    Most AI note-taking lists are really lists of meeting bots, which join your video call and transcribe it. That's useful, but it's half the picture. Decisions happen in hallway conversations, client dinners, on-site visits, and hybrid rooms where nobody is on a video link. This guide covers different parts of the note-taking workflow: hardware capture for in-person settings, platform-native tools for online calls, and AI layers for organizing and synthesizing what you've captured. It compares six tools by capture context, workflow fit, pricing, and limitations.
