Circleback CEO Ali Haghani: Why Your Company Should Be Recording More Meetings

影片總結

CircleBack CEO Ali Haghani champions recording every meeting as AI agents reshape software engineering

CircleBack co-founder Ali Haghani argues that companies should record nearly every conversation because AI agents need shared context to work effectively. CircleBack transcribes meetings, creates notes and action items, connects with CRM, Slack and issue trackers, and lets teams query their collective “company brain.” Haghani uses it as an applicant-tracking system, to prepare for interviews, and to follow up on customer feedback. He spends 10–20% of his day with OpenClaw, relies on agents to write and review code, and uses evals to prevent noisy notes—for example, banning the word “discussed.” However, agents may never send emails independently, publish production copy, or architect security-sensitive systems. Haghani believes falling software costs shift the advantage from coding speed to deciding what to build and designing systems that work together.
