Plaud.ai has officially announced its newest flagship device—the Plaud Note Pro. Designed for professionals, creatives, educators, and healthcare specialists alike, the Note Pro sets a new benchmark in smart note-taking hardware with its blend of cutting-edge intelligence and sleek, lightweight design.

Wrapped in luxurious rippled aluminium, the Note Pro combines durability with portability, offering a device that feels as premium as it performs. Its ultra-thin profile makes it ideal for everyday use, whether in high-stakes meetings, research labs, or collaborative work sessions.

Smarter, Faster, More Capable

At the heart of the Note Pro is Plaud’s App 3.0, a major software update that brings smarter, more powerful onboard processing. Users can capture, analyse, and transform conversations, audio, and visual input into actionable knowledge with greater speed and accuracy than ever before.

The upgraded Plaud Intelligence Core elevates productivity to the next level, extracting key insights from multiple information streams in real-time. From summarising complex discussions to highlighting important themes, it’s designed to support professionals who need clarity without compromise.

One standout feature—Plaud Intelligibility—lets users generate summaries from different perspectives, assign tasks to team members, and create to-do lists automatically. In short, the Note Pro doesn’t just record—it helps you take action.

A Reimagined Experience

“The Note Pro represents a major leap forward in AI note-taking technology, blending cutting-edge intelligence with an entirely reimagined user experience,” said Nathan Xu, Co-founder & CEO of Plaud.ai.

That new experience comes to life through the InstantView interface, which prioritises speed, clarity, and control. From starting a recording to exporting summaries, every interaction has been streamlined to minimise friction and keep users focused.
