The Pro plan unlocks the Obsidian integration so transcriptions and notes flow into your vault automatically.
Overview
Vowen can automatically send transcriptions to your Obsidian vault, appending them to your daily note or a specified file.Setup
- Open Settings > Meeting Notes > Integrations and click Configure Obsidian
- Set your Vault Path — the directory where your Obsidian vault lives
- Optionally set a Folder — the parent folder inside the vault that Vowen writes into (defaults to
Vowen). A live hint shows where notes will land, e.g.Notes will be saved to: MyVault/Vowen/ - Under What to save, choose whether to write the Summary, the Transcript, or both (both are on by default). At least one must stay enabled
- Enable the integration
How It Works
When a meeting note finishes, Vowen creates a dedicated folder for that note inside your chosen parent folder and writes the content as Markdown files:- Each note gets its own subfolder named after the note’s title (illegal path characters are replaced, and duplicate titles are auto-numbered as
Title (1),Title (2), and so on) summary.mdholds the AI summary;transcript.mdholds the full transcript. A file is only written when that content exists and you’ve kept it enabled under What to save- Every file includes YAML frontmatter with
title,date,source: vowen,type(summaryortranscript), andtemplate(the name of the summary template that produced the note)
template, type, and source fields and the full transcript ships as its own file, you can drive Obsidian Templater, QuickAdd, or Dataview flows keyed off any of those values — for example, auto-routing or post-processing notes by template name.
Syncing a Note on Demand
Meeting notes sync to your vault automatically when they finish, but you can also push a single note manually. Open any meeting note and click Sync to Obsidian — Vowen writes (or updates) that note in your vault right away and confirms with a toast. This is useful after you edit a summary, rename a note, or change the What to save options and want to refresh what’s already in the vault.Use Cases
- Voice journaling — dictate thoughts throughout the day, find them in your vault
- Meeting notes — automatically capture what you discuss
- Quick capture — speak ideas and find them organized in Obsidian later
- Research notes — dictate observations and have them searchable
