On storage:Recolx Tap and Plaud Note both save the original audio recording to 64GB of on-device storage, so you can always go back to the source recording. NeoSapien's published materials describe a transcribe-then-process flow without a stated on-device audio archive — worth confirming directly with NeoSapien if keeping the raw recording matters for your use case.
On availability: Recolx Tap and NeoSapien both ship within India with local pricing; Plaud is a global brand without confirmed India pricing or availability at the time of writing.
A note on privacy questions: Independent coverage of NeoSapien (Tech2) has raised open questions about data retention policy and bystander consent for its always-listening pendant format. We'd encourage comparing each brand's current privacy documentation directly — see our own approach on the Privacy & Security page.
