Expanding Nutshell’s Conversational AI With Notetaker 

Chris Cain VP of Product Development, Nutshell Last updated on: August 6, 2024

Sometimes, typing notes about a customer call or interaction with a prospect just isn’t as fast as you’d like it to be, especially if you have a lot to write down. 

Introducing Nutshell Notetaker, the new voice-to-text tool as part of Power AI, our plan powered by artificial intelligence. Notetaker helps you get your thoughts down faster. With Notetaker, you’ll be able to quickly and accurately add notes, comment on logged activities, mention teammates, and write emails in Nutshell—all using your voice instead of your keyboard.

You talk, and Nutshell types. Simple as that!

How does Notetaker work? 

Notetaker uses your computer’s microphone to record and transcribe your voice into text in Nutshell for faster note-taking. 

There are three convenient places where you can use Notetaker: 

1. In the ‘Log an activity’ and ‘Write a note’ tabs on top of Person, Company, and Lead timelines:

2. The notes section in the activity dialog:

3. In your Nutshell email composer:

How do I use Notetaker?

To use Notetaker, you’ll first need to grant Nutshell permission to your computer’s microphone so Notetaker can transcribe your voice.

When you click the Notetaker button for the first time, you’ll see a dialog popup requesting access to your computer’s microphone. Once you allow access, you’ll be ready to start transcribing notes.  

The next time you click the Notetaker button, the button will change to the red recording icon to indicate that your voice is now being recorded. All you need to do is start speaking and Nutshell will turn your spoken words into written text. Click the button a final time to stop the recording and edit your notes if needed.
