What it is

Omi captures audio from conversations and what appears on your screen, transcribes it live, and turns it into summaries, action items, and a searchable memory you can chat with. It ships as a macOS and Windows desktop app, iOS and Android apps, and firmware plus hardware designs for a pendant wearable and smart glasses. Developers can extend it through device SDKs, a REST API, plugin apps, and an MCP server, and the Python backend can be run on your own infrastructure. People who sit through many meetings use it to keep a record of what was said and what they agreed to do.
