Ahead of this year’s tech showcase in Las Vegas, Plaud has introduced new tools aimed at making meeting notes easier to capture across physical and digital settings.
Plaud has launched the Plaud NotePin S, a new wearable AI notetaker, along with a desktop application designed for recording and summarising online meetings. The launch comes ahead of the Consumer Electronics Show.
Plaud first introduced its pin styled notetaker in 2024. The new Plaud NotePin S builds on that concept with the addition of a physical button that allows users to start and stop recordings. During a recording, the button can also be tapped to mark key moments, similar to the functionality offered on the Plaud Note Pro.
Priced at 179 dollars, the Plaud NotePin S ships with multiple wearing options. Users receive a clip, a lanyard, a magnetic pin and a wristband in the box, allowing the device to be worn in different ways. Plaud has also added Apple Find My support, making it easier to locate the device if it is misplaced.
The core hardware remains unchanged from the earlier version. The device offers 64 GB of internal storage and supports up to 20 hours of continuous recording. It uses 2 MEMS microphones capable of capturing clear audio within a range of 9.8 feet. Users receive 300 minutes of transcription every month at no cost.
Compared to the Plaud Note Pro, the NotePin S has a shorter recording range and lower battery life. However, it is smaller and more convenient to carry using the included accessories. Plaud said the device is designed for people who are frequently on the move.
This marks Plaud’s fourth hardware product. The company said it has sold more than 1.5 million devices so far, with a strong focus on in person meetings. With the new desktop app, Plaud is also targeting digital meeting tools such as Granola, Fathom and Fireflies.
The desktop client works across meeting platforms and can detect when a meeting is active. It then prompts users to capture the conversation. On Mac, the app records meetings using system audio and converts them into structured notes with the help of AI. Plaud has also added support for multimodal inputs, allowing users to combine audio transcripts with images and typed notes, a feature previously available only on its mobile app.
