Stop forgetting what
clients told you.
Magnative is a local macOS transcription app. It auto-records your scheduled calls and saves full transcripts to your client folders in Google Drive.
Calendar event starts → Recording starts
Automatic. No clicking needed.
Call ends → Pick client folder
One click. Magnative remembers for next time.
Full transcript saved to Google Drive

Granola and Fathom are great.
Until you forget to activate them.
You're jumping from call to call. You meant to record, but you forgot. Again.
"We talked about this yesterday"
The client is frustrated. You feel like an idiot. It's not that you don't care—you just can't hold it all in your head.
Manual recording = forgotten recording
ADHD brains can't rely on remembering to click. When you're late, distracted, or juggling contexts, recording is the first thing dropped.
No single source of truth
Transcripts sit in random apps, not with your client files. AI can't help without the full picture.
The Fix
Magnative auto-records every 
calendar call and saves the full transcript to your Google Drive.
After each call, you pick the folder—client, internal, or sales. That's it. Your AI assistant now has the full context of every conversation.

Why I Built This
“I built Magnative because I was tired of clients saying ‘we discussed this yesterday.’ I have ADHD. I forget things. I needed a tool that works without me remembering to use it.”
Eddie
Founder, Magnative
