File Sharing Tools Require Accounts and Over-Collect User Data

AI Meeting Assistants Passively Take Notes Instead of Actively Helping
Most AI tools in video calls act only as silent notetakers, while users want an assistant that actively looks things up during the call, helps build documents in real time, and catches action items others missed.
