What Are the Best AI Note-Taker Apps in 2026?

📄 apps/web/content/articles/best-ai-notetaker.mdx

The article is well-written with strong voice and helpful content. Main issues are em dashes that need replacement (lines 35, 63), one punctuation placement error with quotation marks (line 106), and minor clarity improvements (lines 6, 181, 287). Overall structure, tone, and organization are solid. No significant spelling errors or grammar problems detected beyond the flagged issues.

Found 6 issues:

🔹 Punctuation Placement

Line 15

Until.. AI came in the picture.

Double ellipsis is incorrect punctuation; 'came in the picture' is awkward phrasing. Better as 'came into the picture'.

Until AI came into the picture.

Line 115

I'm obsessed with Obsidian. Their file over app manifesto hits home. Everything is plain markdown files on your device. If Obsidian dies tomorrow, your notes survive.

Punctuation with quotes should follow British style: the period goes outside. Also, the link markup around 'file over app' should be replaced with quotation marks for clarity.

I'm obsessed with [Obsidian](https://www.google.com/url?q=https://obsidian.md/&sa=D&source=editors&ust=1768759307556808&usg=AOvVaw3iVOX-hmrHgHJ6pcIa6TfH). Their 'file over app' manifesto hits home. Everything is plain markdown files on your device. If Obsidian dies tomorrow, your notes survive.

🔸 Em Dashes

Line 44

At its core, it applies large language models to turn raw input—whether that's typed notes, voice recordings, or transcribed conversations—into something actually useful.

Em dashes must be replaced with regular dashes or the sentence rewritten.

That's why Char exists. It runs on your device by default (local-first)—Whisper models for transcription, our custom HyperLLM-V1 for summarization. Nothing leaves your machine unless you choose to sync.

💡 Clarity

Line 190

Notion, an all-in-one workspace tool, now has AI. Chat that searches your workspace, writing assistance that drafts and edits, meeting transcription without bots. The appeal is not switching tools.

Awkward phrasing: 'The appeal is not switching tools' is ambiguous. Better as 'The appeal is avoiding tool switching'.

Line 296

$10/month (must pay $120 annually). 14-day free trial.

The parenthetical about annual payment should clarify that this is the only payment option, not an alternative pricing structure. Consider rephrasing for clarity.
