Claap turns calls into promptable columns — and hands the whole table to your agent over MCP.
Claap is a meeting recorder that has spent this window becoming a structured data layer for revenue teams. AI Fields, shipped in July, lets a user write a prompt and get a typed column — a rating, a status, a text value — computed across every call in a meeting or deal view, auto-run on new calls and synced to the CRM. The month before, those same tables and columns were made readable by Claude and any other MCP client, and field enrichment gained deeper HubSpot targets. Around that core sit capture and reporting expansions: mobile apps for in-person meetings, automatic capture of contact email alongside calls, and Deal and Company reports built on the conversation record rather than the CRM stage.
Self-hosted dashboard that finished its feature arc and stopped shipping in 2023.
Flame is a self-hosted startpage for homelab services — app tiles, bookmarks, weather, and a search bar. The feature set it set out to build was finished across 2021 and 2022: custom app descriptions, Docker secrets support, a secondary search provider, and a custom theme editor. The most recent release in this feed is v2.3.1 from July 2023, and it is entirely bug fixes.

The arc is unusually consistent — every release widens the input corpus or sharpens the output schema. Calls, then email, then in-person meetings recorded on a phone all flow into one deal timeline; on the other side, insights hardened into typed columns, then into user-defined prompted columns, then into something an external agent can read directly. That last move matters most: Claap is positioning as a source its customers' own AI reads, not only a dashboard people open, which is a different competitive posture than a call recorder that keeps its analysis inside its own UI. The feed also emits duplicate posts for several releases, so raw entry counts overstate the shipping cadence.
The next step suggested by these entries is writing rather than reading — AI Fields that trigger actions or CRM updates on a computed value, not just sync a column — since the prompt, the schedule and the CRM connection are all already in place.

The arc reads as a project reaching completion rather than one under active development. Later releases shifted from adding capability to correcting the edges of what already existed — search-provider interactions, iOS input rendering, theme editor field sizes, label wording. There has been nothing since.
Nothing in these entries suggests further releases; anyone deploying Flame should treat the current version as the final one unless the project resumes.
