Live call assistance for Mac

Ruby is an AI call assistant that runs on Mac and helps during live conversations. It listens to the call as it happens, then surfaces a question, reminder, or follow-up at the moment it may be most useful.

The workflow is simple: sign in with Claude, brief Ruby with the meeting context and a skill, then take the call. Ruby uses the user's Claude subscription for the AI layer and keeps the assistant private to the user during the call.

Core features

Live call listening

Ruby listens to the conversation in real time and watches for moments where a question or reminder may help.

Context briefing

Before the call, you can tell Ruby who you are meeting and assign a skill such as the-mom-test, sales, hiring, or a custom prompt.

Timely on-screen prompts

Ruby surfaces the question worth asking when the timing fits, instead of waiting until the call is over.

Private display

Only the user can see Ruby, and it is hidden from screen share so the assistant is not visible to other participants.

No meeting bot

Ruby does not join the call as a bot, which keeps the interaction on the user's side of the conversation.

Claude-based processing

Ruby uses the user's Claude subscription for the AI work, and the transcript plus notes stay with the user.

Common use cases

  • Founders on customer calls

    Use Ruby to keep high-stakes customer conversations moving and ask the question that would otherwise come to mind only after the call.

  • Product managers in discovery interviews

    Brief Ruby with the interview context so it can prompt for a useful follow-up while the discussion is still active.

  • Sales calls and objections

    Keep Ruby on hand during sales conversations to help surface the next question or the point worth remembering in the moment.

  • Recruiting interviews

    Use Ruby to stay present in interviews while still having a prompt available for a missing detail or follow-up question.

  • Custom live-call workflows

    If your call style does not fit a preset use case, Ruby can be briefed with your own skill and used as a personal call assistant.
