Plaud Note Full Review - Is it worth it??

[@JasonPepino]

I refuse to buy products that use custom charging cables because if you lose that one cable, you're screwed until you can get a replacement.

[@JJohnson313]

It seems pretty thin. Doesn’t look like it’s big emojis for a usbc connection. You think they should make the device thicker?

[@steerheadcattle]

How close do you have to be to professor giving lecture for it to pick it up well???

[@MikeB-u6w]

I don't get it. If the audio is sent to the cloud for the actual AI part... this is just an audio recorder that sticks on your phone? So.... all the "magic" is in the app?

[@frankpiantini1164]

If this device is interacting with chat GPT, does that mean that all of your meetings, that could contain proprietary information, are flowing into ChatGPT? That would be bad, I think.

[@ilianos]

No, when you use the API (like this company does), it is NOT the same as using the free version of ChatGPT (where your input can be used for training of future models).

[@theaimuse]

Hi Frank, That is not how ChatGPT works. While it can work with what you feed it - there is no storing of your information in any form that can be deciphered by anyone in any way. So basically what you feed it can help it understand and interpret future input but that knowledge can in no way be traced back to you as it has no link to the origin of the knowledge it acquired. Hope this helps.

[@bigm1677]

Just put in somebody info nah yuzzz

[@MM3Soapgoblin]

The other people responding to your comment haven't read the fine print and clearly don't work with enterprise deployment of AI. YES, anything you send to ChatGPT either directly on their app/web interface or through API is stored by OpenAI for "potential future training data and compliance reporting". It's in the fine print and they do have a seperate agreement that they do on an as needed basis for customers that can't have their data stored by a 3rd party (like HIPAA compliance). But those agreements are a PIA to get and I promise that PLAUD does not have one for their product.

[@mrartdeco]

@@theaimusethats what they said. Nah my data are not that precious anyway

[@darrenstettner5381]

Kinda makes you wonder why there aren’t any apps that allow your phone to do it directly. You’re phone arrests has a microphone and internet access. If it can live stream video a phone can also stream/record sound.

[@opiedoe1]

There are apps iteans ribs is one but $6.99 a month

[@opiedoe1]

Itranscribe

[@christopherdaniel8001]

Can the transcription be 'uploaded' or put into Microsoft Word so such a document may be printed?

[@drjones762]

It looks like there are MANY ways to export both the recording, and the text transcription. i believe you can export as; .txt, .pdf, *maybe* DOC, then you can export the recording as .MP3 & I think a couple more formats. You could probably use Zapier / IFTTT to automate parts of this, but you'd probably need to export text / summary to an email, email to yourself, then copy/paste into Word. Again; here's where Zapier / IFTTT would probably be very helpful with this thing.......

[@BluCherri]

Does it only allow a certain amount of recordings? Can you do a video about that and cost for the app?

[@myvoice31]

I wish the review should include if you were at your desk and in a meeting on teams/zoom etc, can you turn it on to record the whole meeting???

[@JJohnson313]

Any audio coming through the phone would be recorded. If in a physical room/meeting, your iPhone will always record what’s going on what’s around you.

[@MondoMortgages]

Try fathom ai Great for teams and zoom

[@StarkVandalez]

cant this just all be done with an app? assuming you need the app for plaud to work.. why not just have a microphone attachement and an app

[@dennycrane2938]

Probably but it seems this has its own power and doesn’t require to unlock your phone first.

[@Waponiw00]

Phones cannot record phone calls. Ios and Android block that ability in the api

[@edwinvanbellen6790]

@@Waponiw00 I wanted to see this working. But this review failed to show.

[@Waponiw00]

@@edwinvanbellen6790 the way it will work with this device is the fact that it's actually external to an app on the phone with regard to the recording portion. It's physically a microphone pressed up against your phone, so Android and iOS aren't aware that the phone call is being recorded. That's why an external device like this would be required

[@carlosog3600]

@@Waponiw00tape a call is an app that you can use to record phone calls

[@phamjack8480]

For phone call mode, do we need to turn on speaker to make it able to record the other side's voice ? Im curious how it get the voice input of the other side?

[@DrGabrielOLUWAKOTANMI]

Can I download the transcript to my computer? and in MS Word?

[@jnelson854]

Maybe show it recording someone on the other side of the conversation. It recording you is pointless.

[@ashumatak]

I am also confuse about this feature, they mention on the website that both side conversation will be recorded.

[@drjones762]

Uh......are you joking??? You've never wanted to capture your own thougts?? Take notes?? Talk yourself through a problem??? I get all my best ideas when I'm moving around; walking, driving, bike riding, etc; something like this is bordering on a miracle for me...!!! I already use an a.i. transcription app for exactly this, but I have to pull out my phone - or better, my iPad, so it doesn't get disrupted by an alarm / alert or when the phone rings, launch the app, dismiss any pop-UPS or distractions / junk, etc. etc. No; one-person transcription / dictation like this is BETTER than anything else, because there are a zillion a.i. apps that already do 98% of what Plaud does for phone / zoom / teams recordings.

[@_sayandas]

​@@drjones762So just because while recording on your phone MAYBE an alert will pop up which can dIsTrAcT you from your so important task of cApTuRiNg tHouGhTs, you need to buy a $160 device? Such a 🤡, just enable DND. Spend your brain and money on real problems blud not on imaginary ones

[@_sayandas]

​​@@drjones762You can just turn on DND for a few minutes while recording on your phone instead of buying a $160 device or writing a whole paragraph on youtube pookie bear

[@timelessadventurer]

@@drjones762yup, I agree! My best thoughts would come when I’m running, cycling, or hiking!

[@RossReadyHomeLoans]

So how does this work with using Airpods for phone calls?

[@DarthStacker]

Do I actually need the Plaud hardware? Is there a regular app that I'll do that for me? Notability can record a convo on my iPad. Any idea how to do this without paying for the device?

[@LokeshThakur]

why is no one reviewing phone calls?

[@SeidenthalSteve]

Could Samsung's Galaxy Ai on the new S24 Series render this obsolete?

[@TerraMagnus]

So my AirPods are useless for phone calls with this?

[@TobiasHam]

Will it record without the phone?

[@d_n_u]

Records without phone

[@joe62845]

Does it only work on your phone? Part of me wouldn't mind using something like this for work, but I use a mac and it would be great if it could record my teams meetings. I currently use a headset, but would stink to have to make the sound come from my computer speakers rather than the headset.

[@ArpitJoshiAJ]

Otter is really good for that, just the free version should do

[@khas01_earthling]

Apple notes also does this. Does Plaud AI need s paid for chatgpt account or will it work with free version?

[@jamesking1461]

Great - But you don't talk about the most important thing! HOW DO YOU DOWNLOAD THE NOTES/TRANSCRIPT TEXT TO A DOCUMENT?

[@SHAKA-NEU-LU]

Now with that chat gpt or transcribing, wouldn’t voice memos work?

[@mattbaz]

Does it record phone calls - or just on speaker phone?

[@rinleeds]

Not sure about this product. Wish there was a pause button so rather than hundreds of files, a book summary you are dictating in bits can all be in one file. Also don't like each time stamp. I just cut and paste text and not have any of that noise.

[@dougnbodie]

So tired of everyone saying "Lets Go"....It's todays Bud Light's "What's Up" from the late 90's early 2000's.

[@914Rocky]

Careful. Make sure you are allowed to record and that the folks you are recording know that they have been recorded because of wiretap laws.

[@alvior025]

does it only for English?

[@TonyMV74]

multiple languages

[@frm108]

You are missing the small piece with USB port! What is it FOR?!!

[@allen6780]

I don't see why I couldn't just do all of this with an app on the phone itself?? Why do I need another device?

[@justinseans]

The main thing, I guess, is the software interface. Since you could just record your stuff and have whatever AI you want transcribe and do things to it yourself. The convenience thing is nice, I guess. I could see Apple customers liking it since they like paying extra for stuff.

[@TheRealJoshW]

Used it for a month and then it just stopped working. Cannot charge it, connect my phone or have it turn on anymore 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@TobiasHam]

Does it only record on the phone?

[@TonyMV74]

Also within the device

[@hassanbenabdelali6287]

how many languages does it recognize?

[@Daytwoo]

So it only captures you and not anyone else on the call?!

[@garette8672]

it has a vibration detector which can detect the vibrations of your device's speakers during a phone call

[@martinszulc8192]

Why is your video maxing out at 720P?

[@ashleyjaytanna1953]

Should have wireless charging. Doing so will ensure that the device is leaching battery from the phone. As long as the phone is on its charged...

[@BaconEggUSA]

You didn’t talk about the price and subscription fees ???

[@MicahCallough]

Not usbc boo-boo! I hate cords of many types that I need to carry.

[@BrandonLovoi]

Doesn’t a modern iPhone transcribe pretty well by itself?

[@amyhunter4630]

I’m extremely hearing impaired and west hearing aids that are Bluetooth. Does this record all conversations in a phone call? Both sides? When the phone isn’t on speakerphone. Like when it’s just a normal call.

[@chrancylewhern4443]

You kind of glossed over a Hugly importantant piece of info....the subscription pretty disappointing. You can only use 300mins a month for free and for $79 its still unlimited only 1200 minutes. That's pretty weak. For $ 79 so long as I'm off loading storage I should be able to use unlimited. There's no reason why they have to govern you other then a cash grab.

[@CustomAdventurist]

Unfortunately when i made the video they were still in Kickstarter and didn’t have the subscription yet!

[@Mandakins347]

Wonderful applicatuin revieaw. Very positive review. You marketed to your target audience or met yout Aim .. great work. My high-performance ADHD brain felt nurished by both the content and the respect to the ability to digest. I appreciated the speed of delivery (audio/visual/dynamic-- you engaged me of multiple levels employing various methods/approaches)while also accomplishing the anticipation... difficult to achieve unless highly capable and confident skill are present. I feel inspired and motivated.

I can see several great uses. If you take a college class, you can record every lecture and then obtain summary notes. Then sell these on campus for say $100 bucks?
