PLAUD Manuals & User Guides

PLAUD is an emerging technology brand dedicated to modernizing note-taking through artificial intelligence. Their flagship product, the PLAUD NOTE, is a credit-card-sized AI voice recorder designed to integrate seamlessly into daily workflows. By combining slim hardware with advanced software powered by large language models like GPT-4, PLAUD devices capture high-quality audio from meetings, lectures, and phone calls, subsequently converting them into accurate transcripts, summaries, and mind maps via the PLAUD App.

The company focuses on enhancing productivity for professionals and students by automating the documentation process. PLAUD devices typically feature dual-mode recording capabilities—switching easily between ambient recording for in-person interactions and vibration-conduction sensors for capturing phone calls directly from a smartphone. With a commitment to data privacy and user convenience, PLAUD connects hardware reliability with cloud-based AI processing to ensure no critical detail is missed.

• How do I switch between Note and Phone Call recording modes on the PLAUD NOTE?

  Use the Recording Mode Switch on the device. Toggle it down for Note Recording Mode (meetings, voice memos) and up for Phone Call Recording Mode.

• Can I use the PLAUD NOTE to record phone calls while using headphones?

  No. Ideally, the PLAUD NOTE should be attached to the phone and you should use the phone's handset or speaker. The device captures sound via a Vibration Conduction Sensor (V.C.S.) directly from the phone hardware.

• Does the PLAUD NOTE work without the PLAUD app?

  The device can record audio independently without the app. However, to access transcripts, summaries, and file management, you must sync the device with the PLAUD App.

• How do I charge my PLAUD device?

  Use the provided magnetic charging cable included in the box. Connect it to the magnetic charging port on the device and a DC-5V power source.

• How do I highlight a key moment during a recording?

  Short-press the Record Button once during a recording. This marks the timestamp so you can easily reference that specific moment later in the app.
