This app discretely runs in the background of your meeting and doesn’t “join” your call. - Works anywhere you do. You don’t need to be on a zoom to activate. Works just as great in the field as it does in the office. - Customizable. Most recorders are built for generic office jobs.

Your data stays secure. - No ads, ever. - Shareable notes. Notes are immediately delivered to your inbox so you can share or integrate them into your CRM tools. What the app does not do: LazyNotes isn’t recording audio for playback purposes -- just the notes are retained. This app is intended to mimic real note taking, not a call recorder.
