One-on-one notes thatremember last time
Team meetings have boards, tickets, and minutes. Your 1:1s have a half-filled notes doc and your memory of what you promised three weeks ago. Khint gives each person their own private work session: one AI action turns raw notes into agreements and action items, a recap opens the next 1:1, and the whole history stays in a local database on your machine.
The 1:1 problem is not the meeting,
it's the thread between meetings
A single 1:1 is easy. Twelve people times twenty-six fortnightly 1:1s a year is where it breaks: commitments made in week 3 quietly evaporate by week 9, the same blocker gets re-raised as if new, and the person across the table notices you forgot. Meeting recorders are the wrong tool here; most people would rightly object to a bot transcribing a conversation about their career. Khint takes a lighter route: it works only on the notes you typed, through its Agents and Memory pillars, and keeps every session on your machine rather than in a cloud archive.
A fortnightly 1:1, in five moves
Everything runs from one palette shortcut, in whatever app your notes already live.
Give each person their own Memory session
On the Memorypage, create one session per direct report or recurring 1:1: “1:1 · Sam”, “1:1 · Priya”. A session is a running container: every AI action you run while it is active is logged into it, and Khint keeps a compacted summary of what has landed there. Team ceremonies get a shared board; a 1:1 gets nothing by default. This is that missing thread.
Switch to the right person from the palette
Two minutes before the call, open the palette with Cmd+Shift+K. The header shows a small Memory chipwith the currently active session: click it, pick “1:1 · Sam”, done. No window juggling, no risk of Sam's notes landing in Priya's thread. You can also start a fresh session from the same chip if this is a first 1:1.
Open with what you agreed last time
On the Memory page, Copy recapputs the whole session, summary plus every entry, on your clipboard as paste-ready markdown in one click. Skim it before the call: the action items from last month, the concern they raised twice, the thing you promised to unblock. Opening a 1:1 with “last time we said” instead of “so, what's new” is most of what makes them feel worth having.
Turn raw notes into agreements and action items
Take notes during the call wherever you already type: a notes app, a doc, an email draft. Afterwards, select the mess, press Cmd+Shift+K, and run a saved Actionlike “Extract agreements and action items”. Actions can read the compacted context of the active session, so the output connects to previous 1:1s: a topic that keeps resurfacing reads as a pattern, not a one-off. The result is logged into the session, and the thread grows by itself.
Send the follow-up while it is still warm
Run a second action to draft the follow-up note: what we agreed, who owns what, when we check in. With Gmail connected on the Integrations page, the palette's Create draftrow lands it in your drafts for a final human pass. When an action item is really a work item, the same palette writes it to Jira or Linear, so “I'll create a ticket for that” happens before you stand up.
Come review season, the thread pays out
Six months of 1:1 sessions is six months of receipts: what was agreed, what shipped, what kept getting blocked and by whom. When you sit down to write feedback, Copy recap hands you each person's history as clean markdown instead of a memory exercise, the same mechanism that powers an automatic work journal for your own work. And it composes with the rest of your toolkit: the interview feedback flow uses the same select-and-run pattern on hiring notes, and action-item extraction covers the meetings that do have ten people in the room.
Common questions
Where do my 1:1 notes end up?
Memory sessions live in a local database on your machine; they are never synced to Khint's cloud. That matters more for 1:1s than for any other meeting, because these notes are about people. The only text that leaves your device is the selection you explicitly run an AI action on, at the moment you run it. Nothing is recorded in the background, and there is no transcript: Khint works on the notes you typed, when you ask it to.
How do I keep each person's 1:1s separate?
Create one Memory session per person on the Memory page, named after them. Khint has one active session at a time, and the palette shows which one in a small chip next to the search box: click it to switch to the right person's session before the meeting, or to create a new one without leaving the palette. Every action you run while it is active logs into that person's thread, so histories never blur together.
Can Khint draft the follow-up message too?
Yes. Connect Gmail from the Integrations page and the palette gains a Create draft row: run your follow-up action on the notes, then hand the result to Gmail as a draft you finish in your own words. There is also a Send email row, and it is deliberately careful: Khint gathers the recipient and subject, shows a preview, and sends only after you explicitly confirm. A 1:1 follow-up should never be an accidental send.
Do I have to write the AI prompts myself?
No. In the Action editor, describe what you want in one line, something like 'extract agreements, action items with owners, and topics to revisit from my 1:1 notes', and press Generate: Khint drafts the prompt for you, and Improve refines it in place later. Give the action its own keyboard shortcut and the whole flow is select notes, press keys, read the result.
