Fireflies.ai is an AI meeting assistant. It records and transcribes calls, writes summaries and action items, and stores everything in a searchable library. Its appeal is less about one great meeting summary and more about being able to search months of conversations later.
This review is built from Fireflies’ pricing page, read on 12 October 2026. We have not run meetings through it for this page, so it is labelled as researched. See how we test for what that means.
What you get
Transcription on every plan. The pricing page lists unlimited transcription on Free, Pro, Business and Enterprise. That is generous, and it means the free plan is useful for trying the transcription itself.
AI summaries. Summaries are limited on the free plan and listed as unlimited on Pro, Business and Enterprise. Summaries are where AI note takers differ most in quality, so test them on your own meetings.
Storage. Free lists 400 minutes per team. Pro lists 8,000 minutes per seat. Business and Enterprise list unlimited storage.
AI credits. The page lists 20 credits on Free and Pro, 30 on Business and 50 on Enterprise. It does not spell out what a credit covers.
Integrations. We did not verify Fireflies’ integration list for this page. Confirm that it connects to your calendar, video-call tool and CRM before you pay.
Plans and pricing
| Plan | Price per seat, annual billing | Storage | AI summaries |
|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | 400 minutes per team | Limited |
| Pro | $10 a month | 8,000 minutes per seat | Unlimited |
| Business | $19 a month | Unlimited | Unlimited |

The page also showed $18 for Pro and $29 for Business next to the annual prices, without clear labels. Those may be the monthly-billed prices. Treat them as unconfirmed.
Who it suits
Fireflies fits teams, consultants and agencies that have a lot of calls and want to search them: “what did the client say about the deadline in September?” is the kind of question a library answers well. The low per-seat annual price makes it easy to put on a small team.
If you only join a few calls a month, a free-only tool may be enough. Our AI meeting note takers comparison shows how Fathom’s free plan and Otter’s free plan differ in limits.
Privacy and consent
Fireflies, like most tools of its kind, works best when everyone on the call knows it is there. Tell attendees at the start that the meeting is being recorded and transcribed. For client calls or anything confidential, read the vendor’s security and retention terms and check with whoever handles compliance at your company.
Verdict
Fireflies is a sensible choice for teams that want searchable meeting history without a high per-seat cost. The free plan is best seen as a trial because of its small storage and limited summaries, and the real value starts on Pro. Before paying, run it on three real meetings and check the summaries and action items against what was actually agreed.
Common questions
Is Fireflies.ai free?
Yes. The free plan lists unlimited transcription, 400 minutes of storage per team, limited AI summaries and 20 AI credits. It works well as a trial, but a team that records often will hit the storage limit.
How much does Fireflies cost?
On 12 October 2026 the pricing page listed Pro at $10 per seat a month and Business at $19, both on annual billing. Enterprise was listed at $39 per seat, annual only. The page also showed $18 and $29 figures that were not clearly labelled, which may be monthly-billed prices, so check at checkout.
What are AI credits?
The pricing page lists a number of AI credits per plan: 20 on Free and Pro, 30 on Business and 50 on Enterprise. The page does not explain in detail what each credit buys, so read the vendor’s help pages before relying on them.
Is Fireflies safe for confidential meetings?
Read Fireflies’ security and data-retention terms and check your own company policy first. Enterprise adds controls such as SSO, but any recording tool needs attendees’ knowledge and, where required, their consent.
