Are you still scrambling to take notes during meetings? There's a better way.

Evernote has a built-in AI meeting notetaker that records, transcribes, and summarizes every meeting for you. No extra app. No extra cost. It's already included in all Evernote plans.

I walk through the whole setup in my latest video: how to link your note to your calendar, record the meeting, get a verbatim transcript, and use the Evernote AI Assistant to produce thekind of meeting notes you actually want. If you're tired of messy notes and missed details, this one's for you. Check it out and let me know what you think in the comments!

Are you using Evernote the same way you were five years ago?

Most of us settle into a routine with the tools we love and miss the updates that come along. But Evernote's note editor has some features worth knowing about, and a few of them are brand new.

Here's a quick rundown:

Collapsible headers let you fold sections of a long note so only the top-level headings are visible. This is great for long notes, and it's especially helpful when you're referencing notes from your phone.

Every header has its own link. Copy it and paste it anywhere, including your task manager. One click takes you to that exact spot in your notes.

The floating table of contents sits in the right-hand margin of your note. Mouse over the faint gray lines and a full table of contents appears. Click any entry to jump there instantly.

Callouts are the newest addition. They're a visual element that adds emphasis to your notes and shows up in shared views too.

If you're paying for Evernote, all of these features are already available to you. The question is whether you're using them.
