Before purchase, rehearse a spoken consent script and identify forbidden settings. During a short software-only pilot, track consent refusals, missed or wrong memories, transcript corrections, deletion and export behavior, third-party processing, minutes consumed, retrieval usefulness, social friction, and whether notes save enough time to justify hardware and subscription costs.
