Comparison · AI meeting notetaker

onCall vs Fireflies.ai

Fireflies is a strong general-purpose notetaker — transcripts, summaries, and 50+ integrations across the whole company. But it's horizontal by design: no pre-call research, no deal scoring, and an AI-credit system governing its smartest features. onCall is vertical: everything it does exists to tell you whether the deal will close.

FAQ

onCall vs Fireflies.ai, asked directly

Isn't Fireflies cheaper than onCall?

At the entry tier, Fireflies Pro is $10/user/month; onCall is free during its private beta, with $29/user/month planned. Fireflies' AI features draw from a credit system, and sales-relevant capability (CRM push, team analytics) starts at Business ($19) and up. onCall includes pre-call research, framework scoring on every call, and follow-up drafts — features Fireflies doesn't offer at any tier.

Does Fireflies score deals like onCall?

No. Fireflies produces transcripts, summaries, topic trackers, and an AI assistant (AskFred). It does not score calls against sales frameworks. onCall scores every call 0–100 for deal health and urgency using MEDDIC, SPIN, or BANT, auto-detected per call.

Can I run onCall and Fireflies together?

Technically yes — both join as separate calendar bots — but two visible bots in one meeting is awkward for prospects. Most sales teams pick one notetaker per call; onCall covers transcript, summary, and recording, so running both is redundant for sales meetings.
