What if while you were discussing where to have dinner with a group of friends, your iPad instantly pulled up menus for the restaurants you were talking about? Or, when talking to a friend about what to do on your upcoming vacation, photos and websites for some of your friend’s suggestions showed up on your screen?

That’s the idea behind MindMeld, a new app from San Francisco technology startup Expect Labs. The company is working on a unique technology platform that merges real-time communication with state-of-the-art language analysis and information retrieval.

Available later this fall, the iPad app supports high-quality group calling, and analyzes the things said in that call to bring up information on the screen while you’re chatting.

A little more advanced than Siri or Google Now, the service doesn’t wait for you to ask it to search, it just searches in the background while you’re carrying on a normal conversation.
