About Mihi
Mihi (Hieu) founded NoteMeeting in 2024 after 6+ years leading SEO and growth at large Vietnamese e-commerce, SaaS, and media sites. Frustrated with how poorly Vietnamese language was handled in mainstream meeting tools, he started building a Chrome extension that ran a Vietnamese-tuned speech model directly in Google Meet — and shipped it after friends kept asking for access.
On this blog, Mihi writes about Vietnamese speech technology, AI meeting notes, productivity for online teams, and SEO/growth for Vietnamese teams. Topics span from technical (WER, real-time STT, schema markup) to applied (meeting minutes templates, action items, time management).
