More control. Same AI intelligence. The Plaud NotePin S is the upgraded version of Plaud's wearable AI note taker — sharing the same 20-hour recording, 64GB storage, 112-language transcription, and Plaud Intelligence AI summary engine as the original NotePin, with three meaningful upgrades for professionals who want more precise control over their recordings: a tactile physical record button, Press to Highlight, and all four wearable accessories included in the box.

The tactile record button is the most significant functional difference between the NotePin S and the original NotePin. The original uses pressure-sensitive, button-free touch control — minimal and clean, but without tactile confirmation that recording has started. The NotePin S replaces this with a physical button that gives reliable, unambiguous control: long press to start recording instantly, no need to look at the device or wait for haptic feedback to confirm. For professionals in motion — walking between meetings, entering a room, sitting down in a client session — the physical button is the form of confirmation that eliminates doubt about whether the recording is actually running.

Press to Highlight is the second upgrade that changes how recordings are used after the fact. During a meeting, when a key decision is made, a commitment is given, or an important piece of information is stated, a short press on the NotePin S marks that moment in the audio timeline. When Plaud Intelligence generates the summary, those highlighted moments receive priority weighting — the AI knows that the flagged sections are what the user identified as critical, and the summary reflects that human-AI alignment. For users who review long recordings and need the summary to capture specific moments rather than an averaged interpretation of the full conversation, Press to Highlight is the feature that makes the difference between a useful summary and a comprehensive one.

The four included accessories — magnetic pin, clip, lanyard, and wristband — cover every wearing context without an additional purchase. The magnetic pin attaches to a shirt or jacket for meeting-room and office use. The clip attaches to a collar, pocket, or bag strap. The lanyard provides around-the-neck hands-free wear for conference and event use. The wristband provides the most casual carry option. The original NotePin includes only the magnetic pin and clip; the NotePin S includes all four from the box.

The hardware specifications are otherwise identical to the NotePin: 0.61oz body, 20 hours of continuous recording, 40 days of standby, 64GB local storage, dual MEMS microphones, Bluetooth sync to the Plaud app on iOS and Android, and the full Plaud Intelligence suite — AI transcription in 112 languages with speaker diarization, 10,000+ summary templates, mind maps, and workflow integrations. The free starter plan includes 300 transcription minutes per month. ISO 27001, ISO 27701, GDPR, SOC II, HIPAA, and EN 18031 certified data security.
