Feb 6, 2025 | CES

At ShowStoppers at CES in Las Vegas we caught up with Jeff Gadway, Senior Vice President of Product Marketing for Clicks Technology.

Jeff talks about how and why it has been adopted by their users, how it improves accessibility, and the range of iPhone models they now support. We also cover the improvements to Clicks that include built-in MagSafe, a data pass-through mode that makes it CarPlay compatible, a redesigned keyboard, and some great support for Shortcuts.

Feb 5, 2025 | CES

The PLAUD table at ShowStoppers at CES in Las Vegas was tough to get to because of the interested crowds…and it shows in our interview with Elina Tsao, Head of Brand Center. People keep sticking their heads into our shot as Elina explained how their PLAUD NOTE and NotePin capture the audio of your conversations, then transcribes it and even summarizes it via AI. Both feature a generous free package of time, encrypted communication with AI in the cloud, and a very specific activation to help make others around you comfortable with when they are and are not being recorded.
