The live assistant is a floating heads-up display that stays available while Heizen records. It can remain as a compact pill or expand into meeting-aware chat and transcript views.
Use the collapsed pill
The pill keeps recording controls within reach without covering your meeting.
- Open the current meeting in the main Heizen window.
- Stop the recording.
- Expand the assistant into chat.
- See the elapsed recording duration.
Open and collapse the assistant
- Press Command + Shift + H to toggle the assistant.
- Press Escape to collapse the expanded assistant.
- Select the assistant control in the pill to expand it manually.
Ask during the meeting
The chat is grounded in the current meeting’s transcript and metadata. Ask a free-form question, or use one of the seven quick actions:
| Shortcut | Action | What it asks |
|---|---|---|
| Command + 1 | Signal | What’s the signal? |
| Command + 2 | Ask Next | What should I ask next? |
| Command + 3 | Gaps | Find gaps, assumptions, or things left unsaid. |
| Command + 4 | Pilot | Suggest a pilot scope from the discussion. |
| Command + 5 | Price | Suggest what to charge. |
| Command + 6 | Summary | Summarize the call so far. |
| Command + 7 | Draft a follow-up email. |
Responses can stream while the meeting continues. Select the stop-generation control if you no longer need the answer.
Include or exclude screen context
Use the camera control in the toolbar:
- Uses Screen means the assistant can include a current screen capture with your next request.
- Does not use screen means the assistant answers from meeting context without a screen capture.
Keep screen context off when private messages, credentials, customer data, or unrelated windows are visible.
