We won the Notion hackathon with a prototype of Cerebro — an "autonomous intranet."
There are a handful of agent memory/second brain tools out there already, but I ain't bullish, so the bet with Cerebro is different: configure Notion — the layer many companies already run on — as a well-organized, self-managing enterprise memory, so any human and/or agent can easily find what they need to get sh*t done.
Now it's time to build the real Cerebro for our own company. In public. Documenting one component at a time.
Journal Entry 1/n: Automatic & Accurate Meeting Transcription.
Every single meeting we take should be accurately transcribed, cleaned (more on that in the next post), made agent-readable, and automatically fed into Cerebro.
To solve for transcription accuracy and agent accessibility, I'm setting up our team on
@circlebackai. This is not a sponsored post.
Since 2020, I've used a bunch of meeting transcription tools, and none have nailed it as well as Circleback.
It records well:
• Automatic join/recording
• Speaker attribution
• Screen reading when sharing
• Slack huddle support (p clever)
• Granola-like system audio recorder
• Web, desktop, and mobile apps
And it's agent-native:
• MCP, CLI, and Claude Connector
• Native Attio, Slack & Notion integrations (also Raycast, Linear, Zapier)
• Workspace-level automations and settings
Plus: I like that their founder/CEO,
@iAligator responds to my random emails about Circleback :)
All of this means that in one afternoon, I can set up a super-fast, basically headless meeting recorder that captures every conversation across our team and makes it instantly available in Claude.
I'm onboarding my team today with a deep-dive onboarding video doc.
