Lives where you talk
Beagle is a teammate in Slack and Microsoft Teams, not a tab you switch to. It reads the channels it is invited to and answers in the thread.
Otter captures the meeting. Beagle does what the meeting decided - drafting the follow-up, updating the record, and chasing the action item in the channel.
