Intelligent MBUX notes app by Mercedes-Benz
London, December 05, 2024, (Oilandgaspress) –––With the introduction of its new speech-enabled note-taking app, MBUX Notes, Mercedes‑Benz is further expanding its in-car generative AI capabilities to elevate the digital experience for drivers and passengers alike. The in-house developed app enables hands-free, multilingual voice notes – from grocery lists and meeting agendas to capturing and organising ideas for a blog or renovation project. The Notes app, one of the first intelligent, in-car note-taking apps using generative AI offered by a carmaker, gives customers a safer and more comfortable way to use their drive time more productively. Utilising end-to-end encryption between the car and backend, the anonymised voice notes are sent to the Mercedes‑Benz Intelligent Cloud, where they’re summarised and structured using Open AI’s GPT-4o generative AI. Once a user has finished a note, they can ask MBUX Notes to read back the intelligent summary to them before sharing the notes via an expanding selection of email clients. This functionality makes it convenient to access notes beyond the vehicle. MBUX Notes can also be connected to a growing list of other popular note-taking and productivity apps.
The MBUX Notes app is already available for customers in 30 European markets, with nine further markets – including the USA and Japan – soon to follow. The app is available in Mercedes-Benz models with the third-generation MBUX Infotainment system[1] and an active MBUX Entertainment Package Plus subscription[2].
