Fireflies.ai

Records and summarises meetings.

What it is

Fireflies joins meetings, records and transcribes them, then produces summaries and action items searchable across your history. Because it joins as a participant it works across whichever conferencing tool the other side chose, and the archive becomes searchable across months. That also means a bot appears in the room, which some clients object to.

  • You run long sessions — recordings are capped at 2 hours on Free and Pro, 3 on Business and 4 on Enterprise
