AI desktop assistant for real-time meetings
About Cluely
Cluely is building AI to give you an unfair advantage in every situation.
It acts as a desktop assistant that takes in screen, mic, and audio context to give you information and suggestions that existing model providers cannot, due to a lack of context.
We will win for two reasons:
1) Chatbots are not the best interface for multi-modal AI
2) We can make anything viral
About the Role
We work six days a week in-person in San Francisco, 10-12 hours a day.
You are expected to live within a block of the office (housing provided).
The entire codebase is strictly typed (no ts-ignore or anys). We use Bun, Elysia, and strictly typed routes.
You might be a good fit if you are:
One of the best engineers in the world
Strong fullstack engineer (React/Electron/Infra experience)
You should know how to efficiently fetch and cache data in a React application
You should know how to design and structure database schemas that optimize read and write performance
You should be comfortable deploying and scaling applications and be able to weigh pros and cons of different infra/devops solutions
I will sanity check all of the above in an interview with you
Down to gamble your life into greatness

It provides real-time, context-aware insights and prompts by observing the user’s screen and listening to audio, helping users respond to objections and technical questions during sales interactions. It works with platforms like Zoom and is designed to operate during meetings to surface immediate guidance without interrupting the flow. The product uses a freemium model with free and premium tiers, generating revenue through subscriptions targeted at individuals and businesses that rely on virtual communication tools. Cluely differentiates itself by offering real-time, context-specific support integrated with existing meeting software and by emphasizing compliant handling of audio recording and consent laws. Its goal is to help users avoid lost deals and improve their effectiveness in virtual communications.
