Announcement posted by Alison Worldwide 11 May 2026
Plaud Inc., the world's most trusted AI work companion for professionals, has announced the Australian availability of Plaud Note Pro and Plaud NotePin S.
Plaud's philosophy is to advance the frontier of human intelligence through an integrated approach to hardware and software. Plaud believes that conversation itself is a form of intelligence, where ideas begin, decisions are made, and meaning is shared. Plaud is not simply a tool; it is a movement towards empowering intelligence by turning conversations into structured insights and seamless workflows.
Dedicated hardware integrated with intelligent software
Built for modern work across in-person, phone and online settings, Plaud's note-taking ecosystem combines dedicated hardware with intelligent software to capture, extract and utilise conversations into clear, searchable and actionable notes. With the entry of Plaud Note Pro and Plaud NotePin S into the Australian market, Plaud is giving local professionals a smarter way to stay present while ensuring important details are never lost.
Plaud Note Pro is engineered for professional excellence. It delivers studio-quality audio capture all in a credit card design. As the pioneer of dual-mode recording technology, Plaud Note Pro's Smart Dual Mode Recording can now automatically detect between phone calls and meetings without manual switching. With optimised battery life, it also supports up to 50 hours of continuous recording on a single charge.
The "Press to highlight" feature represents the world's first method for humans to align with large language models (LLMs) to capture key ideas and decisions in real-time, enabling Plaud to understand context and prioritise actions.
Because of its innovative and sleek design, this year Plaud Note Pro received the prestigious iF Design Award and a Reddot Design Award for product design. Plaud also achieved Euromonitor recognition as the world's No. 1 AI note-taking device brand.
Plaud NotePin S is designed to be worn naturally as a wristband, necklace, pin, or clip. With hands-free functionality, Plaud NotePin S functions as a portable AI notetaker that stays unobtrusive while ensuring important details are never lost.
Both Plaud Note Pro and Plaud NotePin S support Apple Find My, allowing users to locate their device via iPhone, iPad, or Mac (firmware V1.5 required).
"What sets Plaud apart is our design to work in all scenarios: in-person, over the phone or on screen. It's how intelligence naturally flows," said Nathan Xu, Co-founder and CEO of Plaud. "Capturing conversations in their natural form is the best way to empower people in real life. Our mission is to amplify human intelligence, and our latest innovations reinforce our commitment to this promise."
Powered by Plaud Intelligence™
The Plaud ecosystem is powered by Plaud Intelligence™, which transforms recordings into structured summaries, action items and insights using multimodal AI. Users can also access notes across the Plaud App (available for both iOS and Android users) and Plaud Web, with support for the company's broader productivity tools and professional templates.
