It develops portable hardware and software solutions that record and process conversations, meetings, and ideas.

Establishment

Plaud AI was founded based on the observation that a significant portion of daily conversations, meetings, and idea exchanges carried out by individuals are forgotten over time. The solutions developed to transform this situation are based on systems that transcribe and make sense of audio data through artificial intelligence.
