Jamie is the most privacy-serious meeting notetaker in the category: no bot in the call, no audio retained, EU data residency, ISO 27001. Intriq is not a better version of that. It is a different tool: it records the conversations you start on your iPhone, including the in-person ones no desktop notetaker sees, and organizes what you keep around the person.

Choose Jamie if you want accurate notes from your meetings and you want that done as privately as a notetaker can reasonably be done. Choose Intriq if what you keep losing is not the content of meetings but your memory of people, including everyone you talk to away from a scheduled call.

Jamie is the notetaker to beat on privacy, and it is worth being straight about that. There is no bot in the participant list, the audio is not retained after transcription, the data sits in the EU, and they hold ISO 27001. For anyone operating under GDPR who nonetheless needs meeting notes, that combination is genuinely hard to match, and Intriq does not try to.
The product itself is also good. Notes are clean, action items are extracted, speakers are identified, and it works across a very long list of languages. If your problem is that you want reliable meeting notes without the compliance argument that usually comes with them, Jamie is a strong answer.
The distinction is narrower than with most notetakers, so it is worth being precise. Jamie runs on your computer and transcribes the meetings it hears there. Intriq runs on your iPhone and Apple Watch and records only the conversations you start, for up to two hours with the screen locked. It summarizes each one, links the people it detected for you to confirm, and files what you keep under them. For the conversations you would rather not record, a line typed or said afterwards lands in the same place.
That matters most for the conversations Jamie is not in. A desktop notetaker runs on scheduled calls at a machine. The dinner, the corridor, the walk to the station, the conference badge table: no notetaker is running there, and those are frequently where you learn the thing worth remembering about someone.
Jamie produces an excellent record of a meeting. Six months later you have a folder of excellent records, and the person you are about to see is spread across nine of them. Reconstructing what you know about them means opening all nine.
Intriq inverts that. Nothing is filed by meeting; everything is filed by person. Before you see someone, the accumulated read is already assembled, because it was never scattered in the first place. That is a different job from note-taking, and it is why running both is coherent rather than redundant.
Scenarios
Consultant under GDPR who needs meeting records
Works with EU clients, needs an accurate written record of each engagement call, and has to be able to explain to a client exactly where the data lives and how long it is kept.
Best fit: Jamie . EU residency, no stored audio, and ISO 27001 make Jamie the defensible answer for engagement calls at a desk.
Founder whose important conversations are not meetings
Learns the most useful things at dinners, conferences, and unplanned coffees, where no desktop app is running and nobody is at a laptop.
Best fit: Intriq . Jamie only sees scheduled calls on a machine. Intriq records on the phone in your pocket, or takes a note a minute later, for conversations that were never a meeting.
Team that needs shared, searchable meeting notes
Several colleagues need the same reliable write-up of each client call, in their own language, with action items assigned.
Best fit: Jamie . Shared meeting notes with extracted actions across many languages is Jamie's core product. Intriq is single-user by design.
Jamie user who still forgets people
Has clean notes for every call and still walks into a review having forgotten the client changed roles and mentioned a family move that explains the delayed decision.
Best fit: Either Jamie or Intriq, depending on emphasis . Keep Jamie for the meeting record; add Intriq for the per-person memory that spans meetings and covers the conversations Jamie was never in.

When Jamie is the better fit
Jamie is the better choice when you need the meeting written up and you need to be able to defend how that was done: no bot, no retained audio, EU hosting, ISO 27001. If your work involves European clients and formal records, it is the notetaker with the fewest awkward questions attached.
When Intriq is the better fit
Intriq is the better choice when the thing you keep losing is your memory of people rather than the content of meetings, when most of what matters is said away from a scheduled call, and when you want recording to be something you start, on your own phone, for the conversation in front of you. It is single-user, records only when you start it, and organizes everything around the person.
Common questions
For notes on your desktop calls, Jamie is built for the job. For remembering people across conversations, Intriq is the better fit: it records and summarizes the conversations you start on your iPhone, organizes everything by person, and covers the conversations Jamie never sees, because Jamie organizes by meeting and only sees scheduled calls.
They are private in different ways. Jamie captures and transcribes meetings on your computer, then discards the audio, and for EU data residency and ISO 27001 it is ahead of Intriq. Intriq records only when you start it, keeps what you record in your own private, single-user account, and keeps notes private to you. For a conversation you would rather not record at all, a note afterwards keeps what mattered without anyone else's voice.
That is what it is built for. Start a recording on your iPhone, or from an Apple Watch when taking out a phone would interrupt, and it runs for up to two hours with the screen locked. Or skip the recording and capture the takeaway a minute afterwards. Either way there is no extra device to set up.
Yes, and it is a clean split. Jamie writes up the meetings you take at a machine. Intriq holds the per-person memory spanning those meetings plus every dinner, corridor conversation, and introduction that never appeared on a calendar.
Jamie, if what you need is a compliant meeting-notes product with EU data residency and ISO 27001 certification to point at. Intriq's posture is different rather than more certified: it is single-user, records only when you start it, and keeps notes private to you, so the only data that exists is what you chose to keep, held for you alone.
For an individual, generally yes. Jamie's free tier covers 10 meetings a month and paid plans run around €25 to €47 a month. Intriq has a free plan with 30 AI credits a day and Plus with 600, a recorded minute costs 1 credit, and nothing is counted per meeting.
Free plan, no credit card. Capture notes in plain English, by typing or by voice, and recall the context before the next conversation.
