Shortlist 123 Notetaker AI when teams-centric organizations that do not have or want copilot licenses matters most, and Monologue when recording and transcribing personal voice notes, calls, and meetings, then generating summaries matters most.

123 Notetaker AI is an AI meeting notes and transcription app for Microsoft Teams, built by BlueSky Apps. It runs entirely inside the Teams interface and does not depend on Microsoft Copilot, giving teams an independent option for capturing meetings. During a call, participants can open the app from the meeting window to follow AI-powered transcription that appears in real time in the Teams app sidebar. After the meeting ends, 123 Notetaker AI generates a summary and emails the meeting notes, while transcripts and notes are stored in the user's BlueSky account for later reference. Because it is installed from the Microsoft commercial marketplace and operates within Teams rather than as a browser overlay or external bot, it fits organizations that want note-taking contained in their existing Teams workflow. BlueSky Apps offers a family of conferencing add-ons across Teams, Zoom, and Google Meet, and provides a free plan with paid upgrades for additional capacity and features. The app is currently listed and operating in 2025-2026, and is documented in the company's help center and several third-party Teams tool roundups. Pricing varies by plan. Check the official website for current pricing.

On iOS a custom keyboard works across every app, with Live Activity support in the Dynamic Island, and preferences, modes, and a personal dictionary sync across devices. Beyond dictation, a Notes feature lets you record freeform thoughts, calls, and meetings, then transcribe and summarize them, and route captured notes to tools like Notion via an API, CLI, and MCP integrations. It supports 100+ languages and mixed-language speech. The company states audio and transcripts are not retained on its servers, with offline transcription available. It targets professionals across many fields who want faster, hands-free writing.
