What is the difference between an AI notetaker and a requirements tool?
Short answer
A notetaker gives you a transcript and a summary of what was said. A requirements tool gives you the artefacts the project needs afterwards: numbered requirements, decision records, open questions, a traceability matrix and a plan, each one traced back to the sentence that produced it. Segua.ai is the second kind, and it includes the transcription.
How to do it
- 1
Ask what you do the day after the meeting
If you only reread the summary, a notetaker is enough. If you rewrite the requirements and the plan, it is not.
- 2
Check whether output is editable and versioned
A summary you cannot revise, with no history, cannot be used as a project document.
- 3
Check traceability
The question 'who asked for this, and when' has to be answerable from the tool, not from memory.
- 4
Check who pays to read
Reviewers and clients should be able to read the output without a licence.
Good to know
- Segua.ai includes transcription, so a separate notetaker is not required.
- Output is editable, versioned and exportable to Word.
- People who receive your documents pay nothing.
- Your first meeting is free, no card required, and there is a public demo that summarises one meeting without an account.
Related questions
- Can I keep my current notetaker?
- Yes. Paste or upload its transcript and Segua.ai produces the documents from it.
- Is this a project management tool?
- It covers the documentation and follow-up side. Execution can stay in the tracker your team already uses.
- What about privacy?
- Audio is processed in memory and not stored, names are pseudonymised before any AI call, and each project is isolated.
