Pro Tips for Success

🏷️ Organize with Tags

Create a consistent tagging system early. Tags with custom AI prompts can automatically generate specialized summaries for different content types.

🎤 Recording Best Practices

Use combined microphone and system audio for meetings. Take live notes to mark important moments without interrupting the recording.

👥 Identify Speakers

After transcription, identify speakers to build your speaker library. Future recordings will suggest known speakers automatically.

💬 Chat Efficiently

For long recordings, ask specific questions like "What were the action items?" instead of reading the entire transcript.

🔎 Search Smartly

Inquire Mode understands context, not just keywords. Ask natural questions to find information across all your recordings.

📊 Custom Summaries

Set personal summary prompts in settings to get summaries tailored to your specific needs and workflow.
