There's definitely a segment of people for which GSuite access and cloud storage of notes is a non-starter, but in many cases those can be mitigated even when it comes to early adopters in larger enterprise companies (eg SOC-2 compliance). On top of that, you get a lot of the usual benefits when using a collaborative tool: others can help take notes for your meetings so that effort is shared, agendas can be prepared beforehand, contributed to by all the meeting attendees, and easily accessed via your meeting invite.

Understood, right now your meeting notes are not encrypted, but stored in a secure database on our server. We are currently considering two options to make sure your notes are safe: either end-to-end encryption on our servers or offline-based storage for your notes.

Thanks for the remark

I was super excited until I saw this; I guess I'll have to wait. Offline storage is essential for a number of reasons, not the least of which is the ability to reach my notes if Hera is having an outage.

Totally understandable!

Look at Agenda. You connect your calendar locally (with optional iCloud or Dropbox sync) and then you have a note that’s attached to a calendar event and a project (client name, coworker name, whatever.) Each note has a to-review/to-complete status and you can save searches to keep on top of your notes and plan ahead. It’s a really smart model and saves me a lot of time.
