Use tool ↗About Wudpecker
Wudpecker sends a notetaker bot into Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls, transcribes them in 39 languages, and returns notes shaped by a template you choose rather than one fixed summary format. Mac and Windows desktop apps and an iOS and Android app record without a bot, including in-person meetings, and that recording is not counted against the plan. An Ask layer answers questions about a specific recording, a custom vocabulary helps with product names, and paid plans push notes into Notion, Slack and HubSpot. The vendor is the Finnish company Wudpecker Oy, and billing counts bot meetings per month rather than minutes.

Pros & cons of Wudpecker
Counting meetings rather than minutes makes the bill easy to reason about, and template-driven notes beat a generic summary when every call has the same shape. The catch is the ceiling: 100 bot-recorded meetings a month on the top self-serve plan, no published API, and a hard length cap on any single recording.
Pros
- Notes follow a template you pick, not one fixed summary shape
- Transcription across dozens of languages with a custom vocabulary list
- EU company and EU servers, stated plainly on the site
- Free tier records 10 meetings a month rather than offering a short trial
Cons
- Bot meetings are capped per month rather than drawn from a minute pool, so a short call costs the same as a long one
- No documented public API
- Notion, Slack and HubSpot integrations are paid-tier only
Best for
- Sales, research or recruiting teams running the same call format repeatedly
- Teams that need EU data residency for meeting recordings
- Anyone who wants notes filed straight into Notion, Slack or HubSpot
Not for
- Teams that need the notetaker bot in more than 100 meetings a month
- Developers wanting to pull transcripts programmatically
Watch out: A single recording is cut off at 2 hours 15 minutes, so all-day workshops and long training sessions will not be captured end to end.
