Zeno, a sub-brand of itel, has unveiled the Weaver-a compact AI-powered voice recorder designed to boost productivity by automatically transcribing and organizing meeting conversations into structured notes.
Aimed at professionals, Weaver is ideal for capturing meetings, interviews, and lectures. Its standout feature is automatic speech transcription paired with smart analysis that converts recordings into various formats like meeting minutes, notes, blog drafts, video scripts, and even mind maps.
The device leverages an AI engine based on ChatGPT 4.0, enabling it to understand and structure dialogues. This frees users from manual note-taking, allowing them to focus fully on discussions.
Weaver is equipped with multiple noise-cancelling microphones to enhance recording clarity and transcription accuracy. Its ultra-slim chassis matches the size of a credit card and supports MagSafe, so it can conveniently attach to a smartphone. A leather case comes included in the package.
The device offers up to 40 hours of continuous recording and can stay on standby for up to 40 days. It houses 32 GB of onboard storage and supports Bluetooth 5.4 and 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi. Recordings, transcriptions, and summaries are managed through the proprietary AI Recorder app, available for Android and iOS.
Users receive 300 minutes of free transcription per month, with a Pro subscription unlocking unlimited transcription, advanced templates, cloud storage, and multi-device support.
Weaver is currently sold exclusively through Amazon India, priced at approximately 11,816 rupees (roughly $140 USD). It is positioned as a handy tool for business communication and information management, competing with popular smart recorders like the Livescribe smartpen and AI transcription services integrated into mainstream apps.
Unlike many Western smart dictation tools that rely heavily on smartphone apps, Weaver combines hardware convenience with ChatGPT’s conversational AI capabilities in a standalone device. This points toward a niche for specialized AI recorders that can offload meeting documentation without tethering users to phones or laptops. It will be interesting to see whether Weaver expands to markets outside India in the future.
