Fireflies.ai

Meeting bot that records, transcribes, and pushes notes into your stack.

What it is

Fireflies joins your meetings as a bot, captures and transcribes them, and routes summaries and action items into Slack, Notion, HubSpot, and 50+ other tools.

Notes from using it

Fireflies' real edge isn't summary quality — Granola wins that. It's the integration breadth and cross-platform support. If you need an AI meeting tool that works on Zoom, Meet, Teams, and Webex, pushes summaries into Slack/Notion/HubSpot, and runs on every OS your team uses, Fireflies is the obvious choice.

The meeting bot model is the cost. Sales prospects, board members, sensitive conversations — many people instinctively quiet down or watch what they say when a logo-bearing bot is in the room. That's a tax on the conversation that Granola's local-capture model avoids entirely.

The Pro tier at $19/mo is competitively priced and includes most of what teams actually need. Larger orgs hit the wall around custom data retention and SOC 2 — Fireflies has those, but they require enterprise contracts. The free tier is generous enough to evaluate seriously before committing.

Where it shines

  • Wide platform support — Zoom, Meet, Teams, Webex.
  • Generous free tier.

Where it falls down

  • Bot-in-the-room is awkward for sensitive meetings.
  • Summary quality trails Granola.
