Where deHertz wins, and where it doesn't.
An honest look at the three ways people capture conversations today, including the cases where you should not buy ours.
Side by side
Three approaches.
| deHertz | Phone recorder | Meeting bot | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Works in person | Yes, worn all day | Yes, if you remember to start it | No — video calls only |
| Works on video calls | Yes, records the room audio | Yes | Yes, natively |
| Changes the room | No, it is jewelry | Yes — a phone on the table is noticed | Yes — a bot joins visibly |
| Recording time | 18 hours continuous | Limited by your phone battery | Length of the call |
| Summaries | Automatic, per conversation and per day | None | Usually yes |
| Search across everything | Full-text, every recording | No | Within that tool only |
| Arabic support | Yes, 15 languages including Arabic and Urdu | Depends on the app | Often weak outside English |
| Cost | AED 499/year, hardware included | Free | Typically a monthly seat fee |
Being straight about it
When not to buy deHertz.
We would rather you skip it than return it.
A phone is free, and always with you
If you only need to record occasionally and do not mind putting a phone on the table, your phone is genuinely fine. deHertz is for people who are in conversation all day and cannot keep starting an app.
Meeting bots are better for remote-only teams
If every meeting you have is a video call, a bot that joins the call will get cleaner audio than any microphone in a room. deHertz earns its place when the important conversations happen in person.
We are new, and they are not
The established AI note takers have years of reviews behind them. We have a product built for how meetings actually run in the Gulf, and a 14-day return window so you can decide for yourself.
