Meg Chen
Engineering Lead · Platform Team
Meg leads the platform engineering team and reports to the CTO. She's driving the migration to the new infrastructure stack and is a key voice in hiring decisions. Communicates directly, prefers data over opinions, and has strong convictions about team structure.
Revised timeline due by Friday
Two senior vs three mid-level hires
Waiting on team feedback
Agreed to share revised migration timeline by Friday. Flagged risk around contractor availability.
Discussed Q3 headcount priorities. Meg advocating for two senior hires over three mid-level.
Reviewed on-call feedback. Meg proposed rotating leads monthly instead of quarterly.
Every person gets a living brief that grows richer over time. It holds their priorities, your open threads, their working style, and everything you've discussed. All from quick reflections that take less than two minutes.
Three reflections. Two minutes each. This is what builds itself.
The difference between an AI that guesses and one that knows you
“What should I bring up in my 1:1 with Jamie?”
Here are some general tips for effective 1:1 meetings: set an agenda, discuss career growth, review recent work, and check in on blockers…
“What should I bring up in my 1:1 with Jamie?”
Based on your recent meetings with Jamie, you have 3 open threads: the VPE search (she expressed strong opinions about the candidate last week), her interview load (she flagged 11 hours as unsustainable), and the growth team restructuring. You also committed to reviewing her interview schedule.
Two minutes after a conversation. Everything else is automatic.
No bots on your call. Just your own reflections, transformed into relationship intelligence.
Reflect
After a meeting, jot down what stood out or record a quick voice note. No structure needed — just what’s on your mind. Takes less time than writing a Slack message.
Your thoughts
Need to follow up with Meg on the migration timeline — she seemed unsure about contractor availability.
Team pushed back on the Q3 plan. Revisit headcount numbers before Friday.
Jamie mentioned burnout on the on-call rotation. Worth raising with Meg in our next 1:1.

}Briefs that get richer with every conversation
The more you reflect, the more Debrief knows. Here's what builds automatically.
Open threads that track themselves
Every commitment, question, and unresolved topic becomes a tracked thread on that person’s brief. Nothing falls through the cracks between meetings.
Working style notes that accumulate
Over time, Debrief learns how each person communicates, makes decisions, and prefers to work. Context your AI assistant can use to help you collaborate better.
A complete conversation history
Every reflection adds to a timeline of your relationship. Search across months of interactions to find that one thing someone said in a meeting you barely remember.
Google & Outlook sync
Connect your calendar and meetings sync automatically. Reflections are always linked to the right people.
Web, mobile & native Mac
Full experience in any browser, plus a free menu-bar recorder on the Mac App Store.
Text or voice capture
Type quick notes or record a voice memo — whatever is fastest.
Give your briefs more to work with.
Your reflection carries the signal: what you noticed, and what you think it means. Debrief Recorder adds what sits underneath it. It records the meeting on your Mac and captures what was actually said, and who said it. Debrief reads both, so the threads and working-style notes it builds get sharper over time.
Optional, and per meeting. Debrief works exactly as before without it.
Catches what you’d forget
The exact commitment, the number someone quoted, the phrasing of a concern — detail that never makes it into a two-minute note.
Knows who said what
On-device speaker separation attributes every point to the right person, so briefs stay accurate as the room grows.
Your audio never leaves the Mac
Whisper transcribes locally on Apple silicon. No bot joins your call, and only the finished text syncs.
Zero extra effort
It sits in your menu bar and offers to record when a meeting starts. You still add the judgment; it handles the recall.
Your AI assistant finally has a memory
Debrief uses the Model Context Protocol to plug into Claude, ChatGPT, and any MCP-compatible tool. Each one gets direct access to your relationship intelligence. Ask “what should I bring up with Meg?” and the answer comes from your actual history.
Your reflections are honest. They stay private.
The observations that make Debrief valuable are often candid and sensitive. Everything is encrypted at rest, isolated at the database level, and never used to train AI models. Only you and your AI assistant can access your data.
Encrypted at rest
Your reflections are encrypted with industry-standard AES-256-GCM encryption.
Completely isolated
Your data is separated at the database level. No one else can access it.
Never used for training
We never use your debriefs or reflections to train AI models. Your data is yours.
Enterprise-grade infrastructure
Built on SOC2-compliant infrastructure with industry best practices.

Your first brief builds itself after one reflection. Free to start, no credit card required.
