The audio quality is about half as good as when I record the meeting on my mobile phone. But with such a small device, it's kind of expected - it's usable, just don't expect any studio miracles. The transcription itself is similar to the MS Teams recording - nothing groundbreaking, but usable and with the ability to replay the section. What's quite a surprise, on the other hand, is how the AI handles it. The output makes sense and in the end it corresponds quite faithfully to what was actually discussed at the meeting. Speaker recognition (Beta) is still a bit lacking. In the text input before transcription, it looks like one paragraph can contain multiple speakers and it is a bit more difficult to assign the right voice to the right person, but with more audio samples even this can be untangled and then it can detect it correctly. There is also a custom glossary to help with transcription accuracy. It will improve a little, but it can't be relied on completely yet. And if anyone wonders if Plaud in a MagSafe case covers the lenses on Samsung phones, then min. not directly on the S23+. A couple of millimetres only goes over the bottom edge of the metal edge and the glass. It doesn't restrict photography in any way.
You only spend the free minutes on the first AI transcription of the recording. Applying other AI templates is already free.
You don't spend your free minutes on clipping or AI prompts like translate note into another language.
Detection of Czech is absolutely without problems, that it triggers Polish for someone is such a complete nonsense.
Functional recording of phone calls.
Fast file transfer via your own WIFI hotspot, goodbye BT.
And yes, other tools can handle transcription, but Plaud has it all in one and with declared enterprise security (GDPR, SOC2, ISO 27001,. ), which you can't get with AI services with basic subscriptions and with Gemini in particular.
In addition to the mobile app, a web version is also available. Ideal if you can't install anything on company hw. For the recording itself, however, the web application is not enough.
Battery life.
Somewhat unclear and exorbitant price in android app. On the other hand, in the web app PRO plan with 20h AI, costs for me an acceptable 268Kč/month for an annual subscription.
Exporting audio from android MP3 and WAW, from web app only MP3, but originally I had only OGG.

Absolutely great in English and surprisingly good in Czech as well.
5 hours/month for free is not enough (especially if you forget to turn off the recording, which will happen often) and the price for unlimited is high. There should be some intermediate version e.g. for 10 or 20 hours/month.

HW is beautifully crafted
Ease of use
Expensive tariffs
It constantly detects Polish instead of Czech and the transcripts are in Polish, so unusable

(iphone/ipad/macbook/apple watch)any of these have incomparably better recording quality than plaud
instead of their brutally overpriced app, just insert the recording into google gemina which processes the recording many times better, including clear editing and resolution of individuals.
The price of both the device itself and especially their low quality app

It is a really nice piece of HW, which is complemented by a simple but clear and very usable mobile app and web interface. The subscription is up to today's standards and I have no doubt about its return.
I believe that the developers will listen to the users' requests and add integrations to google and other cloud calendars, so that for example the names of the recordings match the scheduled appointments.
Hilarious design
Battery life
Easy to use
The results of transcripts and AI analyses are almost perfect, even in Czech
Super mobile app
Proprietary charging cable, but understandable given the design.
Currently, integration into Google Calendar is missing.

I bought this recorder because I saw the excellent results of the work of its predecessor. After receiving it, I did the installation, update and especially the language settings in the settings menu. I've set up CJ. The transcription of the file into a text transcript is done in Polish. The name of the audio file is also translated into Polish. When I try to regenerate the file it always turns out the same. When I change the language to AUTO everything is in Polish again. If I try to re-generate the transcript by selecting the manual settings, it is possible to select the Czech language, but the generate button remains inactive, so nothing happens. Finally, I just want to point out that I activated the Unlimited annual plan right when I installed it. For such an expensive product, I would expect it to be functional. In this state it is not fit for purpose. Martin Šteffan CEO, GEOKEY s. r. o
I was looking forward to seeing what he could do in front of the stick
The conversation is transcribed into a language other than the one set in the settings menu

I was wondering if I would actually start using the device and if it wouldn't just be an expensive magnet for my phone. I was wrong! From day one, it's been my third hand. The battery lasts several days with fairly intensive use, the transfer is very fast, and thanks to the magnet, I don't forget the device (because you can't do ANYTHING without your phone anymore). At the same time, it's not distracting during meetings, and unlike recording via apps, it's quick, convenient, and reliable. I don't have to remember the exact steps from a phone call; it's simply become a great tool for my external brain.
The only, not insignificant, minus is the high cost of the subscription beyond the free limit. However, with intensive use, especially in a business setting, it's an amount that immediately pays for itself through increased efficiency.
Recording clarity in terms of quality
brilliant AI templates from the transcription
great battery life
pleasant control
You get used to it quickly thanks to how fast it turns on.
magnetic phone case
great design
High price for the subscription, however when used fully within company management - it's priceless.

It’s a clever little feature. I recommend it.
I’ve had a bit of a struggle with the instructions – they’re in English, German and then in a jumble. But with the help of AI, I managed it.

I was pleasantly surprised by the Plaud Note Pro Silver. I was looking for something small, unobtrusive and practical for meetings and notes - and it did just that. The recorder is very compact, well made and thanks to its thin design you hardly know about it. The biggest advantage is the AI processing of the recording. The transcription works very well and the automatic meeting summary saves a lot of time. For a person with a bad memory like me, it's a great help. In addition, the non-subscription version is usually sufficient for normal use, you just need to keep an eye on the limits. However, I find the PRO plan unnecessarily expensive considering what it offers in addition. Overall, the positives are clearly predominant. A modern, smart and really practical device.
Small, light and unobtrusive design
High quality AI transcript and meeting summary
Save time when taking notes
Easy to use
For normal use, the non-subscription version is usually sufficient
Premium processing equipment
Need to watch limits in the non-subscription version
I think the PRO tariff is unnecessarily expensive
Transcription can sometimes be a problem in noisier environments or with multiple speakers
