Comparison Table
Select products using the Add To Compare buttons above.
How to Choose
Decide bot or bot-free
Most assistants send a visible bot into the call, which is easy to set up and records reliably. Bot-free tools such as Granola and Krisp capture audio from your own device instead, which suits sensitive or informal calls. Pick the style your participants will be comfortable with.
Match the tool to the meeting type
Sales and customer teams benefit from call scoring and coaching analytics, as in Avoma. Managers running recurring one-to-ones may prefer agendas and action tracking, as in Fellow. Individuals who just want a free transcript are well served by Fathom or Otter.ai.
Check the free plan limits
Free plans differ a lot: some give unlimited recording but cap AI summaries, others cap minutes, meetings or how far back you can search. Read the limits and try a few real meetings before paying.
Confirm platform and device coverage
Make sure the tool joins the platforms you actually use, such as Zoom, Google Meet, Teams or Webex. If you also hold in-person meetings, look for a mobile app or on-device capture.
Look at integrations and follow-up
The value of a summary is in what happens next. Check for links to your CRM, Slack, Notion or task tools, and whether action items can be pushed there automatically.
Get consent and set sharing rules
Tell participants when a meeting is being recorded and follow your local consent rules. Review each tool's default sharing, retention and admin settings before rolling it out to a team.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is an AI meeting assistant?
It is software that records or listens to your meetings, turns the audio into a transcript and writes a summary with action items. Some join as a visible bot, while others capture audio from your device.
Which AI meeting assistant has the best free plan?
Fathom offers unlimited recording and transcription for free, with a cap on its advanced AI features. Fireflies.ai also offers unlimited transcription free, and Otter.ai gives 300 minutes a month. Check each free plan's limits against how many meetings you hold.
Can I take notes without a bot joining the call?
Yes. Granola and Krisp capture audio through your computer rather than a bot, and Fathom has a bot-free option in beta. This works on any platform but usually needs a desktop app.
Which tool is best for sales calls?
Avoma is built for sales and customer-facing teams, with call scoring, talk-time analytics and coaching features. Fathom's Business plan adds deal views and AI scorecards, and Fireflies.ai offers conversation intelligence on its Business plan.
Do I need to tell people I am recording?
In many places you do, and some require every participant's consent. Announce the recording at the start, use the tool's notification features and check the rules that apply where you and your participants are based.
