v1.3: Speaker Separation, Enhanced Speech Recognition, Improved Summaries, and Rebranding
This update brings major stability improvements and performance enhancements. We highly recommend updating right away!
Strengthening the Fundamentals
Speech Engine v3: Better Speaker Separation, Speech Recognition, and Reduced Latency
We've implemented our new v3 engine with native (C++) level AGC, VAD, and active noise cancellation technology. This has significantly improved speed, accuracy, and recognition rates.
- ⚡️ Speed improvements: Recognition and translation delays reduced by 0.3-1 second.
- 🎙️ Superior speech recognition: Better detection even in echo-filled meeting rooms or noisy cafes.
- 🗣️ Dramatically improved speaker separation. We now automatically identify people by name instead of using Speaker A, B, C.
- 🐢 No more loading: We've eliminated the loading time when starting and ending recordings.
Special thanks to Jinhyuk, Hyewon, Daeun, Juwon, and Harrison for providing valuable feedback that helped us improve the product!
Remarkably Better Summaries
Ever felt like your summaries were missing something? We now capture important points more comprehensively. For example:
- Content includes 30% more detail.
- Important numbers and metrics are highlighted.
- Speaker attribution is more accurate.
- Action items are clearly identified.
If you're still not satisfied with the summary:
- Try asking the AI to modify it through chat (e.g., "Make it longer/shorter," "This is a VC meeting," "Summarize in English").
- Use the template feature to create meeting note templates that work for you and your team.
Caret's Rebranding
Our new logo balances intuitive form with flexible curves, embodying Caret's essence of connecting information with users. This rebranding emphasizes that Caret is more than just a recording tool—it's a smart companion that helps with your meetings.
Small but Essential Updates
Auto-Stop Recording After 5 Minutes of Silence
To prevent accidental credit consumption, recordings automatically stop after 5 minutes without any detected conversation. You can always resume with a button press if this happens unintentionally.
Conversation Search
You can now search conversation content by pressing Cmd (Ctrl) + F. Thanks for your patience, Hyemi, Donggwan, Hyungju, Jared, and Steve!
Automatic Summary Template Selection (BETA)
When a meeting ends, we'll select an appropriate template based on the meeting content. If you don't like the template format, you can easily change it by clicking the summary button.
Bug Fixes and Improvements
- Templates can now be used in multiple places. Thanks for the suggestion, Dokyung!
- Made the speaker change interface more intuitive. Thanks for your feedback, Sungmin and Bora!
