Sharpening the Quill: How Yuan Discovered the Power of Selective Listening
When Yuan needed just one person's comments from an hour-long meeting, they discovered what makes Quill different.
Eight weeks ago, Yuan started using Quill for meeting notes. Today, they're using it as a daily voice diary. Here's their story:
"I've tried countless note-taking and meeting recap products, but Quill? It's honestly the best I've ever used. You guys really did an amazing job!
My 'aha moment' came during a team meeting when I realized I didn't need the entire summary—I only cared about what two specific people had said. With other tools, I'd have to scrub through recordings or wade through pages of notes.
But with Quill, I simply described what I wanted in natural language: 'Show me what Sarah and Mike said about the product roadmap.' And it understood me. Not only did it pull their exact quotes, but I could instantly play the audio of those specific moments. That's when I knew this was different—it's really smart and intuitive.
The response speed is impressive, and the accuracy is generally quite good. The interface is clean and visually appealing, which makes the whole experience even better.
But here's where it gets interesting: I've started using Quill beyond meetings. It's become my daily diary where I record voice notes throughout the day, then export everything to Notion. From morning reflections to random ideas during my commute, Quill captures it all.
"I really couldn't lose Quill in my life now. Thanks for building such a fantastic product!"
Yuan's evolution from meeting summaries to voice journaling shows how Quill grows with you—starting as a meeting assistant and becoming an indispensable daily companion.
