When there are dozens of meetings going on every week, Fireflies helps you line them all up and keep them organized. The range of available AI features makes it easy to sort your meetings by topic, project, or team, surfacing the information you need when you need it.

The app will transcribe everything everyone says in the meeting, assigning it to the appropriate speaker once you identify who’s who in the app. When the meeting is over, it’ll start working its magic on the transcription:

  • It isolates information such as dates and times, metrics mentioned, tasks, and questions, so you filter them later.
  • It runs sentiment analysis, helping identify the positive, negative, and neutral parts of the meeting.
  • It offers a list of everyone who spoke, including a word-per-minute statistic and percentage talked in relationship to others.
  • It offers a list of topics tracked—and you can add your own, so Fireflies can keep doing its sorting magic.

When you need this information in your other apps, Fireflies offers a great range of native integrations with giants like HubSpot or Salesforce for storing all lead data, Slack for team chat, and Dropbox to keep your data stored for the long haul. If your favorite app isn’t listed, you can integrate Fireflies with Zapier, helping you connect Fireflies to thousands of other apps. Here are a couple of examples.

Need to share critical information with your team? You can create soundbites, clipping important parts of meetings into shareable moments. People can come by the meeting page to leave their comments and reactions, so it’s easy to see how everyone’s keeping up. And if you have an internal knowledge base, you can embed meetings or soundbites, helping you keep a thorough single source of truth.

Fireflies price: Free plan available, with a total of 800 minutes of meeting storage; paid plans start at $18/user/month.
