Lindy vs Littlebird

Lindy

• Teams that work in Slack and want one shared AI teammate
• Recurring reports, briefs and follow-ups pulled from connected tools
• Gmail users who want labeled mail and pre-drafted replies

Littlebird

• People who want an assistant that already knows what they were working on
• Meeting notes without a recording bot in the call
• Scheduled briefings drawn from your own email, calendar and documents

Lindy

• There is no ongoing free plan: the $50 of free credits lasts 7 days, after which paid usage starts at $29.99 per user per month.
• Anyone who uses Lindy takes a paid seat, including people who @mention it in Slack; those joining through Slack get a one-time 7-day trial first.
• Monthly credits do not roll over, and Lindy pauses credit-using actions when the shared pool runs out.
• SSO, SCIM, audit logs and HIPAA compliance with a signed BAA are limited to Enterprise.

Littlebird

• Context is captured only by the Mac and Windows apps, and Windows is in beta. The iOS and Android apps are companions that need the desktop app.
• The memory it builds is encrypted but stored in the vendor's AWS cloud rather than only on your computer.
• The Basic plan has daily usage credits and limited meeting notes; image generation and usage packs start at Plus.
• Vendor pages disagree on Littlebird MCP: the pricing page lists it under Plus, while the MCP page's FAQ says Power and above.

Lindy

Shared teammate in Slack

A whole team shares one Lindy, summoned with an @mention in Slack channels and threads. It can also be reached by iMessage, by email and in the browser.

Integrations and MCP

Connects to Gmail, Slack, Notion, HubSpot and more than 1,000 other apps, and can use any MCP server to reach tools that have no built-in integration.

Meeting recording and notes

Records meetings and writes notes into a shared library with folders that teammates can query later. It also handles scheduling, prep and follow-up.

Scheduled routines

Recurring work such as a morning brief, a Monday report or a Friday nudge can be set up in a sentence and run on a schedule.

Skills and editable memory

Comes with more than 40 skills, including research, data analysis and slide decks. New skills can be saved for the whole team, and its memory lives in plain files you can edit.

Approvals

Actions with outside impact, such as sending an email or updating a ticket, wait for approval. Read-only lookups from approved sources do not.

Littlebird

Context from your screen

The desktop app reads the text and elements of your active window every few seconds and builds an encrypted index. The vendor says it takes no screenshots or video and logs no keystrokes.

Chat

Ask about anything you have seen or worked on and get answers and drafts grounded in that history. A Max mode handles longer multi-step reasoning, and chats can be shared or archived.

Meeting Notes

Transcribes and summarizes calls from your computer's audio with no bot joining, in 10+ languages, with action items and decisions. Basic is limited; Plus and above are unlimited.

Routines

A saved prompt that runs daily, weekly or monthly at a set time and sends back the result, such as a morning briefing or a weekly project recap.

Hover

A double-tap of the Option key opens Littlebird over whatever app you are in, so you can ask a question without switching windows. The vendor lists it as Mac-only for now.

Integrations and MCP

Hundreds of optional connectors, including Gmail, Google Calendar and Outlook, let it search and act in other tools. An MCP server exposes your memory to clients such as Claude and Cursor.
