In their own words
HyNote
HyNote turns meetings and other material—including audio, PDFs, videos, images, websites, and text—into searchable notes. It transcribes in more than 50 languages, identifies speakers, and offers live translation. The service can create summaries, key points, action items, and meeting notes, with more than 30 professional templates. Study features include flashcards, quizzes, and study plans; publishing tools can produce blog posts, podcasts, slides, and infographics. HyNote exports to Google Docs and Notion, syncs with Google and Apple Calendar, and offers Google Calendar reminders and a way to join Google Meet and start recording from its Calendar page. It is available on web, macOS, iOS, Android, and as a Chrome extension. The free plan includes recording, transcription, uploads, and calendar integration, with sessions capped at 120 minutes. Pro costs $6.66 a month, billed annually, and a 7-day trial is listed. Mobile use requires an active internet connection; the Mac app requires macOS 14 or later.
