Productivity tools are evolving quickly these days. I used to take all my notes on pen and paper — but as the technology has changed, I’ve tried lots of other ways to manage information. I’ve even taught a whole class on LinkedIn Learning to boost your note-taking skills.

One tool I’m loving these days is Fathom, an AI-powered note-taking tool. Fathom promises to make note-taking not just easier but smarter… and I have to say, they deliver.

Fathom is a note-taking tool designed to help you capture and organize information quickly and easily. It lets you record meetings, lectures, webinars, or even casual conversations!

I also use it to send voice memos to myself — these are easily and accurately turned into text. Fathom’s AI transcribes in real-time, turning speech into well-organized (and readable!) notes. It’s great if you want to capture an idea on-the-go and look back at it later. As an author, this is something I use all the time. 

I’ve used other AI note taking tools and I love that Fathom has lots of other helpful functions built in besides just transcription. It can summarize text, highlight key points, and even suggest action items for you.

This is so useful when I’m meeting with clients because I can focus on engaging in the conversation itself — and I also get detailed notes so nothing slips through the cracks. 

Fathom has a ton of helpful features that make it a great option if you’re a first-timer at AI notetaking:

It creates real-time transcription.

Whether you’re in a meeting, attending a lecture, or having a conversation, Fathom uses speech recognition technology to transcribe the conversation as it happens. And get this — Fathom can distinguish between different voices! That means each person’s words are transcribed accurately. I love using it for meetings and I’ve found that it can really be helpful for boosting collaboration and teamwork.

It excels at summarizing.

After the conversation is over, Fathom goes a step further by summarizing the key takeaways from the meeting or lecture. Yep — no more sifting through pages of notes to find something.

It creates actionable insights for you.

Fathom also helps you identify action items and tasks from transcripts. Yep — it’ll write you a to-do list!

You can use it along with other tools.

Fathom can be integrated with Google Docs, Notion, and Evernote. I really appreciate this because it means you can fit Fathom into your productivity routine alongside other tools you’re already using.

Here’s why I use Fathom:

It saves time.

Manual note-taking is super time-consuming! Fathom takes the burden off you so you can focus on engaging in the conversation instead of worrying about jotting down every detail.

It’s more accurate than I am.

Human note-taking is prone to errors. Yep — sometimes we just write down the wrong information. AI is really accurate in this area. Fathom doesn’t miss a thing! 

It helps me stay organized. 

Fathom organizes my notes in a way that makes sense. I can tag notes, categorize them, and search them. It’s so much easier than piles of handwritten notes that can get lost. With an AI notetaker, everything is in one place and you can easily transfer to your other digital productivity tools. 

AI-powered note-taking tools like Fathom can feel like a whole new world when it comes to productivity. I highly suggest giving it a try!
