What our research says

Fireflies.ai

Unlimited transcription on the free tier is the hook and it is genuinely unlimited — the meter sits on storage and AI credits, which is where any team of real size ends up on a paid seat.

Pros

  • Transcription minutes are unlimited on every tier, including Free
  • API access is not paywalled — it starts on the free plan
  • Pro at $10/seat undercuts most rival meeting assistants
  • Storage becomes unlimited from the $19 Business tier

Cons

  • Monthly billing is about 1.8x the annual rate on Pro and 1.5x on Business
  • AI credits, not transcription, are the real ration — 20 a month on both Free and Pro
  • Free storage is 400 minutes for the entire team, not per person
  • Enterprise is annual-only at $39/seat

Jamy

The live-translation minutes are what separate this from the crowded meeting-notes field — it is aimed at calls where not everyone shares a language. The free tier is generous enough to test properly. The cost of that focus is that translation is metered separately from transcription until you reach the top plan.

Pros

  • Joins Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams directly
  • Transcription with speaker labels across more than 100 languages
  • Free tier includes 300 transcription minutes a month
  • API keys and webhooks are available on the $29.99 plan

Cons

  • Live translation is metered separately and only uncapped on the top tier
  • The site never names an operating company or country, and the privacy notice does not either
  • API access is gated to the most expensive plan
