How it works
It fits into how you already work.
No new habits. No extra steps. hmm? runs in the background and builds your understanding over time, automatically.
Desktop App
Live meetings, understood
Install once. Then meet as you normally would. hmm? handles the rest.
Download and install
Install hmm? on Windows in under a minute. It connects to your system audio. Nothing to configure, no browser extension required.
Join your meeting normally
Whatever meeting service you use. hmm? listens in the background while you stay focused on the conversation. No indicator, no interruption.
Terms are detected and defined
As technical terms come up, hmm? identifies them, generates plain English definitions, and queues them for your review. No more Googling after the fact.
Your glossary grows
Confirm the terms that matter. Over time, your glossary becomes a living reference for your team's specific language: searchable, editable, and always up to date.
