What a physical voice to text device does differently

Every conversation captured in writing. No live captions to follow.

Plaud Note Pro is a physical AI note taker that records conversations and delivers a full written transcript you can read afterward. Live captioning apps like Google Live Transcribe and Apple Live Captions produce real-time text but often miss words in fast speech and leave no clean searchable record once the session ends. Plaud Note Pro captures everything at the source, processes the audio with AI, and returns a corrected, speaker-labeled transcript ready to read at your own pace.


3 artifacts, ready when the session ends

01

Speaker-labeled transcript

Every word captured and attributed by speaker. Searchable, timestamped, and readable on your phone or computer at any time.

02

AI summary

Key points, decisions, and action items extracted automatically from the conversation. Read the summary first to find what matters most.

03

Shareable written record

Export the transcript to Notes, Google Docs, or email. Share with a support person or keep for your own reference.

Works wherever conversations happen

Doctor appointments and medical consultationsUniversity lectures and classroom sessionsJob interviews and HR meetingsTeam meetings and client callsLegal and government appointmentsIn-person conversations in any settingAny situation where a written record helps

Plaud Note Pro sits on a table or fits in a pocket. No app needs to run on screen during the conversation.

Workflow fit

Is Plaud Note Pro the voice to text device that fits your situation?

Most voice to text tools produce live captions during a conversation. Plaud Note Pro takes a different approach: record now, read the transcript later. Check whether that fits your situation.

What you need
Plaud handles it
Why it works
You need an accurate written record of what your doctor said so you can review it after the appointment
Plaud Note Pro records the full consultation and delivers a speaker-labeled transcript. Read it at home instead of relying on memory or handwritten notes taken under pressure. Inform all participants and confirm consent before recording.
You attend lectures or classes and need a transcript to study from instead of relying on a note-taker or incomplete live captions
Plaud Note Pro captures the full lecture and produces a searchable transcript. Review it at your own reading pace and search for any term you need.
You participate in job interviews or business meetings where following fast speech in real time is difficult
Plaud Note Pro records the full session. The transcript gives you a complete record to review. You can focus on the conversation rather than rushing to capture every word.
You need a transcript in a language other than English
Plaud Note Pro transcribes in 112 languages. The transcript is produced in the language of the recording with speaker identification.
You want a transcript you can search and share, not just replay audio
Plaud Note Pro produces text output from every recording. Search any word, jump to any moment, and share the transcript as a document without sharing the audio file.
You prefer a dedicated device rather than keeping a phone app running on screen during a conversation
Plaud Note Pro operates as a standalone device at 2.99mm thin. Place it on the table and focus on the conversation. No phone screen needs to stay active.

Motivation shows up through interest, novelty, challenge, urgency, and passion, a pattern researchers call an interest-based nervous system.
