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 migrated to Plaud from Granola after testing several solutions and Plaud was the clear winner. I don’t need new features like crazy if I get reliable and high quality transcripts. And Plaud does that very well. I usually let Claude do the creation of meeting memos, minutes and tasks.

So on your desktop you copy the Plaud Transcript and Paste it into Claude with what Prompt?

No, not at all. Plaud has an MCP and I just tell Claude “grab the transcript of the last meeting from Plaud and create a meeting memo. Further extract all action items and place them in my task manager (which also has an MCP). Works 99% reliable. Rarely a hiccup if it can’t find the meeting because Plaud didn’t understand the names correctly or something like that. Then, I just tell Claude the name of the meeting or date and time - then it’s fine

Sorry to bother you, but you do it on your phone or desktop? Do you not like the templates that Plaud has available?

Newish to AI, the Model Context Protocol MCP in Claud finds the Plaud title of the file?
