Catch up on your team's work, then act on itBehind after time away or back-to-back meetings? Ask Tana what your team decided and what is on you, then turn it into filed follow-ups in the same chat, each one reviewed as a proposal before it lands.
Walk into every meeting preparedAsk Tana to draft your meeting prep from your team's record, capture it as a reusable skill so it runs the same way every time, then hand that skill to an agent on a schedule so a prep is waiting before every meeting.
Get outcomes to the right people and tools straight from the meetingAn outcome is finished work. While the meeting runs, ask the AI to update your proposal with what the customer just said, file their feature request in Linear, Jira, or GitHub, send them the updated proposal, post the summary to Slack, and pin what is still open before you leave.

NewThe voice agent works in the background, on several things at once. Ask the agent for something mid-meeting and it goes off and does it while the conversation carries on: look something up, draft or update a document, find related notes, or act in a tool you've connected. Several requests can be running at the same time. Each is acknowledged as you make it, and the result comes back at a natural pause rather than over whoever is speaking. It also follows more of the meeting than it used to, including the day's agenda and the meeting's pinned items, captured outcomes and shared screen, so there is less to explain before you ask.
NewAsk the voice agent to present a document. Say "present the risks doc" and the voice agent puts a document pinned to the meeting on the shared stage, the same way the Present button does, guests and access prompts included. "Stop presenting" takes back off a document you put up yourself. It knows what's on stage, whoever put it there, so you can ask about what everyone is looking at.
NewSet up a daily brief in Slack. A card on Today walks you through creating a daily brief agent. Each morning it reads your calendar and recent meetings and sends you one Slack DM: today's meetings, what happened since yesterday, preparation worth doing, and tasks or follow-ups you may have dropped. It covers only meetings you actually attend, not everything your account can see. The agent is yours to keep, so you can open it and change the prompt, the tools, or the schedule, and Tana won't overwrite it. It sends to you and cannot message anyone else, and it needs your personal Slack account connected. Link it too if your Slack email differs from your Tana sign-in, so the brief can find you.
NewSearch understands a plain-language question. Typing something like "meetings with Sarah last week" now turns into filter pills automatically, with a sparkle icon on the search field marking an interpreted query, instead of only matching on keywords. Edit a filter by hand and it becomes your own; the sentence drops away and the filters stay.
NewA formatting toolbar when you select text. Select text in a document with a mouse or trackpad and a formatting bar appears. Turn into changes the block to text, a heading, a bulleted, numbered or to-do list, a blockquote, or a code block, and bold, italic, strikethrough and inline code sit alongside it, with whatever is already applied shown as a pressed button. Nothing moved: the slash menu, Cmd+K and the keyboard shortcuts still do all of it.
NewSave a search as a document, and pin it. A search you keep redoing can be kept. Set up the filters in global search and save the result as its own Search document. Pin it like any other document and it's one click away, re-running fresh each time you open it.
