Dictation app Wispr Flow is preparing to launch an AI-powered meeting notetaker, updating its Terms of Service and privacy policy to detail the processing of meeting data. The new tool will generate transcripts, summaries, and action items, entering a competitive market with existing notetakers.
AI hardware company Plaud reports selling over 2 million notetaking devices and achieving an annualized revenue run rate of over $100 million. The company targets professionals by offering screenless gadgets that record and summarize meetings, differentiating itself from software-only AI solutions.
Kin Health has raised $9 million in seed funding to develop an AI notetaker for patients, aiming to transcribe doctor visits, parse medical advice, and surface next steps. The app, built by physicians and entrepreneurs, plans to offer a free service monetized through referrals, while addressing privacy concerns and AI accuracy challenges in healthcare.
Otter.ai has launched enterprise search capabilities, transforming its AI meeting notetaker into a full workspace platform. The company now acts as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) client, allowing users to connect Gmail, Google Drive, Notion, Jira, and Salesforce accounts and query data across these tools alongside meeting data. Otter's CEO Sam Liang noted that enterprise customers prefer bot-based meeting capture for transparency. The company redesigned its AI assistant for contextual responses and launched a Windows app with botless recording, following industry trends pioneered by Granola.
Google's AI meeting notetaker Gemini now supports Zoom, Microsoft Teams, and in-person meetings, expanding beyond its original Google Meet limitation. Previously limited to alpha users on Android, the feature allows users to start recording from the Google Meet homescreen by selecting 'take notes for me.' Gemini generates summaries and action items in a Google Doc saved to the user's Drive.
