We researched Fireflies.ai's official pricing, plan terms, product pages and help documentation. We haven't used Fireflies.ai ourselves, so this is a research-based review, not a hands-on test.

Who it’s best for

  • Teams with many video calls who want searchable notes.
  • Sales and customer teams that review calls.
  • People who want transcripts in many languages.

Who should skip it

  • Probably not the best fit if you rarely have meetings.

The main alternative: Notion

Notion is a good alternative if your team already works in Notion. Its AI meeting notes transcribe and summarize meetings and identify speakers, with notes saved alongside your other docs.

What it costs: Free plan; Plus $10/seat/mo billed yearly, checked October 26, 2026

Pick Fireflies.ai if you…

  • have frequent meetings and want notes automatically.

Pick Notion if you…

Our take

Fireflies.ai is a capable meeting notetaker with broad platform support, many languages and a free plan. If your team lives in Notion, its built-in AI meeting notes may be enough.
