Good to know

Questions, answered.

We use Sana for search. Does Sauna replace it?

Sauna searches and recalls across your tools too, but its job is to act on what it finds — draft, file, reply, follow up. For pure enterprise search and meeting recall, Sana is built for that.

Does Sauna handle meetings?

Sauna can pull context, draft notes, and follow up on action items across your tools. Its focus is doing the work, not being a dedicated meeting recorder.
