SlateSlate vs Jamie: Which is better? (2026)
Jamie records meetings on your own Mac or Windows computer without a bot, but its pages don't describe live translation or an Apple Watch app.
TLDR: Slate wins if your meetings cross languages: it translates live in 60+ languages on iPhone and Mac, and it also records from Apple Watch. Jamie is better if your team uses Windows or Android, or wants notes sent to Notion, Google Docs or OneNote, or to Salesforce and HubSpot on its Pro plan. Both skip the meeting bot and record in person.
Neither app sends a bot into your call. The difference is what happens while people talk: Slate shows the original speech and its translation side by side, with speaker labels, on iPhone and Mac. That makes it useful for a call with a supplier abroad or a lecture in a second language.
On a Mac, Slate records Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Webex calls. For conversations in the room, start a recording on your iPhone or your Apple Watch. Afterwards you get an AI summary, can ask questions about the recording, and can share it as text or PDF. How it works.
