Adobe Podcast is a browser-based audio recording, transcription, and editing tool from Adobe. Its Studio records high-quality audio solo or with remote guests, capturing each participant as an individual track, then transcribes every word using the same transcription engine as Adobe Premiere Pro. The result is a text-based editing workflow: once a recording is transcribed, you cut, copy, paste, and delete words in the transcript and the corresponding audio (or video) is edited to match, so you edit sound like a document. It supports speaker detection to automatically label different speakers in the transcript. Beyond editing, it includes Enhance Speech to remove background noise and echo, and Mic Check, an AI analysis that diagnoses microphone problems before recording. It is aimed primarily at podcasters and creators producing spoken-word audio and video, but its transcription, speaker labeling, and voice-to-text capabilities make it usable for turning any recorded conversation into editable text. Adobe Podcast runs in the browser, with full Studio recording and editing officially supported in desktop Google Chrome.

Akiflow Meeting Assistant is a meeting note-taker integrated directly into Akiflow, the time-blocking planner and calendar app. Once enabled in Settings under the AI Center, it connects to a chosen calendar account and automatically joins scheduled online meetings on Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams. After a call ends, it records and transcribes the conversation with speaker identification, then produces an AI-generated summary of the main points and decisions, with the transcript typically ready within minutes and an email notification when it's done. A distinguishing trait is how tightly it ties into Akiflow's workflow: it detects action items from the discussion and lets you turn them into Akiflow tasks with one click, and it can draft a follow-up email pre-filled with the summary, action items, and attendees. Reviewers can also play back the meeting audio in-app while reading the transcript. It works on both desktop and mobile, with a streamlined mobile interface for quick review. It is aimed at professionals who already plan their day in Akiflow and want meeting capture without leaving the app.
