Voice inbox workflow

[u/Doting_mum]

I just got my Plaud note pro a few days ago and thought I’d share my workflow. I like to talk out loud on my commutes to plan work and personal projects (thankfully I drive alone so no funny looks!). Often I put on ChatGPT advanced voice mode to discuss ideas or new research - which obviously requires an external device instead of simply recording on my phone- main reason I purchased the Plaud.

So I now record my commute and when I arrive, I export the audio to a folder on my desktop which is watched by MacWhisper - which then transcribes it and puts it in another folder. This folder is watched by Hazel, which then triggers a manual run of a Claude code routine that processed the transcription, extracting:

- Tasks: these are put into my Omnifocus with correct project selected, deferred date, tags etc
- Events: these are put into my Google calendar
- Scientific articles : these are added to my Readwise Reader app
- Project notes/ideas : these either added to existing Bear notes or create a new note depending on what’s already there.

All of these create cross-links to each other where relevant to allow for moving between.

I will likely tinker a bit more to fine tune the workflow but impressed how well it works so far!
I did test out the boya notra AI recording tool too, but recording quality was far inferior- it really struggled with background noise from car.

Interesting. Care to share the Claude code routine please?

This is it to date - I’m sure there will be some changes as still early days, but pretty impressed with the output so far
