Fellow

What is Fellow?

Fellow is an AI meeting assistant that records, transcribes and summarises meetings for teams.

It works by connecting to your calendar. Fellow can send a bot to Zoom, Google Meet or Microsoft Teams calls, or record without a bot through its desktop and mobile apps. After the meeting it produces a summary, action items and a searchable recording.

Key Features

Fellow’s key features are AI meeting summaries with action items, recording with or without a bot, the Ask Fellow chatbot, pre-meeting briefs, shared agendas, more than 50 integrations and an MCP server and API.

• AI summaries: Produces notes, decisions and action items after each meeting, with a transcript and a searchable recording.
• Bot recording: Sends a notetaker to Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls based on your calendar, so recording starts without anyone pressing a button.
• Botless recording: Captures audio through the desktop and mobile apps with no bot in the call. This covers in-person meetings and other platforms such as Slack Huddles and Webex.
• Pause and resume: Lets you pause a recording mid-meeting, and Fellow says paused segments are removed from the transcript entirely.
• Ask Fellow: Answers questions from your past meetings in a chat window, so you can find a decision without replaying a recording.
• Pre-meeting briefs: Prepares context before a call starts, drawing on earlier meetings with the same people.
• Agendas and templates: Attaches a shared agenda to each calendar event, with templates that Business plans can set for the whole organisation.
• MCP server and API: Lets AI agents and other tools read meeting data. Fellow lists an official Claude connector, and API access starts on the Team plan.

Pros

Fellow’s main advantages are documented security and compliance, a commitment not to train AI on customer data on any plan, optional bot-free recording, more than 50 integrations and a $7 entry price.

• Strong security: Fellow lists SOC 2 Type II certification, GDPR and CCPA compliance and HIPAA eligibility with a Business Associate Agreement.
• No training on your data: Fellow states that it never uses meeting data to train AI models and that its AI providers do not either, on every plan including Free.
• Bot optional: Desktop and mobile apps record without a visible bot, which avoids a common objection from clients and guests.
• Wide integrations: More than 50 connected apps include Slack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Notion, Asana, Jira, Linear, ClickUp and Zapier.
• Low paid entry price: The Team plan costs $7 per user a month on annual billing, which is low for a recorder with automations and API access.
• Detailed data controls: Fellow describes a zero-day retention option, configurable retention policies, role-based access and exportable audit logs for regulated teams.
• Cross-platform apps: Fellow has apps for macOS, Windows, iOS and Android plus a Chrome extension.

Cons

Fellow’s main drawbacks are tight allowances and plan gating: Free gives five lifetime AI notes per user, Team caps notes at ten a month, and CRM integration and governance controls need higher tiers.

• Tiny free allowance: The Free plan gives five AI notes and five AI recordings per user for life, not per month, so it works only as a short test.
• Team plan cap: Team allows ten AI notes per user each month, which a person in two or three meetings a week will use up.
• Seat limits: Free stops at 5 seats, Team at 20 and Business at 50, so a growing company is pushed up a tier by headcount alone.
• Higher monthly prices: Monthly billing costs $11 against $7 on Team and $23 against $15 on Business, more than 50% above the annual rate.
• CRM needs Business: Advanced Salesforce and HubSpot integration and unlimited AI notes start on the Business plan at $15 per user a month.
• Governance needs Enterprise: Transcript redaction, user provisioning and advanced recording permissions are on Enterprise at $25 per user a month, annual only, with a ten-user minimum.

Who is Using Fellow?

• Managers: Run one-to-ones and team meetings with shared agendas.
• Sales teams: Send call recaps to Salesforce or HubSpot.
• Regulated firms: Finance, healthcare and legal teams needing controls.
• Project teams: Push action items to Asana or Jira.

Pricing

Fellow has a free plan, and paid plans start at $7 per user per month on annual billing (official prices, October 2026).

Disclaimer: Pricing can change. Check the official Fellow website.

What Makes Fellow Unique?

Fellow stands out for pairing AI notes with the meeting agenda and for its governance controls. Recording permissions, redaction and retention settings are aimed at companies that cannot use a consumer note-taker.

Compatibilities and Integrations

• Meetings: Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams.
• Apps: macOS, Windows, iOS, Android and a Chrome extension.
• Integrations: Slack, Salesforce, HubSpot, Notion, Asana, Jira and Zapier.
• Developers: API and MCP server.

How We Rated It

Summary

Fellow is a strong choice for teams that want AI meeting notes with business-grade security. The Free plan is only a short test, and Team caps notes at ten a month, so most active teams will need Business. Tell participants when you record.
