Overview

Live Session is a native macOS capability that brings Chief into your live meetings, calls, and negotiations.

Instead of waiting for transcripts or post-meeting summaries, Live Session listens in real time and surfaces useful context, insights, and suggested actions as the conversation continues.

It is designed to help you stay informed and respond faster during high-context discussions, without needing to take manual notes or switch tools.
