Best AI Meeting Notetakers

Claap is the strongest option here for sales teams who need call capture across phone, in-person, and video in one place, with direct CRM push to HubSpot or Salesforce, but Windows teams are locked out by the Mac-only desktop requirement.

• +Claap captures phone calls and in-person conversations, not just online meetings.
• +The free Basic plan includes an API with unlimited usage.
• −The free plan is capped at 300 minutes of recording in total, not renewed monthly.

• +The free plan never expires and gives 5 meetings for the life of the account.
• +Bluedot only charges for users who actually record a meeting, not every seat on the account.
• −The free plan is capped at 5 meetings for the life of the account, not renewed monthly.

Granola suits individuals who want clean notes without a bot in the room and are willing to trade ecosystem maturity for simplicity, though its short track record and unverified mobile app performance make it a riskier choice than older tools like Otter.ai or Fireflies.

• +Granola never adds a bot to your call; it records straight from your computer's own microphone and meeting audio.
• +AI chat within and across meetings, plus customized note templates, are included from the free Basic plan.
• −The free Basic plan only keeps 30 days of meeting history; viewing anything older requires upgrading to Business.

Jamie is the strongest privacy choice here, processing audio locally within EU infrastructure and explicitly not training on customer data, but the 30-minute cap on the free plan limits usefulness and its narrow focus means teams wanting deep analytics or wide integrations should look elsewhere.

• +The free plan works forever and includes in-person meeting capture in more than 80 languages.
• +Jamie runs on your device, so no bot joins the call for online or in-person meetings.
• −The free plan allows only 10 AI notes a month, and Plus, the cheapest paid plan, raises that to just 20.

Choose Supernormal over tools like Fireflies or Tactiq if your meetings produce deliverables like proposals or briefs rather than just action items, but the absence of a mobile app and the Windows 11 requirement will eliminate it for many teams.

• +The Free plan is free forever and includes the bot-free meeting notetaker with no card required.
• +Supernormal never joins meetings as a visible bot; it captures audio directly from your computer.
• −There is no video or audio recording, only live notes and a transcript.

• +The free plan includes unlimited recordings and transcriptions, plus clips, playlists and search across calls, at no cost.
• +A beta bot-free recording mode on Mac works alongside the standard bot that joins Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams.
• −In-person meetings are not captured; only Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls are recorded.

Otter is one of the more proven options for straightforward transcription accuracy, with strong user review backing on G2 and Capterra, but its visible bot joining calls is a drawback compared to bot-free alternatives like Granola or Bluedot, and accuracy drops in noisy environments.

• +The free Basic plan runs forever and includes live transcription and AI Chat across meetings.
• +Meetings can be captured with a bot that auto-joins Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams, or without one through desktop and mobile apps, including in-person conversations.
• −Recordings and transcripts are automatically de-identified and used to train Otter's models, with no opt-out.

Tactiq is worth considering over Read AI or Otter if your team lives in Chrome and wants reusable post-meeting automations pushing to Slack or Notion, but the Chrome-only extension requirement and lack of mobile app make it a poor fit for mixed-device or mobile-heavy teams.

• +The Free plan is free forever for one user, with no credit card required.
• +Tactiq records without a meeting bot, joining as a browser extension or native Mac app instead.
• −AI credits stay capped at 10 a month on the Pro plan; they only become unlimited from the Team plan up.

Fellow is the clearest choice for regulated industries given its simultaneous SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, and GDPR compliance, which no other tool in this list matches, though that security depth may feel unnecessary and the onboarding demanding for small teams without compliance requirements.

• +Botless Recording captures, transcribes and summarizes meetings without a bot joining the call, working across Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Zoom and Slack huddles.
• +Fellow's AI is never trained on your data.
• −The free plan gives only 5 AI notes and 5 AI recordings for the life of the account, not a monthly allowance.

MeetGeek offers more recording flexibility than most tools at this price, supporting bot and no-bot capture plus old recording uploads, but the absence of any G2 or Capterra listing despite large user claims makes independent verification impossible before buying.

• +No-bot Recording captures Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls through a Chrome extension or desktop recorder, included on the free Basic plan.
• +AI Chat and search across all meetings is included from the free Basic plan.
• −MeetGeek has no capture method for in-person meetings today; its Wave hardware device is announced but not yet released.

• +Startup, the cheapest paid plan, includes unlimited real-time transcription, unlimited AI summary notes and unlimited recording storage.
• +Bot-less native recording is available alongside the standard meeting bot.
• −There is no free plan that records meetings, only a 14-day trial.

Sembly is differentiated by task extraction that captures owners, deadlines, and dependencies rather than a flat action item list, and it targets professional services teams needing client-ready documents from meetings, but it has no free plan and its document generation feature has not been independently verified.

• +Sembly is SOC 2 Type II certified.
• +Meetings can be captured in person too, through the mobile app's audio recorder or by uploading MP3, WAV or MP4 files.
• −There is no free plan, only a Free Trial limited to 1 meeting hour total.
