And I'm really glad that we've started talking about Edward III, because I was reading your book about the Plantagenets, and he is just the most incredible historical figure, particularly where he took England from with the reign of Edward II, which I think we should touch on, to how he ascended to the throne.
Let's talk about Edward III briefly.
Most of the useful information I get in a week doesn't come from reading.
It comes from conversations, meeting, calls, interviews.
The problem is that spoken information disappears unless you're stopping to write things down, which means you're not actually in the conversation anymore.
That's the problem Plaud solves.
It's a compact device that captures conversations and turns them into searchable notes, summaries, and insights you can actually use later.
You can ask it a specific question like, what were the actual points from that call?
And it pulls the moment and the summary instantly.
It also recognizes individual voices.
So once you've labeled who's speaking, it tracks them across every future recording.
It's about the size of a credit card, so it's easy to carry and always available when conversation matters.
This thing has solved a real problem for me.
I was skeptical at first, another AI gadget, but the case is straightforward enough that it actually works.
You stop trying to document while you're thinking, and it turns out you think considerably better when you're not.
Whether it's a meeting, interview, consultation, or call, the notes are there when you need them without having to choose between listening and writing.

Because it's a remarkable transformation in the fortunes of England when you look at
Edward II, who was essentially deposed, constantly at war with the barons, England was broke, to where it was under Edward III, who was this incredibly charismatic ruler, and then went and then stuffed the French battle after battle after battle.
