Meeting recaps for everyone in the room

Meeting recaps now reach every attendee: hosts, Heyno users, and invited guests alike. When a meeting ends, Heyno writes the recap, emails it to everyone who was part of the meeting, and files the document in Drive under Meeting Documents.

Previously the recipient list was resolved only from a calendar invitation, which meant a meeting started on the spot had no list to resolve and quietly sent nothing at all. The list is now built from the people who actually joined, unioned with anyone on the invitation, and falls back to the host when nobody else can be identified.

The list is resolved when the meeting ends rather than when it was scheduled, so somebody added an hour beforehand is included and somebody who declined is not. It can be edited before the recap sends, and a meeting can be marked to send no recap at all.

  • Ad-hoc and scheduled meetings share one rule: in the room or on the invite, the recap lands in your inbox.
  • Recap documents save into Meeting Documents automatically, and the emailed copy is the same document.
  • Guests without a Heyno account receive the recap at the address they were invited on.
  • Action items are extracted as a list rather than left buried in the summary.

Meeting links open right in the app

Tapping a Heyno meeting link now takes you straight into the meeting: no browser detour, no copy-pasting codes, and no landing on a web page that then asks you to open the app you already have.

The link carries the meeting identifier, so the app knows which meeting to join without asking. If you are not signed in when you tap it, the destination is held until you are and the join happens immediately afterwards rather than dropping you on the home screen.

On a device without the app installed, the same link opens the meeting in the browser. Guests invited from outside your business take that path by default, and both paths join the same meeting.

  • One link works for app and browser; there is no separate guest meeting.
  • A held link survives sign-in, so an invitation tapped from mail still lands you in the meeting.
  • Expired links report that the meeting is unavailable rather than failing silently.

Smoother meetings across regions

We tuned how meeting video adapts on congested and long-distance connections. Participants joining from far away now hold a stable picture at a lower resolution instead of freezing at a higher one.

The trade is deliberate. In a meeting, a slightly softer picture that keeps moving is more useful than a sharp one that stalls every few seconds, and stalling is what people actually complain about.

Distance matters because media travels to the meeting infrastructure and back. A longer round trip leaves less room to recover from a moment of congestion, which is why two people in the same meeting can have very different experiences, and why the person having trouble is often not the one who reports it.

  • Adaptation is per participant, so one poor connection no longer degrades the meeting for everybody.
  • Cellular connections are handled more tolerantly, since mobile networks reorder and delay packets in ways fixed lines do not.
  • Check where participants are before anything else when quality is reported as poor.

Approval cards before anything ships

When Heyno is about to act on your behalf, such as sending an email, delivering a quote, or posting an update, it shows an approval card instead of proceeding. The card contains exactly what would be sent, to whom, and what triggered it.

You approve it, edit it first, or decline it. Nothing goes out on a timer, and nothing goes out because a card was ignored; an unanswered approval stays outstanding and appears in the day queue until somebody deals with it.

Reversible internal work does not produce a card. Drafting, filing, tagging a record and adding a calendar hold are all undoable in seconds, and stopping for approval on each one turns the assistant into a form. The line is drawn where an action becomes visible to somebody outside your business.

  • High-risk categories, including anything that moves money, are off by default and enabled explicitly.
  • Approvals can be scoped by role, so payment approvers and reply approvers need not be the same people.
  • Cards can be approved from a notification without opening the app.

Introducing the Heyno Connector

The Heyno Connector links your AI tools to everything Heyno manages for you. Set it up once, and an assistant in another application can work with your calls, calendar, mail, tasks, documents and business memory instead of starting from nothing.

It is the same data and the same permissions as the Heyno app: connecting a second tool does not create a second copy of anything, and it does not widen what that tool may do.

A connected tool may read the context you granted and propose actions. It may not send mail, deliver quotes or take any other side-effecting action without the same approval card a request inside Heyno would produce, and that boundary is enforced on the Heyno side rather than trusted to the connecting tool.

  • Connections are per tool and revocable independently, with created and last-used dates shown.
  • Revocation takes effect immediately and does not require the other tool to cooperate.
  • Built on MCP, so any client that speaks it can connect.

Drive 2: documents with real structure

Heyno Drive now produces real documents: Word files with proper heading levels, Excel sheets with live formulas rather than pasted values, and PowerPoint decks with real slides. Opening one gives you something you can edit rather than something you have to rebuild.

The distinction matters most in spreadsheets. A sheet of numbers is a report; a sheet with formulas is a model somebody can change an assumption in and get a new answer from.

Content is written as structured markup and converted, so headings become heading styles and tables become tables. That is why a document asked for as markdown comes back with a real outline instead of a wall of body text with bold lines in it.

  • Files are filed into the folder that matches the work; meeting documents go to Meeting Documents automatically.
  • Folder names are unique across your account, so a file has one unambiguous destination.
  • Revisions update the same file and keep versions, rather than creating a second file with a similar name.

The Vault: your keys, locked

The Vault stores your passwords and credentials the way a password manager does: encrypted on your device before they sync, and encrypted in transit and at rest thereafter.

Heyno can use a stored credential to sign in to a service when you have asked it to do something that requires signing in. It uses the credential; it does not display it, does not read it back in a chat, does not put it in a document or an email, and does not pass it to a connected tool.

Every use is recorded: which entry, for what, and when. The question of what a credential was used for has an answer that is not somebody’s recollection.

  • Entries can be shared with specific people rather than the whole business.
  • A request that would expose a credential is refused rather than partially fulfilled.
  • Recovery depends on your account, so set it up when you create the Vault rather than when you need it.

Mail and Calendar, together

Heyno now includes a full mail client and calendar. You read and send from your own address rather than a Heyno one, so nothing about how you appear to the people you write to changes.

Replies are drafted in your writing style, learned from mail you have already sent rather than from a generic template, and a thread is read as a thread: a reply drafted halfway down a long exchange accounts for what was already agreed, not just the message above it.

The calendar is read whenever anything is scheduled, so a proposed time is one that is actually free. Working hours, buffers and the meetings you never want stacked are yours to set and are respected rather than optimised around.

  • Nothing sends without an approval.
  • Lapsed provider authorisations stop mail rather than failing silently, and the account is flagged for re-authorisation.
  • Invitations arriving by mail are parsed into calendar entries, including badly formed ones.

Memory that carries the quarter

Heyno’s memory now spans your whole working context: chats, meetings, calls and documents. Something explained in a call in March is available when the same subject comes up in a document in June.

What is kept is the durable kind of fact: how your business works, who people are, what was decided. It is not a transcript of everything that has ever been said.

Thread memory is the default scope. What you discuss with one person does not silently become context in a conversation with somebody else, and any promotion to shared or workspace memory is explicit and visible in the thread where it happened.

  • Memory can be listed, searched and deleted, one fact at a time.
  • Deleting removes a memory from future context rather than hiding it.
  • Carrying context across a quarter is what removes the re-explaining that made assistants feel like capable strangers.

Train Heyno on your business

Upload documents or connect Notion, and Heyno learns how your business runs: your pricing, your process, your standard answers. There is no particular format required: a price list as a spreadsheet, a process as a Word document and a policy as a PDF are all usable.

The knowledge is used where being wrong is expensive: answering, quoting and drafting. A quote is priced from your rules rather than estimated, and an answer about your process comes from what you wrote rather than from a plausible guess.

Where the knowledge does not cover a case, Heyno says so and routes to a person rather than filling the gap. Two documents that contradict each other will produce inconsistent answers. Writing the rules down often surfaces contradictions that were already there and previously invisible.

  • Connected sources stay current without re-uploading; when the source changes, what Heyno knows changes.
  • Connected sources are read-only unless you grant otherwise.
  • Correcting a price or policy in one place changes every answer that depends on it.

Ruby-Horizon

Ruby-Horizon is the model behind Heyno, the assistant that runs the day with you. Talk to it like a colleague, and it does the work rather than describing how the work might be done.

It was built for repetitive agentic work rather than for single impressive answers: long chains of small tasks, run reliably, with the judgement to stop and ask when something is about to have a consequence outside the conversation.

Voice is built in rather than bolted on, so a phone call and a chat are the same assistant with the same context, not two systems that share a name.

  • Runs where your work runs, including on your own hardware for enterprise deployments.
  • Safety and approval behaviour are part of the model’s design, not a filter in front of it.
  • See the system card for evaluation detail and known limitations.
