Bluedot

Bluedot records meetings without adding a bot to the call. It started as a Chrome extension and now also runs as desktop apps for Mac and Windows and as iOS and Android apps, which can capture in-person conversations. It transcribes in more than 100 languages and produces summaries with decisions and action items. It can also draft follow-up emails and show speaker analytics such as talk time. It suits external-meeting-heavy roles like sales, recruiting and consulting, where an obvious notetaker bot can feel intrusive. Pricing is per recording user, and members who don't record are free. The Free plan is capped at five meetings for the life of the account. Basic covers unlimited audio-only meetings up to an hour each. Pro adds video, unlimited length, custom templates and imports. Business adds CRM and ATS integrations, SSO, SCIM and custom data retention. Companies can also request a flat-rate plan. Every plan connects to Slack, Notion, Zapier and Make. Paid plans add webhooks and an MCP server, and the vendor offers Claude and ChatGPT connectors. Bluedot says it holds a SOC 2 Type II report, encrypts data with AES-256, hosts on AWS with EU data residency, and does not train AI models on customer data. The main limitations are the small lifetime free allowance, an interface some reviewers find overwhelming, and summaries that can come out loosely structured unless you set up templates. Cancelling also removes access to recordings.
