Our take
COVID-19 has seen a huge increase in remote business meetings, resulting in communication increasingly taking place across digital platforms. This has reduced the effectiveness of traditional personal assistants, resulting in a demand for a digital alternative.
Fireflies provides an AI assistant for digital business meetings that takes notes, transcribes and analyzes web-conference meetings. The software can then use this recorded data to help users automate post-meeting tasks such as data entry and task creation.
There are a number of competing transcription solutions operating in this space, for example Reason8, Voicea and Zoom AI Assistant, which was released in 2023. Fireflies sets itself apart with its generous free plan and, consequently, is poised for growth as the interest in videoconferencing continues to rise coupled with series A funding that has been invested into expanding its platform.
