TL;DR: The Focais is a voice-activated audio recorder that takes notes for you, and it's 46% off. 


Whether it's in a classroom or at the office, taking notes is kind of annoying. You write something down and end up missing the next important bit. But, modern technology can solve classic problems. 

The Focais: Meet One is an AI-powered audio recorder. It listens to every spoken word around you and takes notes. Turn it on, and it'll listen up, summarize key points, and save you a ton of time. Plus, it just went on sale. Instead of paying $149, you can get one of these voice-activated AI recorders on sale for $79.99. 

Change the way you work or study

How is this smart voice recorder any different than just taking videos of meetings or classes on your phone? Here’s exactly why:

  • It only records when it detects sound to save memory and battery

  • AI enhances voice clarity while minimizing background noise

  • OpenAI’s Whisper transcribes voices into text with 98% accuracy, including timestamps

  • AI automatically summarizes conversations 

  • If you’re in a language course or international business meeting, you can also get AI translations in over 120 languages

Sure, you could record that hour-long lecture on your phone, upload it to ChatGPT, and see if you get a decent transcript to summarize. Or, you could just hit record on this gadget and have it all done automatically.

Listen to your recordings and view the transcripts and summaries on the iOS and Android app. You’ll also be able to easily share files with anyone if you’re feeling generous.
