Why people switch to ShadowEars

The things that matter when your calls hold everything you and your team said.

Records calls and in person

Catch Zoom, Meet, and Teams from the desktop app or browser — and the in-person conversations too. Projects are real, private spaces you invite people into.

Works with Claude and ChatGPT

Connect the assistant you already talk to. Claude or ChatGPT opens your meetings directly — not some closed, built-in AI you have to learn.

A memory your assistant can open

Claude or ChatGPT can search, recall, and act on past calls — answering as if it had been sitting in every one.

Works everywhere you meet

Desktop for Mac and Windows, plus iOS, Android, and the browser. Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or any call with audio.

No bots in the call

Nothing joins your meeting as a stranger on the invite. ShadowEars records quietly in the background, so your call stays your call.

Pay only for what you use

A free plan with 500 minutes a month, then simple plans billed by the minute — no paying for empty seats.

What to look for in a Fireflies.ai alternative

Not every notetaker works the same way. Before you switch, make sure it does the things that actually save you time later.
