NotePin Wearable AI Voice Recorder, Cosmic Gray, Non-S Version

I've been using the Plaud NotePin for meetings, interviews, and everyday voice notes, and it's quickly become one of my favorite productivity tools. It's incredibly lightweight and easy to wear or carry, so I hardly notice it's there throughout the day. The AI transcription is surprisingly accurate, even when there are multiple people speaking, and the summaries save me a lot of time by pulling out the key points instead of making me listen to the entire recording again. Setting it up was simple, and syncing recordings to the app has been smooth and reliable. The audio quality is clear, the battery lasts long enough for a full day of use, and I really like having my notes organized automatically instead of sorting through dozens of recordings. Whether you're a student, business professional, content creator, or someone who attends frequent meetings, this device makes capturing important conversations much easier. Overall, it's a smart investment if you want an AI-powered recorder that combines excellent audio quality with fast transcription and useful summaries. It has made my workflow more efficient, and I would definitely recommend it.

What can I say? This device has been a game changer in my business. As a construction Superintendent I write a lot of documents and reports. I do inspections, write employee reports and document the process of construction in a very detailed way. I was on the fence about this at first because of the higher price tag and the $124 a year subscription fee that I'm paying but after using it for two months now I am very pleased and very happy with this purchase. I wear it on my wrist like a watch and when I start walking a job site I will push record and it will listen to everything that I say while I'm on the job site it will pick up the smallest details and even this whispers that are said. It will then take that recording and process it and send it through an AI generator and make a complete detailed professional report based on any template that I decide to use. I even made a custom template based on a form that I've been using for years in my business. My customers, vendors and coworkers are quite impressed with the quality of the written documents that I'm sending them these days. I was recently required to send a written document to the government concerning a job site problem. I was not really sure how to write this document in a way that would make the issue easily understood. I simpley dictated all of the details of the problem into my notepin and the Plaud program did the rest. It wrote a very detailed and professional repairt that required very little editing on my part. I am simply amazed by this product and it keeps getting better the more I use it. Every document I have made has required very little editing. It understands most of what I say. It will also understand others in the conversation and identify them by name if you say their name during the conversation. This is the best tool I have ever used in my business..

This is a must-have device for anyone who needs to jot down points or take notes during meetings, interviews, and consultations. The ease with which it generates executive summaries and meeting minutes saves time and streamlines necessary follow-up actions. I love this product.

Oh.. my.. goodness! If you want to save a massive amount of time and energy, buy this tool! It records meetings and then outlines the speaker (s) notes into strengths, weaknesses, suggestions, a mind map, etc. Stop taking tedious, indecipherable notes, stop typing for hours to analyze meeting data.. this tool does it all!!

Wow, what a brilliant piece of engineering this is. I mean, clearly this product was designed by someone with a PhD in Quantum Complexity and a minor in “How to Confuse the Masses.” Because obviously, everyone using it must have a lab coat and 180 IQ, right? I’m loving how intuitive the recorder/pin is, especially the part where I can’t tell whether it’s a short buzz or a long buzz or just my imagination. Am I starting a recording? Ending it? Summoning a spirit? Who knows! And of course, it’s completely reasonable to ask people to hold their thoughts mid-conversation so I can figure out if this thing is even on. That’s not awkward at all. And let’s not forget the genius feature where if you accidentally leave it on (which, again, totally not your fault given how unclear the feedback is), it records for five hours straight. Four times. That’s 20 hours of audio just sitting there, hogging space, and blocking me from listening to the one recording I actually need. Because, yes, apparently this system requires every single file to download before you can access any of them. Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Honestly, unless frustration was the main product feature, I’m not sure what the goal here was. So here’s a humble request from a regular human with modest brainpower: please take this thing back and give me a refund. Oh, and kindly spare me a PhD-level response with some convoluted workaround. I’m not trying to earn a degree here. I just want a product that works. Thanks!

Generally speaking a very good product works very well, picks up conversations clear across the room. It's excellent. However it's difficult to know when it's turned on and off. You can press it and check later and your conversation was never recorded because it wasn't activated. Somehow you have to press it in a very specific fashion otherwise it won't turn on and the light is very tiny and on the front of it. When you look down at your pin you don't see the light. You have to turn the pin upward towards you in order to see if it's on or off and even then it's difficult

It's excellent, but I recently learned that TurboScribe is much better at transcribing the recordings and it's less expensive that using Plaud's transcription service.

Editing my review, but maintaining the star rating. Original review at the bottom. Plaud reached out to me directly regarding my review. Kudos for great customer service. I was given a refund based on my review. My primary issue was that I was using this device outside in a semi industrial setting interview O&M staff. The small pinhole light makes it hard to detect whether it was recording or not. So sometimes I thought it was recording when it wasn't, and when I went to turn it off I actually turned it on. So I missed some of my interviews. I still take hand notes as my confidence in the device was not high enough to fully trust not taking notes. Thus I feel this device deserves the 3 stars, because if you can't trust it then it has limited functionality. Maybe an office setting it will be easier to tell if it is on. That being said, when it did record I will overall say I was impressed. Not perfect, but I think through the AI software it will continue to improve. Some of the people I interview have non-native midwestern accents, and some of the words are very industry specific. My recent trip was to Guam so there were some native words (CHammaro) that it picked up (and some it didn't). Still somewhat hit and miss, but it has done surprisingly well. Some of the environments can be noisy, though I do try to get in a quieter environment. Since the processing is done off the device I expect that AI will improve on growing data models. I was overall impressed with the functionality that I'm going to buy the Note Pro, as they indicated that it has displays that should be more clear about whether it is recording. I will review that separately. Original review: I was excited for this at first and it was useful. But I've also discovered that it is difficult to know when it is recording and when it isn't. I used it for some interviews for work and going back to the recordings I discovered that it didn't properly turn on when I tried, and it turned on when I thought I was done. So I missed the entire interview, multiple times. Thankfully I took hand notes because I have not yet reached the point of being able to trust it. If I could return it I would. Hopefully I can figure it out better because I have it.

Produto top! Comprei um para a minha esposa com o vendedor Imagem Hitech. Produto veio direitinho e ainda com o selo de homologação da Anatel e todos os acessórios (pulseira + cordão + clip). Entrei no mesmo link da amanzon e comprei outro para mim. Contudo, não me atentei e a compra foi com outro vendedor e o produto não veio com todos os itens que vieram na primeira compra (não tinha selo homologado da Anatel, nem pulseira e colar). Devolvi o produto (nem abri do plástico, pois a cor da caixa era diferente e menor - fotos da caixa branca). Procurei a página do primeiro vendedor (Imagem Hitech), vi que tinha + desse produto a venda.. fiz o pedido e chegou tudo certo, conforme as fotos.. 👍🏻 Recomendo!

Justo lo que esperaba, magnífica calidad

Love this. So small and easy to use

I am absolutely in love with this device! I've been using the Plaud NotePin for a few weeks now, and it has already become an indispensable part of my daily routine here in Halifax. The hardware is sleek and discreet, but the real magic is the AI transcription and summarizing. It has genuinely made my life more organized and productive. I can't recommend it enough. For anyone wondering how it can fit into your life, here are five examples of where this has been a lifesaver for me: * Work Meetings: I can now be fully present and engaged in discussions instead of having my head down trying to type every single detail. I just let the NotePin record, and the AI summary it generates afterwards is incredibly accurate, capturing action items and key decisions perfectly. * University Lectures: I wish I had this when I was a student! For anyone at Dalhousie or SMU, this is a must-have. You can record a whole lecture and get a full transcript to study from later, ensuring you never miss a crucial detail for your exams. * Capturing Spontaneous Ideas: This is where it shines. I was just walking along the waterfront this morning when a brilliant idea for a project popped into my head. Instead of fumbling to type it into my phone, I just tapped the pin and spoke my thoughts. No more great ideas lost to the wind. * Important Phone Calls: I used it to record a call with customer service to sort out a complicated billing issue. Having a perfect transcript of the conversation, including confirmation numbers and names, is incredibly powerful and saves a massive headache. * Personal Voice Journal: At the end of the day, I take a couple of minutes to just talk about what happened, what I'm thinking, or what I need to do tomorrow. The AI organizes my rambling thoughts into a neat, summarized journal entry. It’s an amazing tool for mental clarity and planning. This device is the real deal. It's an easy five stars from me!

Excellent, really helpful. Everyone I show wants to have one and some bought too. Alao helpful to keep beside the bed at night. Just be careful, the first day I got it I initially thought the button wasn't working, I contacted support and they responded quickly, then I realised the button isn't touch button, it is haptic so you need to press firmly. Then it works every single time. Once I was in the lab recording, I asked AI to report the values so ChatGPT can plot it. It did that very accurately as with all meeting notes and summaries. From meeting notes to random quick daily notes to lab sessions which normally would have taken an hour not 5 minutes just because I would need to stop to write values... Sound quality is good. I used to doubt "did it record, what if it didn't." I realise that by two months, it is gone. Been using it for two months now. Battery lasts crazy long, camel in a desert! I think I charged it maybe 2-3 times and most power drain was due to me accidentally pressing the button in armband mode then letting it record whatever I snored all night:) Lanyard is my favourite way to wear so far. Armband is better in the gym. And I couldn't trust on the magnetic ones because I am fast paced and clumsy, so I felt like I might drop it. So, I am not using those.
