Summary AI
Phone-first AI note taker that records and summarizes conversations
What is Summary AI?
Summary AI is a mobile and web app that records meetings, lectures, interviews and calls, transcribes them with speaker labels and writes a structured summary with key points and action items. A meeting assistant can also join Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls from a synced calendar. It is sold as a weekly or yearly in-app subscription after a single free recording.
Summary AI is a paid product with a free trial, starting at $8.99 per week, or $79.99 per year, as an in-app subscription. See every plan
Good for
- Recording in-person meetings, lectures and interviews on a phone
- Individuals who want unlimited transcription at one flat price
- Students and journalists who also need to transcribe uploaded files
Worth knowing
- There is no ongoing free plan: after 1 free recording, new summaries need a subscription. Existing summaries stay viewable.
- Subscriptions are sold only through the App Store or Google Play, and the pricing page lists no monthly plan.
- Paying $8.99 every week adds up to several times the $79.99 yearly plan over a full year.
- The US App Store listing shows other in-app price points too, including $17.99 and $29.99 monthly, so the in-app offer may differ.
