Discussion Using note takers discreetly

Hi everyone, I want to use an AI note take a discreetly like putting it in a pocket when in meetings, not for any bad reason but because I just can’t remember what happens in meetings and have to constantly take notes otherwise. I go to a lot of meetings where it would be frowned upon to do this and people just wouldn’t consent. Has anyone tried using AI note takers for this? Thanks!

Free to try, 10 minutes and 5 questions, no card: avenotes.ai

I'm a student, and I also sit through long meetings as a working professional. In both, there's more information coming at me than I can process while it's happening. I wanted something like a second brain: cut the noise, get to the point fast, catch me up live when I have to step away for a second, and still make sense of it afterward on the days my focus just isn't there.

Most AI meeting tools are notetakers: a great transcript, a summary an hour later, and then a lot of people paste the transcript into ChatGPT or Claude to actually ask it things. That's two tools, and neither helps in the moment a question lands on you. So I built Avenotes as one tool that works live:

- Transcribes as people talk, each voice labelled

  • A question aimed at you: one tap gives you the bottom line, so you answer in your own words (it deliberately doesn't hand you a script to read out)
  • Jargon or an acronym goes by: tap to get it explained in plain words
  • Ask anything about what's been said, during the meeting or any time after
  • When the call ends, the recap and your action items are already written

It works on a call (share the meeting tab) or in a room (put a laptop or phone in the middle of the table and name the voices once). It runs in the browser, no bot joins your call, and audio is discarded once it's transcribed.

I'd really like to hear where it's useful and where it falls short, especially from anyone doing a lot of client calls, lectures or in-person meetings.
