This would be cool if it was a one time purchase. But the limitations and subscription cost ruin what could have been a great product
Could you recommend something better without the subscription???
I totally agree with you. The 300 free minutes aren't enough. The subscription cost on top of that is not good.
Theres a free option 300 mins a month
I agree with you. Other programs are better at this. The 18 dollars a month subscription fee is a turn-off!
This is awesome! I’m going to love this. Thank you man.
my father is interested in this device, but it having a 13 dollar fee... dont know if he is going to use it as much to be worth it.
i think there can just be an app that does this same trick, no need for an extra device.
I was thinking that too, but I was having trouble finding anything good/free. If you happen to see anything let me know!
But there isn’t….

Sorry this turned into such a wall of text, but…. Caffeine… 😂 I just ordered Plaud on Amazon.
Why?
Why Plaud instead of my phone or iPad?
Anytime I'm moving, and esp. when on a walk, bike ride, or driving, I always get flooded with ideas / remember things I need to do, get business ideas, take care of, etc. etc.
So, I pull out my phone, maybe capture the idea, but usually not; usually instead I get distracted by a notification, pop-up, etc.
EverNote is my digital brain / notepad.
So; I go to launch Evernote on my phone; maybe I succeed in opening EverNote, maybe it opens quickly, maybe it takes 15 seconds.
Maybe EverNote hasn't synced lately, so I have to exit / force quit, re-launch, wait for it to sync, THEN find the note again where i was going to type my ideas.
OK, I can't find the note I was going to type into...wait... did I already create a note, or did I just THINK about creating a note for this topic?
And wait again... don't I already have ANOTHER duplicate note about this topic from X months / years ago?
Knowing my ADHD brain, probably.... lets go search!.......
I'll spare you the rest of the boring details but that should give you the gist of it. What SHOULD be a simple, frictionless action; pulling the supercomputer connected to all the worlds knowledge out of my pocket & jotting down a short idea, instead turns into a black hole of distraction, notifications, etc. Sometimes I'm successful in jotting down my idea, very often not. It's a gamble.
I'm HOPING that with the Plaud, my life will instead look like this:
On a walk, enjoying the scenery & sunshine.
Have an idea.
Pull out plaud, press & hold button for 1-2 seconds.
Wait for & ensure Recording LED light comes on.
Say what I have to say,
Put plaud back into my pocket.
Done. (I HOPE!!!!!)
@@drjones762 I think for your use case it will be perfect. What I like about it is exactly that: how easy it is to just hit a button and record then have everything organized in the app to review later.
Great real world trial!
Why is everyone saying theres an on going fee? it looks like there's a free option
I do see that free option now. I don’t think that was always available.
Can you not have and pay for the ai function and just have the audio recordings for primary usage? More precisely recording phone calls
Recording phone calls will be included in iOS 18. Thanks for another good video 👍
That will notify the other party this wont
@@Cosmozic good point

I've pre-ordered the Limitless pendant for this use case, and am currently trying their Mac app as well - it does a decent job of summarizing conversations/meetings - would be interested in your comparison and thoughts.
Interesting I haven't seen that before I'll check it out!
WOW. Limitless sounds AMAZING!!! If it does half the things it advertises, that would be a game changer….!!! Post an update here if you remember… would love to hear about it!
You can just upload this to fathom ai ( I think )
Yes you can BUT only if you are running a zoom or Meets for example. The value of the Plaud Note is that it transcribes for 1) physical meetings 2) phone calls 3) video chats. Thats the unique value proposition.
FYI
Your affiliate link is broken
Thanks not sure what's going on with that :(
You should be more accurate about iOS and call recording, otherwise why bother doing a review?
First 🥇
You didn't mention anything about getting everyone's permission to be recorded. This is an illegal eavesdropping device without that. It doesn't need to be a hardware device either... unless they are just trying to bypass app store regulations on apps that do illegal things - like the aforementioned. HARD PASS if you don't want to be seen as a creep at best or get sued into oblivion at worst. (a lot of AI products are circumventing the law in bad faith by immediately translating the original recording/document/art into a different form then using that to generate from). It looks similar to recording devices that can be stuck to the underside of desks at work or between books in the home. There are far more useful and legal AI tools to do this WITH PERMISSION.
Ok sweetheart. Take a breath and research single-party consent laws. You actually might be living in a state with one!!!!
@@carlosdominguez3108well said!
@@carlosdominguez3108lol nice
The warning is given to you by Plaud when opening the app and setting up. Plus, depends on your state. Texas is not a 2 party state. I can record without anyone’s permission. What really bugs me is the fact we are being recorded by street cameras, businesses cameras, gosh even our phone take our data and sells it. No need to consent there, right? Food for thought
