Bluedot

Bot-free AI notetaker that records and summarizes meetings.

Bluedot captures, transcribes, and summarizes online and in-person meetings without sending a bot into the call — recording happens through the browser extension or desktop app instead.

  • Auto-syncs notes to CRM and Notion
  • Free tier to try it out
  • Free plan capped at 5 lifetime meetings

    AI notepad for back-to-back meetings — captures your Mac's audio, no meeting bot.

    A desktop notepad that captures your computer's audio during calls and enhances your rough notes into structured summaries afterward. Because it records the system's own audio rather than dispatching a bot into the meeting, there's no visible notetaker for participants. Includes shared folders, custom templates, and an AI chat over your notes.

    Worth knowing

    Raised a $125M Series C in March 2026 at a $1.5B valuation, up from $250M under a year earlier as it pushed into enterprise.
