AI Life / Gadgets / AI Recorders
A recorder on its own gives you a pile of transcripts. The value comes from where they go next. This is my setup with Pocket. More on the AI recorder hub .
The flow
- Capture. Pocket records meetings and calls. I don’t have to remember to start an app.
- Summarize. Pocket’s app writes the summary and pulls action items.
- File. Notes go into Obsidian. I wrote up how in Pocket to Obsidian .
- Use. My agent reads the notes when I ask about a customer, a decision, or what I promised someone.
Why it works
- No meter on transcription, so I record everything instead of picking (Pocket price ).
- The notes are searchable in plain text, not locked in one app.
- The agent can read them, so I can ask questions instead of scrolling.
Making it yours
- Start with one habit: recording every external call.
- Tag notes by person or project.
- Review action items once a day.
For the settings I use, see best Pocket settings . If you want to prep calls from those notes, see best AI note taker with no bot in the call . Students can use the same idea with Gemini Notebook .
What my agent can do with it
This is where the agent earns its keep. Through the Pocket MCP server , my agent can answer “what did we decide on Tuesday” without me opening anything. More in Pocket as an AI agent .
