Fathom AI Notetaker

Fathom is a commercial AI meeting assistant and call recorder that captures video calls, including Zoom meetings, and generates searchable transcripts, highlights, shareable clips, summaries, and notes. It is provided as a web app with Zoom and other conferencing-platform integrations, and supports exporting meeting artifacts for sharing and archival.

Steno is an open-source, privacy-first desktop AI notepad and meeting notetaker for Windows and macOS, intended for confidential conversations. It records microphone and system audio, provides live or post-meeting transcription with speaker labels, generates summaries, and supports natural-language queries across individual notes or the meeting library. Its local mode uses on-device AI models; on Apple Silicon, live transcription uses Parakeet TDT v3 through MLX, while Whisper supports post-stop transcription in 99 languages. On macOS 14.4 and later, native Core Audio Tap captures both sides of virtual meetings without a virtual audio cable and with selectable microphone input. Steno can detect meeting start and end events, offer to start or summarize recordings, append recordings to existing notes, provide global recording shortcuts, and include user notes in generated summaries. Notes, transcripts, and summaries are stored as editable Markdown, with one-way synchronization to an Obsidian vault and report templates for structured outputs. The project states that local recordings, transcripts, and summaries remain on the device and have no cloud usage limits; users can alternatively configure hosted models through OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS Bedrock, or a custom API endpoint.

The service is positioned for enterprise and regulated teams and provides security and compliance controls; its site states that customer data is not used for AI training.

Cedric AI is an AI workplace and meeting assistant from a Swiss-based company in Zurich for Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams. It can join as a listener, moderator, or stand-in; present decks or workspace pages; answer live questions using connected tools and the web; keep time; take notes; record searchable transcripts, decisions, summaries, and action items; and attend meetings on a user's behalf based on a brief and behavior profile. Before a call, users can provide goals, topics to watch, questions, and boundaries. Cedric drafts follow-up work such as Gmail or Outlook emails, CRM updates, Notion documents, tasks, reports, and campaign content for review and approval, and connects to tools and channels including Slack, Discord, Telegram, email, calendars, HubSpot, Salesforce, CRM systems, GitHub, Notion, Sheets, and Drive. It uses shared workspace memory to answer questions, book meetings, update systems, and coordinate scheduled or event-triggered work. Outward actions show a preview for approval and are recorded in an activity log; the site says customer data is not sold or used to train models and that the service is GDPR compliant.
