Ask what your doctor said last Tuesday. Get the three action items from today's standup, already written. Ramble on a walk and have an organized plan by the time you're home. TwinMind is a free AI note taker that remembers everything you hear and say — meetings, conversations, lectures, phone calls and voice notes — so you never forget a thing.
It is free: the Free plan has unlimited capture hours and unlimited summaries, which is why TwinMind calls itself the #1 free alternative to Granola. It works in 140+ languages, detects the language automatically and can translate in real time.
