Our take
Pick Fireflies.ai if people who will stay on Free at $0 while they open a first All Tasks list, then Pro at $10/seat/month annual when they need video + integrations — not Business $19 annual first unless they need team analytics and private channels. Pick Otter.ai if sales and CS teams who want notes without a dedicated notetaker. Skip Otter.ai if people who only need noise cancel (Krisp) or a self-hosted
meeting transcription and notes app
