I'm looking for an app that I can talk my thoughts and notes into and it will transcribe what I am saying and put some basic structure or summary on.

I write articles and often I work better when I think out loud, so Iwa not a notes app I speak my thoughts for the article and I want it to turn what I am saying into the text. I do not need it to re-write it completely just some basic corrections if I,n saying umm and ahh etc to remove.

Does such an app exist?

Edit: I now use www.ramblefix.com and love it.

I don't want something that joins my calls. I just want a notetaker that saves AI notes and/or transcription locally for me to review later. Any recommendations? Happy to pay

What’s the best AI note-taking app right now for students/meetings? One with both recording and uploading capabilities for transcription and with AI “chat”?

Maybe something that uses GPT-4, since that seems to be the best working LLM.

I’ve used Otter; the transcription was pretty good, but its chat was absolute trash.

Hi folks - I’m looking for a note-taking AI app that can transcribe audio and differentiate between speakers.

I’ve been using Apple’s "record audio" feature in the Notes app, but it doesn’t separate or identify different speakers.

I'm looking for the ability to quickly figure out what a specific person said in a given meeting.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

What’s the best AI note-taking app right now for students/meetings? One with both recording and uploading capabilities for transcription and with AI “chat”?

Maybe something that uses GPT-4 or similarly advanced models. A plus if it has an AI text humanizer like Phrasly AI or UnAIMyText plugin or similar features built in. I’ve used Otter and it’s great for transcription but I didn’t like the chat feature.

I just want something to listen and take notes on a public congressional hearing, which I can only access via a browser. It seems like Otter only works with specific meeting apps i.e. zoom, teams - but please let me know if I'm wrong about that and how to configure it. I would prefer that it can listen directly to the app or even the computer audio as a whole, instead of relying on listening through the computer microphone.

Alternatively, if there's a way to trick my computer into treating an app as an audio input that i can select for something like Voicenotes or another simple AI note-taker, that would work as well

Hey everyone,

AI note-taking is becoming more popular recently, basically instead of writing notes, you record conversations and it takes notes for you.

Any of you have any experience in this area or any recommendations for an app for iOS?

I'm considering between Otter AI and Flownote AI

Would love to hear your thoughts, cheers!

I want to know about a free AI tools which can take notes, give summaries, key takeaways, AI chatbot. Something like Otter.ai but which is free.

Hey everyone.

I'm really grateful for any suggestions you might have. I'm looking for alternatives to a website that's going to be discontinued soon, and I'd love to hear about other options that might work just as well.

Being a student in a foreign language program, I've always struggled with effectively taking notes during my lectures. That is, until I stumbled upon this incredible and FREE AI-powered note-taking tool, strut.so that completely transformed my study process. Having an intelligent assistant integrated right into my workspace was an absolute game-changer. It allowed me to seamlessly move between my notes, rewrite them in a more understandable way, summarize key points, and even generate quizzes.

What really set this platform apart was how it was designed specifically with note-takers like myself in mind; with a wide range of features to help organize the writing process. It was cloud-based, making it easy to collaborate with friends and share notes. I quickly became attached to this site, using it daily and loving every aspect of it.

However, my perfect note-taking experience came to an unexpected end when I received a notification that the developers had decided to shut down the project. This was quite surprising, considering they had just released a new update a couple of weeks prior.

As I searched for alternatives, I realized that this tool had been largely underrated and barely mentioned anywhere. There were no Reddit posts about it, and the only online presence was a Product Hunt page and a Twitter account.

I'm really bummed about this, because it was just perfect for my needs (and now I've got to go back to relying on the free Microsoft 365). I've tried searching for alternatives, but haven't found anything remotely similar.

If you have any recommendations, I would greatly appreciate your help. Thank you in advance...

Hi Guys, recently I was searching for audio-based note-taking tools and came across few audionotes.app , audiopen.ai, and talknotes.io. Which one do you use and why?

Hey everyone, we’re building thedrive.ai, a productivity and note-taking app where you can store files, take notes, ask questions, and even chat with friends.

🚀 We just rolled out a new feature: You can now upload audio files, and we’ll automatically generate free AI-powered transcripts and smart notes. Plus, everything is indexed, so you can search through your files and even ask questions about them.

This is perfect for students, researchers, podcasters, or anyone who works with audio. Would love to hear your thoughts—what’s missing? What would make this better for your workflow?

Hey community! I recently open-sourced Hyprnote — a smart notepad built for people with back-to-back meetings.

In a nutshell, Hyprnote is a note-taking app that listens to your meetings and creates an enhanced version by combining the raw notes with context from the audio. It runs on local AI models, so you don’t have to worry about your data going anywhere.

Hope you enjoy the project!

I'm really wanting to move to ai notes. I need something that will allow me to turn text into notes, but also something that allows recordings that can be turned into notes. I also don't want to break the bank. Would love some feedback here.

Edit: Been using this note taker, records and turns meetings into clean notes automatically. Super low effort.

Hi guys and girls,

I just wanted to hear from you guys what your experience is with the apps on zoom for taking notes and summaries?

I tried FireFlies whhich was nice but my boss dooesn't want to spend 10 dollars a month : /.... so we're looking for the best free or close to free options on the zoom apps marketplace for taking notes and making summaries of meetings.

Please let me know what's been working for you guys! Thanks!

I need an AI tool I can use to transcribe some meeting recordings I have, so I can hunt back through the notes like a written knowledge base. I’m trying to rapidly learn a new system and am struggling to remember everything and also connect all the dots.

I’m specifically looking for an AI note-taking and transcribing tool, but am also open to any other tools you’d recommend to help me learn someone else’s code base as quickly as possible.

What are your recommendations, reddit?

I’ve been trying out AI meeting note-taker apps mainly for face-to-face 1-on-1s (not Zoom or online calls). Figured I’d share in case anyone’s looking for something similar.

1. Bluedot ai note taker. This one’s been the standout. It records in the background, no bot joining and works whether you’re on Zoom, Meet, Teams, or just sitting across the table from someone. Handles both audio and video, supports 70+ languages, and the transcripts are super accurate. The summaries actually feel like summaries, not just reworded transcripts. Bonus: you can upload recordings too. TL;DR: Best all rounder if you want something that works for both in-person and online meetings without any “bot in the room” awkwardness.

2. Otter ai Still the household name. Great for online team calls and has loads of integrations, but sends a bot to join meetings. Solid accuracy in English, less so for other languages. TL;DR: Great if you’re English-only and mostly remote, maybe overkill for solo/in-person.

3. Minutes AI Meeting Note Taker Polished design and decent AI chat, but multilingual accuracy isn’t great. TL;DR: Pretty UI, works okay for English-only notes.

4. Tablo AI Meeting Notes Feels like it could be a native OS app, simple and clean. Good multilingual support and follow up features. TL;DR: Strong pick for multilingual 1-on-1s, but less feature-rich than Bluedot.

5. Sona Insight Best design of the bunch, but kept failing after recordings. TL;DR: Gorgeous app, but reliability isn’t there yet.

Anyone else using something for in-person meetings that can rival Bluedot and otter?

I have frantically been searching for an open source alternative to fireflies AI and other note taking apps that can listen to Teams, Google Meets and Zoom. Meetings usually have a ton of propriatery information that is being shared and I would like to control who gets access to the information.

Note: It needs to be open source using something like Ollama or LM Studio in the back so that I can run it locally.

Preferrably want to set it as a server that can be called in like an assistant and listen to the meeting.

Anyone know of anything similar to this available open source?

I have searched the whole forum without finding anything.

Basically a professor created 4 1.5h “supplementary videos” and I’d like to skim through them. Watching at x1.5 or x2 didn’t work.

I've been answering multiple zoom calls and google meetup calls almost every night. My primitive ass is using Ipad with apple pencil to take notes digitally about the meeting on my Ipad?

Is there a way I could automate the meeting where the AI could like just list all the important parts of the meeting and will create a minutes of meeting report at the end of the call?

I've been losing time and sacrificing my efficiency with my primitive method.

Please help.

I struggle a lot with taking notes during lectures and it's not the best way I learn cause I don't end up actually absorbing anything. I learn best when I can focus entirely on the lecture though still need to review the notes later to study.

ChatGPT record would be great, but I don't have a Mac so I need something that will work on Windows. My lectures are 50 - an hour and twenty minutes long. Are there any affordable AI note takers where I can have to record to lecture then have it create bullet pointed notes in the format and level of detail that I need?

I have 11 hours of lectures a week so I'd need something that can handle 2,700 transcription minutes a month so Otter.ai doesn't work unfortunately.
