Yusef Jacobs🛠️ 1 tool 🙏 18 karmaJul 2, 2025@Jamy👋 Hey everyone — I’m Yusef, founder of Jamy. We built Jamy because we were tired of wasting time after meetings — rewriting notes, chasing action items, and trying to remember what was actually said. Jamy handles all of that automatically: it joins your calls, transcribes, summarizes, pulls tasks and quotes, and even sends branded follow-ups. It works with Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, and phone calls — and connects with tools like Slack, Trello, and Notion. If you’re curious, give it a spin — jamy.ai. Would love your feedback! — Yusef -
