About Tana
Tana's voice agent starts doing concurrent background work inside live meetings.
Tana has spent the visible window building around the meeting rather than the note. The 28 August release turns the voice agent from an input method into a background worker: several requests run at once while the conversation continues, it acts in connected tools, and it reads the day's agenda, pinned items, captured outcomes and the shared screen for context. Around that sit a natural-language search that resolves plain questions into filter pills, a saveable search document, and a long tail of meeting-surface refinements.
