Plaud Note is a pocket-sized AI recording device built for professionals who want to stay focused in meetings and phone calls without scrambling to take notes. At just 3mm thin and 30 grams, it fits in a wallet, clips magnetically to the back of a phone, and starts recording with a single press.
The device works in two modes: attached magnetically to a smartphone to capture phone calls through vibration sensing, or as a standalone recorder for in-person meetings and interviews. Every recording is stored on 64GB of internal memory — up to 480 hours of audio — and synced automatically to the Plaud app for transcription, summarisation, and search.
Powered by OpenAI Whisper with GPT-4o and Claude integration, the AI converts audio into structured text with high accuracy across 112 languages, identifies individual speakers, and generates formatted summaries from a library of 10,000+ professional templates. All recordings are protected by AES-256 encryption and the platform is compliant with ISO 27001, GDPR, SOC 2, and HIPAA.
Key Features:
Phone Call Recording Without Apps or Permissions A built-in Vibration Conduction Sensor (VCS) records phone calls by detecting vibrations from the phone's chassis when the device is magnetically attached. This bypasses the limitations of software-based recording apps, which are often interrupted by incoming notifications or app switching. The result is a clean, uninterrupted recording of both sides of any call.
Transcription in 112 Languages with Speaker Labels Audio is transcribed with up to 95% accuracy in standard recording conditions, with automatic language detection and the ability to distinguish between multiple speakers. You can also add custom vocabulary to improve accuracy for industry-specific terminology, brand names, or technical jargon.
AI Summaries from 10,000+ Professional Templates After each recording, Plaud generates a structured summary using templates tailored to specific use cases — meeting minutes, action items, sales call reviews, interview notes, and more. Custom templates can be built for any workflow, and the AI adapts outputs based on the context of the conversation.
30-Hour Battery and 64GB Storage The 400mAh battery delivers up to 30 hours of continuous recording on a single charge, with 60 days of standby. The 64GB internal memory holds up to 480 hours of recordings, and unlimited cloud storage is available through the Plaud app.
MagSafe Magnetic Attachment The included magnetic case is compatible with iPhone 12 and later via MagSafe, keeping the device permanently accessible on the back of the phone without adding noticeable bulk. A magnetic ring accessory is also available for compatible Android devices.
Ask Plaud — Search Across All Your Recordings Over time, the Plaud library becomes a searchable archive of conversations. The Ask Plaud feature lets you query your entire recording history using natural language, and the AI surfaces relevant answers with timestamps pointing to the exact moment in the audio. This turns a collection of audio files into a functional knowledge base.
Ultra-Slim, Carry-Anywhere Design The aluminum alloy body measures 3mm thin and weighs 30 grams — slim enough to slide into a wallet and light enough to forget you're carrying it. It is designed for daily carry without requiring a dedicated bag or case.
Enterprise-Grade Security Recordings are encrypted with AES-256 at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit. The platform complies with ISO 27001, ISO 27701, GDPR, SOC 2, and HIPAA. No recordings are used for AI model training, and no data is shared with third parties without explicit authorisation.
