PLAUD AI Meeting Recorder
$159.00
The PLAUD AI Meeting Recorder costs $159.00. It is a card-thin recorder that clips magnetically to the back of a phone, starts on one press, and turns what it hears into a transcript, a summary and a list of action items you can query afterwards. It handles meetings, phone calls, interviews and lectures in several languages. Check the plan before you buy: transcription comes with a free monthly allowance, and steady use needs a paid tier.

Before you buy
Where to buy the PLAUD AI recorder
PLAUD sells its recorders at plaud.ai, and MetaOriental links there rather than selling them. The PLAUD Note costs $159.00, and PLAUD also sells a Note Pro at around $189. Transcription runs on a free monthly allowance with paid plans above it, so the subscription is part of the real cost rather than an optional extra.
Who the PLAUD AI recorder is for
PLAUD is built for people who sit in meetings, calls, interviews or lectures and need the content afterwards rather than notes taken during. The recorder is a thin magnetic card that sticks to a phone, records with one tap, then produces a transcript, a summary and a list of action items across multiple languages. PLAUD also lets you query your own recordings through its Ask Plaud feature.
Is the PLAUD recorder worth $159?
Your phone already records audio for free, so PLAUD is really selling the transcription and summary pipeline plus a device you can start without unlocking anything. Anyone recording heavily will exceed the free monthly allowance and end up on a paid plan, which changes the yearly cost more than the hardware price does. Check the recording laws where you work — in many places you must tell the other party they are being recorded.
