MeetGeek Review 2026: AI Meeting Notes With Bot and Bot-Free Recording

MeetGeek is an AI meeting assistant that records, transcribes and summarizes Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls — and unlike most rivals, it lets you choose how each meeting is captured: a visible meeting bot, a Chrome extension, a desktop recorder, or a mobile app for in-person conversations. Its free Basic plan covers 3 hours of transcription a month, and paid plans start at $15.99 per user per month on monthly billing, with yearly billing saving up to 40%.

Bottom line: MeetGeek suits teams that want one meeting memory across every capture style, plus AI agents and workflow automation that push summaries and action items into the tools they already use. The limits that matter are hours and retention: the free plan keeps transcripts for only 3 months and audio for 1 month, and Pro caps transcription at 20 hours a month, so heavy meeting schedules push you to Business at $27 per user per month for unlimited transcription.

What it is

MeetGeek joins or captures your video calls and turns them into searchable meeting records: a transcript with automatic speaker recognition, an AI summary for every meeting, detected action items (which it calls AI Next Steps), a topics timeline and marked highlights. It transcribes in more than 100 languages with automatic language detection, and an AI Chat can search and answer questions across all of your meetings.

The differentiator is capture flexibility. The default Meeting Agent joins Zoom, Meet and Teams calls as a visible participant, but the Chrome extension and desktop recorder capture the same platforms with no bot in the participant list, the mobile apps handle in-person meetings, and you can upload existing audio or video files for transcription. Newer additions include a Copilot Mode for talking to MeetGeek during a call, plus AI Agents and workflows that act on meeting content after the call ends.

Key features

Four ways to record. Bot agent, Chrome extension, desktop recorder and mobile apps, plus uploads of your own audio or video — mix bot and bot-free capture by meeting type.
AI summaries and next steps. A summary for every meeting, automatic action-item detection, a topics timeline, AI highlights and shareable clips.
AI Chat and search across meetings. Ask questions across your whole meeting history; API and MCP access (for Claude and ChatGPT) are listed even on the free plan.
Meeting analytics. Per-meeting metrics with sentiment and engagement analysis; higher tiers add objection and competitor detection, win/loss signals and automatic CRM updates.
Automation from Pro. Zapier, Make and n8n connections, unlimited integrations, meeting templates with automatic meeting-type detection, downloads and exports, and AI follow-up emails.

Pricing

Pricing is from MeetGeek’s own pricing page, per user per month in USD on monthly billing; yearly billing saves up to 40%, and startups, nonprofits and educational institutions can request 30% off. The Basic plan is free forever: 3 hours of transcription a month, 3 months of transcript storage, 1 month of audio storage, AI summaries, meeting analytics, AI Chat and search, and API/MCP access. Pro is $15.99: 20 hours of transcription a month, 1 year of transcript storage, 6 months of audio storage, plus Zapier/Make/n8n, unlimited integrations, meeting templates, downloads and exports. Business is $27: unlimited transcription and transcript storage, 12 months of video storage, HD video recording, team spaces, team analytics, unlimited AI Agents and workflows, and custom branding. Enterprise is custom-priced and adds SSO and SCIM, zero or custom data retention, on-premise storage and a dedicated account manager. Per-meeting recording limits rise by tier, from 2 hours on Basic and Pro to 4 hours on Enterprise.

Who it’s for

Sales, recruiting and customer teams that live on Zoom, Meet or Teams calls and want summaries, action items and CRM updates without manual note-taking.
Teams that mix meeting types — client calls where a bot is fine, sensitive calls where bot-free capture is better, and in-person meetings captured on mobile.
Operations-minded teams that will actually wire meeting output into Zapier, Make, n8n or their CRM, where MeetGeek’s automation tiers earn their price.

It is more machinery than a solo user with two calls a week needs — a simpler free notetaker will feel lighter until the archive and automation start to matter.

What to watch out for

Free-plan retention is short. Three hours of transcription a month is workable for a trial, but transcripts disappear after 3 months and audio after 1 month on Basic, so it is not a free archive.
Pro’s 20-hour cap. Twenty hours a month sounds generous until a team runs daily standups plus client calls; unlimited transcription requires Business at $27 per user per month.
Team features sit high. HD video recording, team spaces, team analytics and unlimited AI Agents are Business features, and SSO/SCIM, custom retention and on-premise storage are Enterprise-only.
Recording consent still applies. Whether the bot joins visibly or you record bot-free, tell attendees the meeting is being recorded and follow your jurisdiction’s consent rules.

Does MeetGeek need a bot to join my meetings?

No. The Meeting Agent bot is the default for Zoom, Google Meet and Teams, but the Chrome extension and desktop recorder capture those platforms without a bot in the participant list, the mobile apps record in-person meetings, and you can upload existing recordings for transcription.
