> 1. Install Amurex from the Chrome Web Store

Wishing the project well, but this is where it stops for me unfortunately.

Are there any similar tools that aren't browser dependent?

Same. I am pretty relaxed about privacy. But browser extensions are usually a hard pass for me. I grudgingly installed 2. An ad blocker and 1Password. It would take a lot for me to install a third. I usually do not trust browser extensions.
It is open source so you can inspect the code :D

We might come up with something like this ;) What platform do you use for meetings? Or these some other issue for it being made for Chrome?

I'd rather something like this either:

1. Work outside of the browser altogether (i.e., be built as an app for the OS), or 2. Integrate directly into the service it is targeting (i.e., G Suite add-ons, etc.)

I may be in the minority.

I understand that this is your preference. But I still don't understand why do you prefer that instead.
