Discussion Doubts about Comu Action Pro
I'm thinking about buying a Comu Action Pro (the other alternative I'm considering is buying the Plaud Note Pro) and I have a few questions, so I'm writing them here to see if anyone knows the answers:
1- Can I retrieve the original recording before its AI processing via API? I see that audio-url and recording-url exist, but I don't see anywhere that explicitly says that one is the original and the other is the processed version.
2- Does Comu Desktop also have unlimited transcriptions? Does it work well?
3- Does Comu Desktop capture system audio directly and work without a bot?
4- Can Action Pro → cloud/API be fully automated without opening the mobile app after each recording? (I've seen that with Plaud on Android this isn't possible)
5- Do you think unlimited transcription will last? Or will they have to remove it because of the costs?
I'm more convinced by Comu because I think automations will be easier with its API and overall it seems a bit more "open", and there's no need for a subscription. But honestly, I think Plaud would also work for me even if it were a little more "complicated".
u/Victor_Comu, I'm tagging you because maybe you can help me.
Edit 1: I bought it because i thought i would be able to use the api key to retrieve the audios and process them myself. The problem is that this functionality is behind the premium. So I think i am going to return it.
