What is Fireflies.ai?

Fireflies.ai is an AI notetaker. It sends a bot, called Fred, into your Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams or Webex calls, records the conversation and turns it into a speaker-labelled transcript and a summary with key topics and action items. It also works on uploaded audio and video files and on in-person meetings recorded through its desktop or mobile app.

It is made by Fireflies.AI Corp., co-founded by Krish Ramineni (CEO) and Sam Udotong (CTO). The problem it solves is simple: someone always has to take notes, and those notes are usually incomplete and hard to find later. Fireflies captures everything and makes months of calls searchable down to the sentence and timestamp.

What sets it apart is what happens after the call. AskFred, its built-in assistant, answers questions about your past meetings. Summaries can be pushed into CRMs such as HubSpot and Salesforce, and into Slack and other tools. On Business, conversation intelligence adds talk-time, sentiment and topic tracking, aimed at sales and customer teams.

Key features

• Notetaker bot for every call

  Fred joins meetings on Zoom, Google Meet, Teams, Webex and 10+ other apps, either automatically from your calendar or when you invite fred@fireflies.ai. You can set rules so it only joins certain meetings. It frees everyone on the call from note-taking.

• Transcripts in 100+ languages

  Transcripts are speaker-labelled and time-stamped. English is the main language, with Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian supported and 100+ others in beta. Business adds Multi-language Mode for calls that switch languages mid-conversation. You can also edit the transcript afterwards to fix names or terms.

• AI summaries and action items

  After each call you get notes with key topics, action items and custom sections, with 100+ templates for different industries. Free plans get limited summaries; paid plans get unlimited ones. It means a short recap goes out instead of a recording nobody watches.

• AskFred and meeting search

  Search every meeting for a phrase or topic, or ask AskFred a question such as what a client said about budget. The answer comes with the source. This is the feature that makes a large archive of calls actually useful.

• Video recording and downloads

  From Pro, Fireflies records meeting video (720p on Pro and Business, 1080p on Enterprise) and lets you download transcripts, summaries and recordings. Free users can read transcripts but cannot download or capture video, which is the main reason most people upgrade.

• Record without a bot

  The Chrome extension records Google Meet without Fred appearing as a guest. The desktop app records calls and Slack huddles from your computer, and the mobile app records in-person meetings. Handy when a visible bot would feel awkward.

• Conversation intelligence

  Business plans add speaker talk-time, sentiment, question detection and topic trackers, plus team analytics for admins. Sales managers can coach reps or spot which topics come up most, without listening to hours of recordings themselves, and admins get team-wide insights.

• Integrations and API

  Fireflies connects to 50+ apps, including HubSpot, Salesforce, Slack, Dropbox and dialers such as Aircall and RingCentral, and offers an API on every plan with plan-based rate limits. Meeting data can land where your team already works.

• AI Skills and assistants

  AI credits power extras such as AI Skills that pull out specific details (a candidate scorecard, a deal budget), CRM autofill, the Personal Assistant's daily digest and meeting prep, and Voice Agents. These run on a small credit allowance, so heavy use costs extra.

Fireflies.ai pricing explained

Every teammate in your workspace counts as a paid seat.

Fireflies charges per seat: every teammate added to your workspace is billed at the plan price. People who only receive a meeting recap link are free. Billed monthly, Pro is $18 a seat, Business $29 and Enterprise $39 (Enterprise is annual only). Annual billing brings Pro to $10 and Business to $19, which Fireflies describes as saving up to 44%. Teams over 50 members can ask for a volume discount.

The Free plan has no time limit. It includes 400 minutes of total meeting storage (not per month), limited AI summaries and 20 AI credits. Paid plans have no monthly limit on bot or Chrome-extension transcription, but uploads, API imports and dialer calls are capped at 3,000 minutes per user per source each month, with overage at $0.01 a minute. Recording length is capped per meeting: 2 hours on Free and Pro, 3 on Business, 4 on Enterprise.

AI credits are a separate, small allowance (20 on Free and Pro, 30 on Business, 50 on Enterprise) pooled across the team. They cover AI Skills, CRM autofill and assistants, not transcription. More can be bought as a monthly add-on, from $5 for 50 credits, and purchased credits don't roll over. New users can try Business free for 7 days, but a card is required and billing starts automatically. Fireflies' help centre says it does not refund subscriptions or AI credit purchases; cancelling moves you to Free at the end of the billing period.

Per seat, billed monthly, in US dollars. Yearly billing drops Pro to $10 and Business to $19 a seat.
