Session Assets

A meeting is not just what is said. The architecture diagram on the whiteboard, the slide deck someone shared, the CSV of the customer's current stack, the screenshot of the dashboard they are complaining about. All of it belongs with the session.

Drop any file into a session and Azynote keeps it there, right next to your notes and transcript.

Drop files anywhere in the session

Drag a file from Finder, from a browser, or from any other app onto the session view. While you are dragging, Azynote highlights the drop zone with a blue border and a "Drop files to upload" overlay. Release to add it.

You can drop into:

  • The Notes editor area
  • Anywhere in the main session pane
  • The Mini Player window (for adding files while you are in distraction-free mode)

Each asset lands in the Assets tabs of the session, grouped by type: Notes, Audio, Screenshots, Files.

Audio and video transcribe themselves

Drop an audio file (WAV, MP3, M4A) or a video file (MP4, MOV) and Azynote runs Whisper on it in the background. A few minutes later, the transcript appears as its own editable tab, right next to the file.

No button to press, no "transcribe this" step. It just happens.

One exception: if a live transcription is running, Azynote queues the dropped file and transcribes it once the live transcription stops. One transcription runs at a time to keep the machine responsive.

Screenshots during a meeting

This is the most underused capability. When someone shares a diagram, a dashboard, or a slide during a meeting:

  1. Take a macOS screenshot (Shift+Cmd+4 area, or Shift+Cmd+3 full screen).
  2. Drag the screenshot thumbnail from the bottom-right of your screen straight into the Azynote session.
  3. The image is now part of your session.

When you generate a OnePager, Azynote sends the screenshot to Gemini as visual context. Your OnePager can then reference "the architecture diagram presented" or "the dashboard they showed" accurately, instead of asking you to describe it in words.

Per-asset controls

Each asset card has:

  • Include in OnePager: a checkbox that controls whether this asset is sent to Gemini during generation. Useful when an attachment is supporting material but not something you want quoted.
  • Duplicate: make a -v2 copy, for example to iterate on a draft.
  • Delete: remove the asset from the session.
  • Preview: thumbnails for images, play-in-place for audio and video, open-in-default-app for documents.

The file name is set at upload time and stays as-is. If you drop two files with the same name, Azynote adds a -1, -2 suffix to avoid conflicts.

Good to know

  • Session-scoped: you have to be inside a session to drop files. Dropping on the workspace dashboard does not attach anywhere.
  • Hidden files are skipped: anything starting with . is ignored.
  • Mini Player works as a drop zone: you do not have to leave focus mode to add a file.
