You can write your own notes while a conversation is happening and Parley Notes uses them to shape the note it writes.
The notes pad
The Record screen has a notes pad. Anything you type is saved as you go, survives the app being closed and is woven into the summary when you stop. What you wrote leads the write-up, nothing you wrote is dropped and nothing is added that the transcript doesn't support.
Don't worry about typos and abbreviations. Parley Notes understands and fixes them.
Why add your own notes?
- Highlight the moments and decisions that mattered to you.
- Give context the room didn't say out loud: who someone is, what the project is called.
- Steer the write-up: "focus on the budget", "write it for my manager".
More context for the note
Before or during a recording you can also:
- Give it a title and a folder because a typed title beats the generated one.
- Attach a document such as a PDF, a text file or an image of up to 10 MB each. Parley Notes reads it once for names, spellings and the agenda so product names come out right. It's background only: nothing in a document is ever written up as something said in the meeting.
- Choose how to write it up by picking a summary style for this recording or leaving it on Auto-detect. See Summary styles.
Or leave it blank
A few notes help, but Parley Notes works fine without any from the transcript and the basic facts it has about the meeting.
A note without a recording
The Record tab also takes a file, a link or a transcript. A Teams or Meet transcript (.vtt), an audio file, a YouTube link, a podcast episode, an article or a document each become a note. Importing a transcript costs no minutes because the text already exists.
