About The Entry

Traditional single-microphone voice recorders fall short in modern dynamic meetings. Voices beyond 3 meters grow muffled when speakers are dispersed, and simultaneous speech makes speaker identification impossible. Users waste up to 40% of meeting time manually labeling transcripts, severely hampering productivity.

RECO redefines meeting recording with an innovative modular magnetic system. It features a palm-sized main module and two detachable magnetic sub-modules that can be placed anywhere on tables or chairs. This distributed architecture extends the effective pickup range to 10 meters, delivering crystal-clear audio from every participant, regardless of their seat.

Sub-modules have LED indicators for real-time pickup status monitoring, while the main module serves as the central processing hub. After recording, RECO’s AI engine automatically generates structured transcripts with timestamps and speaker labels, eliminating tedious manual work entirely. Additional features include customizable vibration countdowns, remote PPT control, and seamless cloud sync with mobile devices.

When not in use, sub-modules magnetically dock inside the main module’s leather-wrapped cabin, forming a compact, pocketable unit. RECO seamlessly adapts to diverse scenarios: business meetings, university lectures, press interviews, and hybrid remote conferences.

RECO = Record + Connect, capturing every important conversation. Rooted in the philosophy of simplicity, efficiency, and intelligence, RECO directly addresses the long-standing pain points of traditional recording devices. We craft an intuitive recording experience for professionals and students alike, freeing you from the distraction of note-taking so you can fully engage in meaningful dialogue.
