Mercedes-Benz yet again redefined the in-car experience with the launch of MBUX Notes, a pioneering speech-enabled note-taking app designed to enhance productivity and convenience for drivers and passengers.
The feature offers a hands-free, multilingual platform for creating voice notes, from everyday lists and meeting agendas to creative ideas for projects.
Whether jotting down a grocery list or outlining a blog post, users can dictate notes securely while focusing on their journey. The app employs advanced generative AI capabilities, specifically OpenAI’s GPT-4o, to summarise and organise voice inputs into concise, bullet-pointed lists. With end-to-end encryption, these notes remain secure and private, reflecting Mercedes-Benz’s commitment to data protection.
Enhanced Connectivity, Accessibility
Once a note is completed, users can request an intelligent summary readback or share their notes through a growing list of email clients like Gmail and Microsoft Outlook. MBUX Notes also integrates seamlessly with productivity tools such as OneNote and Outlook Notes, making it easier for users to manage and access their information outside the vehicle.
Global Availability
Already available in 30 European markets, including Germany, France, and Italy, MBUX Notes will soon expand to nine additional countries, including the USA, Japan, and Australia. The app is compatible with its models equipped with the third-generation MBUX Infotainment system and an active MBUX Entertainment Package Plus subscription. This expansion solidifies the brand’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge digital solutions worldwide.
Safer, Smarter Driving Experience
By enabling secure, AI-enhanced voice note-taking, the app transforms drive time into a productive and seamless experience. Users no longer need to worry about managing tasks or capturing fleeting ideas—MBUX Notes ensures everything is at their fingertips, with privacy and security at the core.
Looking Ahead
As the automaker continues to integrate generative AI into its vehicles, MBUX Notes represents a significant step toward a future where cars are not only modes of transport but also hubs of productivity and innovation. By marrying cutting-edge technology with everyday utility, the OEM reaffirms its position as a leader in shaping the next generation of intelligent mobility.
