Hi PH. I built MeetingSidekick for myself, and I still use it every week. The thing I could not get past with the tools I tried: to get notes, a bot has to join the call. It shows up on the attendee list, the host has to let it in, and half my meetings are two people at a table with no call to join at all. So this one never joins anything. You open a browser tab, press Start, and share the tab or the screen so it can hear the call audio. On a phone it just listens to the room. Zoom, Teams, Webex, a conference room, a coffee shop. If you can hear it, it transcribes it. Nothing installs and nobody else in the meeting sees a new participant. After the meeting you get a summary with decisions and action items, and a chatbot scoped to that one transcript, so you can ask "what did we agree about the deadline" instead of scrolling. Meetings stay in your account and stay searchable. Free plan is 2 hours a month with no card. Pro is $15/mo or $120/yr for 60 hours. There is also a 5-minute trial that needs no signup at all, if you just want to see what the transcript looks like. Two honest limits. The desktop system-audio capture needs Chrome or Edge. And recording people can require their consent depending on where you are, so the app makes you acknowledge that before it will start. Happy to answer anything, including how the no-bot capture actually works.
