CraftNote review
Final score: 32/100 · Grade F · Not recommended
Offline-capable EU notetaker for compliance-sensitive teams.
Designed for regulated industries that can't send audio to US clouds. Runs on-device or EU-hosted with strict retention controls. Smaller ecosystem and no live coaching features.
