Every meeting recorded.
Every word remembered.

The catch other notetakers don't mention
Most tools need a premium meeting account.
Note Genie doesn't.
Meeting recorders that rely on Zoom cloud recording stop working the moment you're on a free account or you're not the host. Note Genie gives you both paths — so every meeting gets captured, every time.
Path 1 — Free for everyone
Desktop app records any meeting
The desktop app sits in your menu bar, detects when a Zoom, Teams, or Meet call starts, and captures system audio + your mic locally. Free Zoom account? Not the host? Doesn't matter — if you can hear it, Note Genie can record it.
Path 2 — Fully automatic
Native Zoom, Teams & Meet integrations
Have Zoom cloud recording, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet through work? Connect once and every recording imports itself — real speaker names, platform transcript, AI summary waiting before you're back at your desk. No bot in the call.
Path 3 — Away from the desk
In-person, mobile & uploads
Record client visits, site walkthroughs, and lectures on iPhone or Android. Or upload anything — audio, video, PDFs, docs, photos — and AI processes it into the same library.
Folders → knowledge bases
Stop digging through old meetings.
Just ask.
Keep every meeting with a client or project in one folder. Note Genie turns the whole folder into a knowledge base of everything you've ever discussed — then Ask AI answers from all of it, citing the exact meeting and timestamp.

What budget did we finally agree on for phase 2, and who approved it?
Phase 2 was approved at $48,000 — up from the original $40k to cover the CMS migration. Dana approved it and asked for invoicing in two milestones.
Every meeting, one folder
Ten calls with one client? A semester of lectures? They all live together — recordings, uploads, documents, and photos included.
Folder Intelligence
AI reads the whole folder and builds living insight tabs — action items across meetings, themes, requirements — that update as you add recordings.
Answers with receipts
Ask "what did we decide about pricing?" and get the answer plus the exact recording and minute it came from. Click through and hear it yourself.
Summaries, decisions & action items
Not just a transcript.
Every meeting, structured for your work.
Every recording gets speaker-labeled transcription and a structured summary — TL;DR, key takeaways, decisions, and action items. Then 16 purpose-built templates go further: SOAP notes for clinicians, MEDDPICC for sales, case briefs for attorneys, study guides for students.
Transcript — speakers detected
Dr. Reyes 08:12 Our biggest bottleneck is charting — clinicians lose two hours a day.
You 08:31 If we automated that, what would the impact be per clinic?
Dr. Reyes 08:44 Roughly $30k a month across the network. That's the number the board cares about.
Structured output
01
Install & connect
Grab the desktop app (macOS, Windows, Linux) and connect your calendar. Optionally link Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet for automatic imports.
02
Meet like you always do
Note Genie detects the meeting and records — locally on your machine or natively from the platform. No bot joins. Nothing to remember.
03
Your summary is waiting
Structured summary, action items, and speaker-labeled transcript in ~30 seconds. Filed to the right folder, searchable forever, shareable by link.
Private by design
No bots in your meetings.
No training on your data.
Your conversations are the product you keep — not the product we sell. Recording happens on your device or imports directly from your meeting platform, encrypted end to end.
Read the security overviewOn-device capture
Audio is captured locally by the desktop app or Chrome extension — no third-party bot ever joins your call.
Encrypted everywhere
AES-256 encryption at rest, TLS in transit. Share links expire and can be revoked any time.
Never used for training
Your recordings and transcripts are never used to train AI models. Period.
Privacy Mode
One toggle disables all cloud capture for sensitive conversations — everything stays on your machine.

Questions
Everything people ask first
Do I need a paid Zoom, Teams, or Google account to record?+
No. The free Note Genie desktop app records any meeting locally — system audio plus your microphone — so it works even on a free Zoom account with no host permissions. If you do have Zoom cloud recording, Microsoft Teams, or Google Meet through work, connect it once and recordings import automatically with transcripts.
Does a bot join my meetings?+
No. Note Genie captures audio on your device or imports recordings directly from Zoom, Teams, or Google Meet. There's no awkward "Notetaker has joined the meeting" participant on your calls.
How does the knowledge base work?+
Drop every meeting for a client or project into one folder. Note Genie builds a knowledge base from all of them — then you just ask: "What budget did we agree on?" and get an answer with the exact recording and timestamp it came from. No more digging through old notes.
What do I get on the free plan?+
30 minutes of AI processing every month, 10 AI questions, all 16 summary templates, speaker detection, and share links — no credit card required. Upgrade from $4.99/month when you need more.
Can I record in-person meetings too?+
Yes. The iOS and Android apps record in-person meetings, lectures, and voice memos, and you can upload existing audio, video, PDFs, and documents from any device. Everything lands in the same library.
Is my data private?+
Recordings are encrypted in transit and at rest, and they are never used to train AI models. Privacy Mode disables all cloud capture with one toggle when a conversation needs to stay on your device.
