In 2022, HiDock began as a conversation between two frustrated founders —wondering why personal meeting tools felt so impersonal.
Fast forward three years, and we're proud to celebrate our third anniversary with a global community that helped shape every step of our journey. This story isn't just ours—it's powered by your feedback, your ideas, and your belief in better communication.
Where It All Started: "We can build one for ourselves!"
That single sentence sparked it all.
We believe the shift to remote work is one of the most transformative changes of our generation. As a team focused on audio technology and global support, we constantly found ourselves needing smooth, reliable collaboration with customers around the world.
But back in 2022, the experience was anything but smooth — poor audio quality, high costs, clunky setups, and a mess of devices made remote collaboration feel harder than it needed to be. The tools just weren't built for modern professionals.
So we took things into our own hands.
Our first product — HiDock Speakerphone — was designed to solve these pain points and redefine what a personal meeting tool could be.
It's more than just a speakerphone. It's a productivity booster, combining high-quality voice recording, 4K HDMI output, 100W power delivery, USB 3.0 hub — all in one sleek device built with productivity and privacy at its core.
That's how HiDock was simply born: just for us.
HiDock H1: Designed for Ergonomics, Control, and Powered by AI
Since launching the HiDock Speakerphone, we've actively listened to you — our users — and your insights have directly shaped what came next.
From requests for a detachable cable to adding Ethernet support, your input helped us refine every detail. The praise for HiDock's solid build, sound quality, and intuitive design has fueled our commitment to improvement.
And with your growing needs, we took a bold step forward:
We infused HiDock H1 with AI.
With the integration of HiNotes, our proprietary software, HiDock H1 became more than a productivity tool — it became your AI meeting assistant.
Now, with HiDock H1, you can:
- Record meetings across any meeting platform you work with
- Transcribe conversations in 57+ languages
- Identify speakers and separate their remarks
- Generate smart, structured summaries
- Use pre-set or custom templates to export insights instantly
With AI-powered transcription and automation, HiDock H1 doesn't just record your meetings — it makes sense of them.
You Spoke. We Listened. Here's How HiDock P1 Was Created.
When we launched HiDock H1, we designed it with desktop productivity in mind—something you could rely on for seamless meetings and effortless transcription. But as we started hearing from you, a pattern emerged:
"Can I use my own Bluetooth earbuds?"
"I wish I could take this on the go."
"I love H1, but I need something more portable."
These requests resonated with us. While HiDock H1 was built for stationary use, we realized that many of you wanted a compact, flexible, and mobile solution—something you could use anywhere, with your own trusted earphones.
That's where HiDock P1 started.
Our Design Philosophy: Form Follows Function
One of the biggest takeaways from your feedback was the need for third-party Bluetooth earbud support. Many of you use AirPods, Sony or Bose headphones, and other high-end audio gear—and you didn't want to compromise on quality just to record a meeting or a call.
So, we asked ourselves: How do we make an AI-powered voice recorder that fits into your existing workflow—without extra steps or limitations?
The answer was clear: HiDock P1 should work seamlessly with the Bluetooth earphones you already use.
We focused on simplicity—a one-time pairing process, followed by instant connection every time you press BlueCatch™️. No hassle, no complicated setup—just press, connect, and record.
Built for Portability, Designed for You
Another common piece of feedback was about portability. HiDock H1 is powerful, but it's designed for desks. Some of you carried it around anyway, but many asked for something lighter, smaller, and easier to use on the move.
So, we went back to the drawing board. HiDock P1 had to be:
✅ Compact—small enough to slip into a pocket, clip to your belt, or toss in a bag.
✅ Ergonomic—designed for quick, intuitive control.
✅ Durable & lightweight—built for professionals on the go.
Why HiDock P1 Exists
At the core of this design is a simple goal: break barriers and make recording as effortless as possible.
- Empower Professionals Everywhere – Whether you're in a meeting, conducting an interview, or capturing personal thoughts, P1 gives you studio-level recording in your pocket.
- Simplify Complexity – No extra adapters, no complicated setups—just seamless recording with the audio gear you already love.
-
Build for the Community – Your feedback shaped the HiDock P1. And this is just the beginning.
We built HiDock P1 for you—to fit your workflow, your tools, and your lifestyle. Now, recording, transcribing, and summarizing is easier than ever.
Looking Ahead — Our Vision for Communication
We're not just building tools. We're building a future where AI elevates human communication rather than replaces it.
We envision a world where:
- Every conversation is captured clearly and securely.
- AI helps distill insight without ever replacing intuition.
- Productivity tools respect your privacy, time, and attention.
HiDock is your brand. We craft every product around your workflows, your needs, and your life.
Why June 1st Is Our Brand Day
You might be wondering — why is June 1st HiDock's Brand Day?
It's no coincidence. June 1st is International Children's Day, and for us, it's a meaningful symbol of how we want to build, think, and grow as a team.
We chose this day to remind ourselves of one powerful idea: Stay curious. Keep learning. Never lose that spark.
At HiDock, we believe the best innovations come from a mindset of wonder — the kind that asks “What if?” and isn't afraid to try something new. We want our team to think like explorers, to stay open-minded like kids discovering the world for the first time.
So every year on June 1st, we celebrate not just how far we've come — but how much we're still excited to learn.
This is HiDock Brand Day, and it's for everyone who believes in growing with curiosity, building with care, and communicating with heart.
Our North Star: You
Behind every innovation is a community. You.
Whether you backed us on Kickstarter, reviewed us on Product Hunt, or dropped feedback in a support chat, you helped shape this journey. You are our biggest growth driver and our inspiration.
As we kick off this 7-Day Brand Week, we're not just showcasing features — we're celebrating you. The professionals. The remote workers. The relentless note-takers who just want to live and work more freely.
So this week, dive into the HiDock experience.
Meet the team, hear the stories, try something new. Because every great brand starts with a great community.
Let's keep building the future of communication. Together.
