What is Claap?

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.

What is Skedda?

Skedda opens a developer API — a clear signal it's repositioning as a workplace data platform

Over the past three months Skedda has shipped across three distinct layers: booking operations (space filters, approval rule granularity, booking windows by hour), workplace analytics (occupancy insights with headcount tracking and RTO reporting, multi-venue utilization via Organization Hub), and visitor management (CSV bulk imports, reworked export formats with custom field data). The product's scope has grown well beyond room scheduling.

Claap turns calls into promptable columns — and hands the whole table to your agent over MCP.

◆ Current state

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.

◆ Where it's heading

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.

◆ Prediction

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.

Skedda opens a developer API — a clear signal it's repositioning as a workplace data platform

◆ Current state

Over the past three months Skedda has shipped across three distinct layers: booking operations (space filters, approval rule granularity, booking windows by hour), workplace analytics (occupancy insights with headcount tracking and RTO reporting, multi-venue utilization via Organization Hub), and visitor management (CSV bulk imports, reworked export formats with custom field data). The product's scope has grown well beyond room scheduling.

◆ Where it's heading

The API beta launch is the most directional move in the recent batch — it signals Skedda wants to become an integration layer in the enterprise workplace stack, not just a standalone scheduling app. With occupancy and utilization data programmatically accessible, connections to HR, facility management, and access control systems become natural. The analytics depth (headcount trends, RTO policy tracking) gives the API real data value beyond simple booking CRUD.

◆ Prediction

The next API milestone will almost certainly be write operations — booking creation and modification via API would make Skedda embeddable in enterprise onboarding and facility workflows, where bookings are triggered by other systems rather than manually entered.
