Taking notes is the worst job in the room

Whoever writes the minutes misses the meeting. Then they lose an evening typing it up. Klaru does that job, so everyone can take part.

The usual way

One person scribbles and misses half of it

Hours of typing up afterwards

“Who agreed to do that again?”

Arguments about what was decided

Afrikaans and English notes all mixed up

With Klaru

Every phone listens, so nothing slips by

Notes ready minutes after you finish

Every topic linked to the moment it was said

Everyone sees the same record

Read it in Afrikaans or English, your choice

How it works

Three steps. About a minute.

Most note-takers fall apart when people switch languages. Klaru was built in South Africa to follow along, word for word, and then give you the notes in the language you prefer.

Questions

Good to know

Do I need special microphones?

No. Everyone puts their own phone on the table and opens a link. Each phone listens to the people closest to it. If only one phone is in the room, that works too.

Do the other people need the app or an account?

No. Guests scan a code or tap a link, agree to be recorded, and their phone joins as a microphone. Nothing to download, and guests never pay.

Which languages does it understand?

Afrikaans, English, and both mixed in the same sentence, the way South Africans actually talk. On Pro you can also translate the transcript and minutes from one to the other.

How soon are the notes ready?

A few minutes after you stop the recording. You get a short headline, a summary, the matters discussed, formal minutes and the full transcript.

Who needs to pay?

Only the person who records. Everyone who opens a Pro member's meeting gets full access to it, and guests are always free.

How accurate is it?

Very good with clear speech, and it gets better with more phones spread around the table. Every topic links to the moment it was said, so you can listen back and check anything.

Where is my data kept?

In South Africa. Nobody is recorded until they agree, we don't store voiceprints, and we never sell your meetings or use them to train AI.

Can I cancel?

Yes, any time in Settings. Pro stays on until the end of the period you paid for. You can also switch between monthly and yearly.

How do I pay?

Securely by card through PayFast, South Africa's trusted payment gateway. Prices are in rand and include VAT.
