Hello, Product Hunt Community 👋

I’m Jay, the founder of Shadow.


After years of sitting through countless meetings, I realized something—most meetings end up creating more work, not more progress. We’ve all been there: another meeting wraps up, and suddenly you’re staring at a pile of tasks, follow-ups, and vague notes.


Sound familiar? 🙄


That’s exactly why we built Shadow — to turn every meeting into actual progress, not just more ‘let me get back to you’ moments.


🚀 What is Shadow?
Shadow is your post-meeting powerhouse. While other tools might just give you a summary, Shadow bridges the gap between conversation and completion. It captures everything, generates detailed transcripts, tracks tasks, and helps you move projects forward—all without intrusive bots or cloud storage.


How Shadow Works:
✅ Autopilot: Join or record any meeting automatically (Zoom, Google Meet, in-person—Shadow doesn’t need to be a participant).
✅ Capture: Get searchable high-quality meeting data in seconds that are supported with thoughts that you jot down throughout the discussion.
✅ Organize: Automatically extract action items, tasks, and insights instantly following the completion of a discussion.
✅ Progress: Use pre-built 'Skills' or create your own to complete post meetings tasks.
✅ Stay Secure: All meeting data is locally stored—nothing ever touches the cloud. Plus, your audio is never shared or processed.


🔥 Why Shadow Stands Out:
🧠 No Bots: Shadow doesn’t need to join your meetings—enjoy privacy and control
⚡ From Talk to Task: Turn conversations into real results
🔍 Local Storage: Keep your data private—nothing is uploaded, ever
📈 Effortless Progress: Stop recapping and start moving forward
💬 Chat with Shadow: Make reviewing a breeze with conversational AI that acts like a personal assistant


Use Cases:
From project managers and team leads to freelancers and consultants—anyone who wants their meetings to drive real results, not just more meetings.

A huge thank you to the amazing Product Hunt community—your support is always and has been incredible. Let’s make meetings matter, together 🚀

This feels like the productivity upgrade meetings have always needed. Love how Shadow bridges the gap between talking and actually doing—no more wasted insights or forgotten action items.

@supa_l Thanks, Supa! We started building Shadow after noticing how much time people spend digging through recordings, transcripts, or even AI-generated summaries just to find what matters — it’s kind of crazy. That gap is exactly what we set out to solve, and you nailed it. Appreciate the support!

Finally, a tool that focuses on actual outcomes instead of just note-taking! But how customizable are the pre-built ‘Skills’? Can I tweak them for creative workflows like design sprints?

@desmond_ren1 Pre-built Skills are customizable — you can easily select options that suit your needs and add additional instructions. For example, in the 'Write Thank-you Email' Skill, you can choose a tone from a dropdown menu and also add a note like, “Here’s an email I sent to someone — use this tone.”


There’s also a 'Custom Skill' that lets you define anything you want Shadow to do based on a conversation — it’s fully customizable! My personal favorite is “Create a 3-line TL;DR summary in Korean” since it’s super easy to share with my team.

Still getting “Meeting detected” when you’re not in a meeting?

TL;DR - https://youtu.be/HNHFhEC98SM

Ever tried recording a quick video message or chatting with ChatGPT and suddenly your AI note-taker like Granola, or Notion pops up saying: Meeting detected!

A true game-changer of a tool. I've been using shadow for a few months now; and it's truly incredible. Jay is always open to feedback, and the tool has just got better and better. A true 10/10 product.
