated Q&A |
Good to know: Opinions, questions and proposals don’t become cards, and a card with no sources says so.

Back to All lensesThe question a great interviewer would ask next.
Each suggestion is Clarifying, Deep Dive or Challenge, tied to a phrase, name or number just said, with a line on why it matters. Ask it in your own words or let it pass.
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| Follow-up questions grounded in the last exchange | Podcasts |
| The follow-up behind a short answer | Customer interviews |
| The next question for the moderator or host | Events |
| Questions to check understanding | Lectures and classes |
Live in the Feed
Back to All lensesThe bigger picture behind what’s being said.
A few at a time, never the same subject twice. Turn on the scrutiny pass in Lens tuning and it also names hidden assumptions, blind spots and the strongest counterpoint.
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| Connections across what the customer says | Customer interviews |
| Expert views and parallels from other fields | Research and expert discussions |
Live in the Feed
Back to All lensesThe names and ideas that come up, explained before you ask.
People, companies, places, products, events, books and shows, plus the concepts the talk turns on. A guest from your prep, named in full, is never mixed up with a stranger’s Wikipedia page, and your own projects are never looked up in public.
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| The people, companies and places mentioned | Meetings |
| Who or what the claim is about | Live fact-checking |
| The people, works and places mentioned | Lectures and classes |
Live in the Feed
Back to All lensesA keynote-style deck that builds itself while you talk.
The deck opens with a title slide for your show and guests, headlines every slide with its conclusion, and pulls in real figures, pictures and your background. Ask for one as you talk: “Make a slide explaining those three steps.”
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| Slides built from the talk | Talks and presentations |
| A summary slide from the discussion | Panels and fireside chats |
| A slide or diagram from the explanation | Lectures and classes |
Good to know: PowerPoint keeps each slide as one image, so its text and graphics can’t be edited separately.

Back to All lensesYour conversation in pictures, starring your guests.
Ten treatments, from labelled infographics to a painted 1980s movie poster. Add guest photos in Producer and your guests appear with their real faces. Nothing is posted for you.
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| A shareable image or infographic from the moment | Podcasts |
| Memes, infographics and creative images | Memes and live visuals |
| A picture of the concept | Brainstorming and planning |
Good to know: Pictures carry a small CONVOLENS logo in the corner, unless you ask Chat for a plain one.

Back to All lensesWhat you’d sketch on a whiteboard, drawn for you.
Figures, dates, steps or options: it picks one of 12 forms, from bar charts to flowcharts and mind maps, and uses only numbers that were said. It starts hidden in the Feed; show it to watch charts appear.
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| Diagrams and charts from the ideas on the table | Brainstorming and planning |
| Charts from the numbers mentioned | Talks and presentations |
| Charts and diagrams from the discussion | Workshops |

| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| A meme on cue: “Hey CONVOLENS, make that a meme” | Memes and live visuals |

Back to All lensesCONVOLENS knows your show, guests and material before anyone speaks.

| Participants | Each person’s name and role, with email, profile links and a photo if you have them |

Back to All lensesYour notes, filled in from the conversation when you stop.
Attach past notes in Producer before you record, and today’s notes build on them. Three templates (General, Project and 1:1) set the sections, your own lines stay in your words, and earlier versions can be restored.
| What you get | For |
|---|---|
| A record of what the meeting decided | Meetings |
| A record of what the customer said | Customer interviews |
| Discoveries, decisions and next steps | Workshops |
Good to know: Enhance organizes actions from the transcript, but it doesn’t create, assign or sync tasks.
Ask, prepare and keep

Connect Linear, Notion, Granola, Jira and Confluence, monday.com or ClickUp in Settings → Integrations, or ask Chat to do it. Fact Check’s lookups are read-only.
Good to know: Each tool checks what it holds, like issues or meeting notes; claims about revenue, sales or customers are skipped.
