What it is
A meeting and interview assistant that takes notes and supplies real-time answers during a call. It positions itself around meetings generally, with interviews as a major use case, and it knows your resume and the company you are talking to so that answers have context.
Free on your own keys
Natively AI is free for personal, educational and non-commercial use if you supply your own API keys from an AI provider or run local models through Ollama. You pay the provider for what you use, or nothing beyond your own hardware with local models. As of October 2026, a Pro licence costs $39 a year or $79 one-time, and hosted AI plans, where Natively runs the models for you, cost $8, $15, $25 or $35 a month.
Its code is public, but its licence, the Natively Personal Use Source License v1.0, makes it source-available rather than open source. It runs on Windows 10/11 and macOS 12 or later; there is no Linux build, and its README says Linux isn't supported yet.
What it does
During a call it offers answers to what has just been asked, along with options to clarify, follow up, or recap, and you can ask it anything directly. The notes function runs alongside, so you leave with a record as well as having had help in the moment.
It versions its releases publicly, which suggests ongoing maintenance.
What to check before relying on it
The product now has its own domain, heynatively.com, and its older natively.software address redirects there. Before you enter payment details for a Pro licence or a hosted plan, confirm refund and cancellation terms in writing.
It also does not publish a list of supported meeting platforms or coding assessment platforms, and its download count is self-reported. We have not treated that figure as evidence.
Its marketing leads on concealment claims. That framing is the vendor's own and we describe the product rather than repeat it.

Alternatives worth comparing
Our comparison page is CoPilot Interview vs Natively AI. For other generalist meeting assistants, see Cluely Review and Parakeet AI Review.
Disclosed alternative: CoPilot Interview is interview-specific and native to Windows and macOS. Neither product ships a Linux build as of October 2026, so if you are on Linux, neither will run natively for you, and we would rather say so.
Frequently asked questions
Does Natively AI work on Linux?
No, not as of October 2026. It runs on Windows 10/11 and macOS 12 or later, and its README says Linux isn't supported yet. If you work on Linux, check its GitHub page for news before planning around it.
Is Natively AI legit?
It is a working product with published releases and an active version history, and it has its own domain, heynatively.com. One thing is worth noting before you pay: its download count is self-reported. That is not disqualifying, but it is a reason to confirm refund and cancellation terms in writing.
Is Natively AI free?
Yes, for personal, non-commercial use. As of October 2026 it is free if you bring your own API keys or run local models through Ollama, and you pay your AI provider for what you use. A Pro licence costs $39 a year or $79 one-time, and hosted AI plans, where Natively runs the models for you, cost $8, $15, $25 or $35 a month.
Does it take meeting notes as well as answering questions?
Yes, both run together: it takes notes through the call while offering real-time answers, with options to clarify, follow up or recap. That makes it useful beyond interviews, in the same way a general meeting assistant is.
Is Natively AI good for coding interviews?
It does not publish a list of supported coding assessment platforms, so there is nothing to verify in advance. For live coding rounds specifically, a tool that names your assessment platform gives you something concrete to rely on.
How does it know about my resume?
The product takes your resume and company context so that answers reference your actual background rather than generic advice. Context handling of this kind is standard across the better tools in this category; what varies is how much you can upload and how the tool uses it, so test it with your own material.
Want an interview-specific assistant?
CoPilot Interview is interview-specific, with a permanent free tier and model choice per question.
