What is Claap?

Claap turns calls into promptable columns — and hands the whole table to your agent over MCP.

Claap is a meeting recorder that has spent this window becoming a structured data layer for revenue teams. AI Fields, shipped in July, lets a user write a prompt and get a typed column — a rating, a status, a text value — computed across every call in a meeting or deal view, auto-run on new calls and synced to the CRM. The month before, those same tables and columns were made readable by Claude and any other MCP client, and field enrichment gained deeper HubSpot targets. Around that core sit capture and reporting expansions: mobile apps for in-person meetings, automatic capture of contact email alongside calls, and Deal and Company reports built on the conversation record rather than the CRM stage.

What is Asana?

Asana embeds AI into Slack threads and closes the rich-text gap with Notion

Asana spent the past two months closing content fidelity gaps: rich text in custom fields, syntax highlighting, and text highlighting address years of complaints from technical users who needed more than plain text. Threaded Comments resolves a structural UX problem in task conversations that had teams scrolling through flat comment chains. HIPAA compliance for AsanaGov extends the enterprise compliance footprint into regulated healthcare workflows.

Claap turns calls into promptable columns — and hands the whole table to your agent over MCP.

◆ Current state

Claap is a meeting recorder that has spent this window becoming a structured data layer for revenue teams. AI Fields, shipped in July, lets a user write a prompt and get a typed column — a rating, a status, a text value — computed across every call in a meeting or deal view, auto-run on new calls and synced to the CRM. The month before, those same tables and columns were made readable by Claude and any other MCP client, and field enrichment gained deeper HubSpot targets. Around that core sit capture and reporting expansions: mobile apps for in-person meetings, automatic capture of contact email alongside calls, and Deal and Company reports built on the conversation record rather than the CRM stage.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc is unusually consistent — every release widens the input corpus or sharpens the output schema. Calls, then email, then in-person meetings recorded on a phone all flow into one deal timeline; on the other side, insights hardened into typed columns, then into user-defined prompted columns, then into something an external agent can read directly. That last move matters most: Claap is positioning as a source its customers' own AI reads, not only a dashboard people open, which is a different competitive posture than a call recorder that keeps its analysis inside its own UI. The feed also emits duplicate posts for several releases, so raw entry counts overstate the shipping cadence.

◆ Prediction

The next step suggested by these entries is writing rather than reading — AI Fields that trigger actions or CRM updates on a computed value, not just sync a column — since the prompt, the schedule and the CRM connection are all already in place.

Asana embeds AI into Slack threads and closes the rich-text gap with Notion

◆ Current state

Asana spent the past two months closing content fidelity gaps: rich text in custom fields, syntax highlighting, and text highlighting address years of complaints from technical users who needed more than plain text. Threaded Comments resolves a structural UX problem in task conversations that had teams scrolling through flat comment chains. HIPAA compliance for AsanaGov extends the enterprise compliance footprint into regulated healthcare workflows.

◆ Where it's heading

The @mention Asana in Slack feature is the clearest direction signal: Asana wants to be the task layer that captures work from wherever conversations happen. Combined with Pages (the upgraded Notes), Asana is positioning as a full workspace — docs, tasks, timesheets, and AI — rather than a pure project manager. The parallel enterprise compliance push (HIPAA, multiple approvers in timesheets) suggests a deliberate motion to lock in regulated verticals while AI handles casual capture.

◆ Prediction

The Slack integration will expand to include status updates and project summaries without leaving Slack. Asana's AI is likely to gain ambient capture — parsing thread context automatically rather than requiring explicit @mention — as the product competes with Linear and ClickUp for AI-first teams.
