At Read AI we’re redefining how teams collaborate by bringing intelligence to every conversation. Our platform supercharges productivity across meetings, messages, and email, so work gets done faster, smarter, and with better focus. We integrate seamlessly with tools like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Slack, and more, helping teams stay aligned and move forward, whether they’re in the same room or across time zones.
Backed by $81 million in funding from Smash Capital, Madrona, and Goodwater Capital, Read AI is growing. If you're excited to shape the future of AI-powered collaboration and want to make an impact at a product-focused startup, we’d love to meet you.
The Role:
Our desktop application today captures meeting audio and surfaces transcripts and reports. Our intent is to turn it into the control center for Read meetings - where people prepare beforehand, capture during, and generate outcomes after, in one unified experience.
The app is built in Rust with Tauri, with a React frontend, and the hardest problems live at the boundary with the operating system: system audio capture across two very different permission and device models, on-device processing, connections to external hardware for better capture quality, and the release path that keeps installed software healthy on
