Plaud export & integrate
Rule: Export edited artifacts — transcript + your summary pass + highlights — not raw first drafts for submission.
Export formats (Plaud supports 27+)
| Format | Best for |
|---|---|
| Archive, print, submit where formatting fixed | |
| Word (.docx) | Further editing → word-documents |
| TXT / Markdown | Git notes, Obsidian, dev workflows |
| Mind map | Concept overview before exam |
| Audio clip | Cite exact moment in presentation |
Pick format in app Share / Export menu (wording varies by platform).
Word handoff workflow
1. Export summary as DOCX
2. word-documents → apply Heading styles, page numbers
3. citation-literacy → if quoting professor or readings mentioned
4. onedrive-organization → save to Course/Assignments path
Microsoft 365 integration path

No native Plaud API documented here — use official export/share buttons.
Mind maps for review
- Generate after final summary edit
- Use as review scaffold, not sole study source
- Hand-annotate printed mind map for retention
Retention & backup
- Plaud cloud storage marketed as unlimited — still export critical finals locally each term
- End-of-semester: zip
School/2026-Fall/including Plaud exports
Boundaries
- Respect export restrictions on others' voices
- LMS upload: check file size limits; PDF often safest
