The verdict

Fireflies.ai wins, 9.1 to 8.5

Fellow's $11 a month starting price undercuts Fireflies' $18, but its API is locked to the Business plan, while Fireflies includes API access from its free plan. Fireflies also lets you cut and share clips, a feature Fellow's plans do not offer. AI usage stays capped on the cheapest paid plan for both tools rather than unlimited.

Pick Fellow.ai if you want a lower starting price for meeting notes.

Pick Fireflies.ai if you want clips included and API from the free plan.
