Bot in the call vs no bot
Fireflies.ai adds an assistant (“Fred”) as a meeting participant to capture the audio. That gives it wide reach — multiple platforms, in-person recording via the app, imported audio — but the bot shows up in the participant list and someone has to admit it.
Transcriba transcribes video meetings in Google Meet and Microsoft Teams without joining the call. Nothing to admit, nothing anyone sees. In exchange, it works only on those two platforms, in desktop Chrome.
Where Transcriba wins
Client meetings. A “Fred” recording the first call with a prospect prompts the awkward question. Without a bot, the conversation stays normal.
Price and history. R$39/mo on Copilot. History search across everything on any plan, including the free one.
Where Fireflies wins
Case coverage: imported audio, in-person meetings via mobile, Zoom, and a large ecosystem of integrations (CRM, automation, conferencing). Transcriba is leaner and focused on the video call in Meet and Teams.
