About Flownote

Flownote is an AI-powered meeting notepad designed to automatically transcribe discussions and organize key takeaways. Operating directly on your desktop or mobile device, the application listens to your computer audio or spoken conversations to generate real-time transcriptions without sending an awkward third-party recording bot into the call. This design allows users to participate naturally in discussions without the distractions and technical friction typically caused by virtual bot attendees. During a meeting, Flownote operates seamlessly across multiple communication platforms, including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and Slack Huddles. As audio is captured, users can type their own quick notes or simply listen. Once the session wraps up, Flownote synthesizes the dialogue alongside manual notes into structured summaries, prominent decisions, and concrete next steps. It also features a conversational "Ask AI" system that lets users query past discussions, extract answers, and review historical conversations organized by contact. Flownote serves a wide array of roles that rely heavily on regular calls, including sales teams, consultants, product managers, engineers, recruiters, and executive leaders. Because it tracks meeting context per person and stores full interaction histories, it functions effectively as meeting intelligence software for professionals managing high meeting volumes, ongoing client relationships, or cross-functional team initiatives. What sets Flownote apart from traditional AI note-takers is its bot-free architecture, which directly captures system audio so no external participant joins the video room. Combined with relationship tracking by contact, an interactive AI chat across meeting histories, and native support across Windows, macOS, and iOS, Flownote offers an unobtrusive and comprehensive note-taking workflow.
