ReadyCall Vision: Notepad as Work Entrypoint
· product-design, readycall
The Wedge vs The Vision
Wedge: Multi-lingual transcription quality (Soniox + Doubao)
- Gets us in the door
- Real gap in market
- But not defensible long-term (Granola can catch up)
Vision: The notepad as the entrypoint of one's work
- Meetings don't exist in isolation — they connect to everything
- Connect across meetings (recurring 1:1s, project threads, customer history)
- Connect to existing context (Notion docs, Attio CRM, etc.)
What "Entrypoint of Work" Means
Meetings are where work happens:
- Decisions get made
- Context gets shared
- Action items emerge
- Relationships develop
But currently, meeting notes are dead artifacts. They don't connect to:
- The last 5 conversations with this person
- The Notion doc you were discussing
- The deal in your CRM
- The action items from previous meetings
The Moat
If ReadyCall becomes the connective tissue between:
- Meetings (past and present)
- Knowledge bases (Notion, etc.)
- Relationship data (CRM, contacts)
- Tasks and follow-ups
Then switching cost increases dramatically. It's not just "another transcription tool" — it's your work memory.
Open Questions
- What's the first integration that proves this? (Notion? CRM?)
- How do you surface connections without being noisy?
- Does this require a different UI than a "notepad"?
- How does this relate to the "living knowledge base" idea?
