Recording

Ways to capture meetings

Meeting assistants should fit naturally into your workflow. Whether you prefer automatic recording, bot participation, or manual uploads, meeting capture should require minimal effort.

Meeting Bot

Joins calls automatically via calendar sync. Lowest friction for Zoom, Meet, and Teams.

Fireflies.ai✓Gong✓
Chrome Extension Recording

Captures the call right from a browser extension — no bot and no desktop app needed.

Mobile App

Upload Audio/Video

Drop an existing recording file to get a transcript and summary.

As Your Team Scales, Consider

Recording a meeting is only the first step. Over time, organizations often realize that the real value lies in how meeting knowledge is captured, shared, and reused—helping teams stay aligned long after the conversation ends.

AI Capabilities

What happens after the recording

Both go beyond summaries. Fireflies runs scheduled AI Skills and AskFred across meetings, with heavier work drawing on pooled credits. Gong runs automated agents when configured triggers fire; agents and briefs consume pooled Gong credits.

Fireflies.aiGong
Fireflies.aiFireflies.ai

Fireflies runs AI Skills on a schedule and answers questions across meetings with AskFred. Heavier AI draws down a one-time pooled credit grant; once it is spent, top-ups auto-renew and bill, so high-volume automation needs a look at the meter first.

GongGong

Gong's AI is built around the deal rather than the meeting. Brief types are user-defined templates assembled from conversation and web sections, automated agents run when configured triggers fire and consume pooled Gong credits, and smart trackers find concepts across calls using natural-language questions. AI Ask Anything answers questions about recorded calls, accounts and deals.

Integrations

The Best Integrations Do More Than Connect Apps

The number of integrations tells part of the story. The real value comes from how effectively meeting insights move between tools, workflows, and teams.

Decision Checklist

A quick gut-check before you commit

Fireflies.aiChoose Fireflies.ai if…
✓Your meetings run in many languages — Fireflies documents 100+ transcription languages against Gong’s more than 70
✓You need a browser extension that saves meeting audio. Fireflies saves extension recordings to your Notebook; Gong does not document browser meeting capture.
✓You need bot-free capture on Teams or Meet, or from a desktop app. Fireflies captures without a bot across platforms; Gong records Zoom natively without a bot and uses its bot on Teams and Meet.
GongChoose Gong if…
✓Forecasting is a board-level process for you, not a report — you want deal boards and a submitted forecast, not conversation analytics that mention risk
✓You need trigger-driven automated agents and accept a pooled Gong credit budget; Fireflies documents scheduled AI Skills.
✓You want per-call engagement stats for the call host on every plan; Fireflies does not publish an engagement analytics row.
Compare with MeetGeek

One More Comparison Before You Decide

FAQ

The questions procurement asks.

Fireflies publishes its prices — a free plan, then paid per-seat tiers billed monthly or annually. Gong does not publish prices at all: its pricing page is a quote request, and the model is a per-user core licence plus a platform fee, with applications priced on top. A like-for-like comparison is not possible from published material.
