What it is

The tool records audio from your computer or phone, then produces meeting summaries, action items, and speaker-identified transcripts. Built as a fine-tuned product focused on privacy — all processing happens locally or on EU servers. Early reviewers include business executives and solo founders who want meeting notes without the disruption of a visible bot participant.
At a glance

“Jamie is very easy to use - I start it on the months I need it and then stop it when I dont. It can be used both online and in person using the phone app and its ability to understand the context of the meetings and produce accurate and well structured summaries is great. These need minimal adjustment. I have used it for interviews, board meetings and general discussions and it has worked well in all contexts There are no obvious downsides to Jamie - its performance has always been good (even in”
“I like the fact that with Jamie, I don't actually have to invite it to meetings since it's standalone. This is especially helpful because I have lots of meetings on the go away from my office. I also found Jamie really easy to set up and use. I come from New Zealand, and we have a native language, Maori, that's embedded in our everyday language. Jamie often gets those Maori words wrong. I automate my meeting recordings, summarize key points, and create extracts, eliminating the need for manual n”
“Voice recognition is very important because I participate in many in-person meetings. With the voice recognition, the ability to easily assign a voice to a person, and the accuracy of the meeting notes, I have found it to be the best tool for in-person meetings. I dislike that I can't record a meeting outside of Jamie and upload it for transcription, but the new mobile app meets the need, without having the extra step of uploading. Jamie is really helping me keep track of tasks that get assigned”
“Jamie lets me produce accurate, detailed meeting minutes and action items almost immediately. The built-in Action Tracker keeps me accountable, and I treat the AI-generated text as a solid first draft that I can quickly edit into a clear, relatable, and comprehensive record of the meeting. The user interface is straightforward and easy to use, and the calendar integration means I never forget to turn Jamie on. Many of the early irritations I had with Jamie have been addressed in successive versi”
“Solid but very pricey: I tried out the app and find it is a solid, well-built product. What I cannot come around to is paying almost 500 euros for an annual pro subscription…feels like this is targeting the business/enterprise market and excludes individuals and indie makers. Several competitors are priced at 100 per year so cannot justify a 500% up charge for a single use product.”
“Works beautifully: I love this app, the only problem is the price honestly!”
“Good app, some bugs, slow support response times: The app does well on a Mac when I have to do everything manually but at that point it’s just a transcription tool with ai summary layer on top of it, which are a Dime a dozen. Monthly subscription is too high for what it is, in my opinion.”
“Solid, but feature lacking unless you use the desktop app: While I do love the Desktop app for meetings throughout a wide variety of services, the mobile app doesn't support call notetaking. The problem is that Microsoft Teams, which in fact has an extension on the desktop app, is seen as a phone call. Meaning the app will just work for in person meetings (or if you so wish, slap the phone next to the speaker). For the price, I think its too much if you only use it for inperson meetings and”
“Ubeatable. Period.: I’ve been using Jamie since it was a beta. I tried the paid versions of almost anything out there. Nothing gets even close in real world application for someone who spends 4 hours per day as average in meetings, mostly online and with multilingual non-english native peers about deep technical, financial and legal matters. I only keep Plaud as second support for the discretion the recorder provides for in-person meetings. I ended deleting everything else I tried. I just wish t”
“When it works: The problem is it randomly decide that it can’t upload a meeting. So it just spins. Not a big deal except if you count on this blindly for note taking you don’t know when it will randomly decide this is the meeting it won’t upload. I had one today. Critical meeting. Stuck. Uploading for hours.”

“I love that Jamie automatically transcribes all my meetings and recognizes when I'm in a meeting. It works smoothly and with just a few clicks, so I don't have to think much about Jamie, and all my meetings are captured. I especially love the support. Whenever I had questions or issues, the team responded extremely quickly, sometimes solving my problems in a new version within a few days. The initial setup process was also super easy, just a few clicks to grant permissions, and I was ready to go”

“Such an easy and straightforward way to stay on top of my meetings. I cannot imagine doing any meetings without Jamie anymore. The 30min meeting limit, but I understand that's the business model ;) It's impossible to take notes while in a meeting, especially as a solo founder. Jamie is like my invisible assistant, taking notes and summarizing so I can always come back to it or copy it into Claude for further use”
“Best note-taking app… hands down: I’ve been using Jamie for over a year and it’s honestly the best note-taking app I’ve ever used. I tested a bunch and nothing else comes close. I love that I can record in-person meetings, and even put a call on speaker and capture it right from my phone using the app. The summaries are super useful, it pulls out to-dos automatically, and it’s just really easy to use. What I like most is that it’s not intrusive… a lot of other apps add a “caller” or announce th”

Jamie operates by running directly on your device rather than sending a virtual participant to your meetings. You can capture conversations across platforms like Zoom, Teams, and Google Meet, as well as in-person meetings through your laptop or mobile device, without disrupting the natural flow of conversations.
Jamie offers a free plan that includes 10 AI notes per month with a 30-minute meeting duration limit. Paid plans start at $24/month for the Plus plan (20 notes, 2-hour limit) and $46/month for the Pro plan (unlimited notes, 5-hour limit).
