Fathom

Bot or bot-free capture

Record with a meeting bot that joins the call, or capture from the desktop app with nothing added to the meeting. Bot-free capture is in beta and currently works on Mac only.

AI summaries and action items

A summary is ready when the call ends. Free accounts get advanced summary templates on their first 5 calls each month; paid plans remove the cap and add AI action items.

Ask Fathom

Ask questions about a single call or across the calls in your account and get answers drawn from the transcripts. Use is limited on the Free plan.

Clips and playlists

Cut highlights out of a recording and group them into playlists to share with people who missed the meeting. Included on every plan.

CRM sync

Sends call notes to HubSpot, Salesforce or Close. The Business plan adds CRM field sync, a deal view, and coaching metrics with AI scorecards.

Team workspace

Team plans add global search across everyone's calls, comments, folders and keyword alerts that flag when chosen terms come up.

MeetGeek

Bot or bot-free recording

A bot can join Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls. The desktop app and Chrome extension record without a bot, and the mobile app captures in-person meetings.

Transcription in 100+ languages

Transcribes with automatic language detection and speaker recognition. Monthly transcription is capped at 3 hours on Basic and 20 hours on Pro, and unlimited from Business.

AI summaries and next steps

Every meeting gets a summary, a list of action items and a topics timeline. Custom summary templates and automatic meeting-type detection start on Pro.

AI Chat

Ask questions and get answers drawn from past meetings. It is included on the free plan; Pro adds chat with tools and Business makes that unlimited.

Workflows and AI agents

From Pro, agents and workflows act on meeting content, for example updating a CRM or posting to Slack, and connect to Zapier, Make and n8n.

Meeting analytics

Scores each meeting and reports sentiment and how much each participant spoke. Analytics across many meetings need Pro, and team-wide analytics need Business.
