The Comu Action Pro revolutionizes meeting recording with its sleek 7mm design that hardly feels like a traditional recorder. It is a powerful tool to capture and convert dialogues. Its versatility allows it to rest on a table, slip into a pocket, or attach magnetically to your phone. This clever feature means you can transition between meetings without misplacing it. Comu provides a magnetic ring attachment for phones lacking a compatible system, and the device is available in black, silver, and cherry red. The compact OLED display and minimalist design keep controls discreet yet accessible.

For a seamless user experience, consider the ShiftCam’s Ingenious Stick-On Mount that keeps your phone case while providing added functionality.

How to Use the Action Pro to Record and Transform Conversations

Why separate the recorder from your phone? During lengthy meetings, a smartphone’s battery can run dry if used for recording. The Action Pro relieves your phone, allowing it to remain active for tasks like calls and messages. This subtle difference proves significant in daily professional use when you need to capture and transform conversations efficiently.

Equipped with six far-field microphones, the device captures voices up to 7 meters away, featuring noise reduction and speaker recognition to enhance clarity. Its battery lasts up to 70 hours on a single charge via USB-C. Comu highlights the “30 Minutes After” concept, where conversations are transcribed and summarized, supporting 113 languages. Additional features include speaker identification, translation, and the conversion of dialogues into emails or presentations. This enables users to effectively transcribe interactions without hassle.

The recorder’s AI capabilities are accessible through a dedicated button, separating its functions from the phone. After a meeting, users can turn conversations into action items or summary emails effortlessly. This balance of simple hardware and sophisticated software defines the AI notetaker. Once you start recording, you can focus entirely on the meeting, knowing the recorder will transform audio into organized text and insights later.
