Read on as we explore each update in detail.

 Unlimited free transcriptions

Fireflies now provides unlimited, accurate meeting transcripts in 60+ languages for free. 

All you need to do is:

  • Record the meeting directly with our Google Chrome extension, or
  • Enable Share meeting recap with all participants in the Email settings.

We also offer free transcripts for all the in-person meetings recorded using the Fireflies’ Android/iOS mobile app.

Share meeting recordings via emails

Collaboration just got easier. 

In addition to our standard sharing capabilities, we've introduced an enhanced feature that lets you share meeting recordings and transcripts with individual Fireflies users, just like you share Google Docs.

Open the meeting from your Fireflies Notebook.

The added email address user can only view the meeting recording. They cannot share, download, create Soundbites, or edit the transcript.

You can find the meetings shared with you in the #Shared With Me section in Fireflies Notebook.

Email recaps now have meeting summaries

If you are a Fireflies user, you must be familiar with the recap email you receive after every meeting.

This email recap now also includes a summary of your conversation to highlight critical details like decisions, action items, and key topics covered.

By default, the shared email will contain the Meeting Overview summary—the meeting gist in a few paragraphs. If needed, you can replace it with any of the other Super Summaries:

  • Action Items: The list of conversation bits that require further action.
  • Meeting Outline: An outline of the meeting with time stamps.
  • Meeting Notes: A bullet point list of main points discussed during the meeting.

If you don’t want to share anything besides the direct link, disable this by unchecking the Include meeting summary in the shared email recap checkbox under Email Settings.

Customize the meeting language of each meeting

With Fireflies, you can set the transcription language separately for each meeting before it starts. This means, if you have an Arabic meeting to transcribe, you can easily set just that meeting's language to Arabic before it begins. No need to change your global language settings back and forth.

To do this, log into your Fireflies account to find all your scheduled meetings on the dashboard. 

Against each meeting, spot the language drop menu. Select the language of your choice from it, and done!

The default language will remain the same as your preferred Meeting language in the Meeting settings.

Automatically identify and generate tasks on your project management tools based on AI Apps’ output

You can now integrate the AI Apps with your project management tools like Monday.com, Trello, ClickUp, or Asana to automate task creation. 

Follow the same process as connecting a CRM tool, and once your project management tool opens up, select the necessary fields for the integration. That’s it. 

When the app generates an output, relevant tasks will be automatically created on your connected project management tool.

In addition to this, we also support Zapier integrations that allow you to push the output of AI Apps to the third-party apps of your choice.

Note: More direct AI Apps integrations are in the pipeline. Keep an eye out!
