Convolens is a Mac desktop app that records and transcribes your conversation on device, and turns it into slides, fact-checks, and infographics.

As a whole, Convolens lets you: - Record and transcribe your meetings / sessions locally. - Generate Slide decks, Infographics, and Fact-checks from your conversation (among other things). - Chat with your meeting/session and research anything that you need.β¦

Hi HN, Hearing a lot of buzz around GLM-5.3, which I expect to be the best open-source coding model with the weights dropping soon, I wanted to test it where I actually do my work. I just mapped GLM-5.3 to TokenGo so I could swap out the base URL and use it directly in my IDE. The backend handles the edge routing via Cloudflare to keep latency low, critical when you're waiting for inline code completions. If you want to try GLM-5.3 (or glm-5.3-flash) in your own workflow, here is the setup. For Cursor: Go to Settings > Models. Add your API key in the OpenAI API Key field. Toggle "Override Opeβ¦
