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

  1. Open Settings > Meeting Notes > Integrations and click Configure Obsidian
  2. Set your Vault Path — the directory where your Obsidian vault lives
  3. 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/
  4. 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
  5. 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: 
<vault>/<Folder>/<Note title>/
├── summary.md
└── transcript.md
  • 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.md holds the AI summary; transcript.md holds 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 (summary or transcript), and template (the name of the summary template that produced the note)
Because the frontmatter carries the 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
