Fireflies.ai Review 2026: Pricing, Features & Honest Verdict
TL;DR: Fireflies.ai records, transcribes, and summarizes meetings automatically, and its Free plan already includes unlimited transcription — a rare offer in this category, though shared team storage is capped.
Quick verdict
- Want automatic notes and action items across Zoom, Meet, or Teams without a per-minute cap on the free plan
- Want an AI assistant (AskFred) you can ask questions about past meetings
- Plan to connect several integrations without hitting a hard wall at the entry paid tier
- Record a high volume of meetings on the free plan — storage is capped at 400 shared minutes per team, not per meeting
- Need multi-language mode or conversation intelligence without upgrading to Business
- Require HIPAA compliance, SSO or SCIM below the Enterprise tier

- Unlimited integrations from the Pro tier, with no separate add-on fee
Cons
- Free-plan storage is a shared 400 minutes per team, which a small team can burn through quickly

Frequently asked questions
Is Fireflies.ai actually free to use?
Yes. The Free plan has no time limit and no credit card requirement, and transcription itself is unlimited. The real constraint is a shared 400-minute storage cap per team, not a feature or usage cap.
What's the difference between the Pro and Business plans?
Business adds multi-language mode, conversation intelligence, team analytics and unlimited storage, at $29/month per seat monthly or $19/month per seat billed annually. Pro is $18/month monthly or $10/month billed annually, with unlimited integrations but none of those Business-only features.
Does Fireflies.ai integrate with calendars and CRMs?
Yes — unlimited third-party integrations are included from the Pro tier upward, according to Fireflies' published pricing page.
Our take
Fireflies.ai's real differentiator is a Free plan that doesn't cap the transcription feature itself, only shared team storage — most competitors in this category cap it the other way around (a monthly minutes limit per user, unlimited storage). For a small team recording meetings occasionally, that free tier alone can cover real use; teams recording daily will bump into the 400-minute team cap fairly fast and want Pro or Business for downloads, integrations and higher storage.
