Searchable transcripts + messaging. Solo, shipping fast.

Two features shipped this week. Coaches can now search through session transcripts — pull up a client's specific problem from three months ago without scrolling. And a direct messaging UI so they can talk to clients inside the platform instead of bouncing to WhatsApp.

Neither was planned. Both came from watching the two coaches I'm running live on this thing. One asked "why can't I search?" The other was Alt+Tabbing between here and their messages. Dead obvious in hindsight. But you don't see obvious until someone shows you.

The hard part right now is speed. Recall bot joins the call, records it, ships audio to AssemblyAI, then I hit Gemini for insights. End-to-end sometimes takes 30 seconds. Coach finishes the session and wants the recap NOW. Not half a minute later. That lag kills the momentum. I'm testing batching and better caching but haven't cracked it yet.

What's working: shipping narrow. Not building the perfect AI back-office fantasy. Just killing the worst friction this week. Next is probably offline parsing so transcripts don't block on API wait times.

Question for builders here — if you're writing notes manually after every call, what actually changes your behavior? Is it the speed of the recap, or is it trusting that the AI nailed it and didn't miss anything important?
