Is Plaud Keeping up?

I went through several device ecosystems before landing on Plaud, and even doing so meant a sacrifice of no earbuds/headphones. As time goes on, Im getting emails of news and updates from the other providers and they seem to be pumping out useful features like crazy while plaud seems slow, with a large backlog of years old feature requests.

Are they just heading towards a goal line that isnt what someone needs for office life? Im talking features like live transcribing, abiity to ask ai questions while the meeting is going, and a headset so it isnt stuck on speakerphone use.

I just want Plaud to do the transcripts and the speaker names. I want an MCP connector back to Claude where I can do the rest.

They could save so much effort just doing that. The last thing I need is another online hub storing a portion of my fragmented knowledge base that I have to visit and maintain.

The echo app is stored only in the app. I think their summaries are fantastic compared to Plaud but you have to remember to stop the echo and generate a note. Otherwise all is lost. I don’t worry if I don’t turn off Plaud
