Why people switch from Plaud

No device to buy, charge or forget

A Plaud recorder costs $159 to $189 before the AI plan, and it only works when it's on your phone and charged. VoxNote runs on the iPhone you already carry.

Calls on AirPods

Plaud's own support says headphones aren't supported while it captures a call. Its answer is a new pair of earbuds at $249.99. VoxNote works with the AirPods you already own, because the call is captured on the network, not by a sensor on your phone.

Nothing to start

With Plaud, every call begins with you pressing the device. With VoxNote, incoming calls are captured on their own, and outgoing calls start from the VoxNote app. You never press record.

In-person notes without a second gadget

In December 2026, VoxNote adds a dictaphone note taker to the iPhone app. Meetings and site visits get the same summary, transcript and follow-up email as your calls, with nothing to clip on.
