ELSE is a voice-first conversational canvas designed to help people have better conversations while they are still happening. Instead of producing another transcript or waiting until the conversation is over, ELSE listens alongside participants, identifies missing information, surfaces relevant questions, and continuously organizes the discussion into a live visual 3×3 canvas. The current topic stays at the center, surrounded by eight relevant questions and directions worth exploring. As the conversation moves, the canvas moves with it. ELSE distinguishes between what has been confirmed, what still needs clarification, and what should happen next. A live speaker-aware transcript preserves the discussion, while a saved Summary captures confirmed points, unresolved questions, next steps, topic history, and the complete chronological transcript. AssemblyAI Streaming Speech-to-Text provides the real-time voice layer, allowing participants to keep speaking naturally while ELSE follows the conversation and updates the shared workspace in the background. ELSE is designed for project planning, negotiations, interviews, creative brainstorming, and everyday decisions - situations where the most important question is often the one nobody remembered to ask.
