Why Parley
A meeting note platform you can shape around the job
Most meeting tools ship a fixed note format and a fixed model. Parley is built for teams that need their own prompts, their own providers, and their own definition of what matters.
Customize the playbook
Build evaluation templates for negotiation risk, sales qualification, missed objections, follow-ups, or anything your workflow requires.
Ask against the evidence
Ask what happened, what was missed, what to push on next, or what changed. Answers stay grounded in the transcript.
Bring your own providers
Use the transcription vendor and model provider that fit your cost, privacy, language, and latency needs.
Workflow
From call to decision support
Three steps from a live conversation to insight you can act on — without changing how you run the meeting.
-
01
Choose your stack
Pick the STT provider and model provider you want. Parley stays the meeting layer, not another closed AI bundle.
-
02
Load a playbook
Use templates for sales, negotiation, hiring, or diligence, then edit the prompts until they match your process.
-
03
Run the meeting
Watch transcript, questions, flags, and follow-ups update while you stay focused on the person in front of you.
Showcase
Not generic notes. A configurable meeting cockpit.
The same transcript can power different playbooks: sales qualification, negotiation risk, hiring signal, diligence follow-up, or your own internal rubric.
Live transcript
A clean record before analysis
Parley separates speakers, keeps names editable, and gives every downstream insight something concrete to cite.
- Speaker-aware transcript
- Editable names and context
- Useful during or after the call

- Custom prompts and templates
- Evidence-backed flags
- Auto-check action items

The debrief
Walk out having learned something
Stopping a meeting lands on its report: the brief with clickable timestamps, both sides' commitments, action items, final deal intelligence, and your delivery scorecard — on one scroll, saved with the recording.
- Generated once, reloads instantly forever
- Replay any moment and re-run the analysis as of that point
- Ask anything about the call, grounded in the transcript

Account memory
Every call makes the next one smarter
Deals span many calls. The account workspace keeps a living dossier per company — stakeholders and stances, deal threads on a pipeline, and atomic intel cards with sources, confidence, and freshness.
- File what each meeting revealed in one review pass
- One-click pre-meeting briefing from the dossier
- Red lines arm as live alerts in the next call

Beyond the meeting
Voice typing, anywhere on your Mac
Parley isn't only for calls. Hold your push-to-talk key in any app, speak, and release — your words are transcribed with your own provider and dropped right where your cursor is.
Push to talk
Hold a key. Talk. It types.
The same fast, private transcription that powers your meetings, available system-wide — fire off a message, a note, or a prompt without touching the keyboard.
- Works in any app, not just Parley
- Record any shortcut — or hold a single key
- Auto-pastes where your cursor is
- Your own transcription provider — nothing in between

On your phone
The meetings you have in person
Not every meeting happens on a call. Parley for iPhone records the room you are sitting in — the coffee shop, the customer's office, the table where nobody is opening a laptop — and the transcript arrives while people are still talking.
Put the phone down
Record the room, read it live
One microphone, speakers separated automatically. Recording never starts until you confirm everyone present has agreed, and a finished recording survives a dead network — it queues on the phone and syncs itself later.
- Live transcript with automatic speaker separation
- Consent prompt before every session
- Voice typing into any app, from the Parley keyboard or the Action Button
- English and Traditional Chinese, following your phone's language

One account, two devices
Caught on the phone, worked on the Mac
Recordings and transcripts sync to the same Parley account, so a meeting you captured at a table opens on the desktop with the full report behind it — timestamps, commitments, action items, deal intelligence, delivery scorecard.
- Hosted transcription on sign-in — no API key on the phone
- Personal and organization libraries, shared or moved between them
- No phone calls, no FaceTime, no other apps' audio — iOS offers no such API and Parley does not pretend otherwise

Built-in MCP server
Ask the meeting from your own AI
Parley runs a local Model Context Protocol server. Point Claude — or any MCP client — at it and query the live call as it happens, with the AI app you already use.
Model Context Protocol
Your AI, wired into the live call
No extra key inside Parley — connect the assistant you already pay for and let it read the running transcript, then ask "what did they commit to?" or "what haven't I asked yet?" grounded in the meeting.
- Reads the live, speaker-labelled transcript
- Can drive the agenda, evaluations, and timeline
- Works with Claude, Cursor, and any MCP client
# Connect your MCP client — keep Parley open
claude mcp add --transport http parley \
http://127.0.0.1:3011/mcpThe exact endpoint (and a ready-to-paste command) lives in Settings → MCP Server.
