Meetings Brief review
A capable free browser assistant for transcripts, summaries, action items, and meeting memory.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Meetings Brief is a free AI meeting assistant from KCF LLC for individuals and teams. It captures live conversations from Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams browser tabs, then produces transcripts, summaries, decisions, and action items. Users can also process uploaded recordings locally. The browser-based approach avoids placing a bot in meetings, while mobile browsers support voice capture and other features. It is suited to users who want meeting notes without creating an account or adding a credit card.
Its strongest area is the combination of structured notes and cross-meeting context. AI summaries are available in six styles, and action-item extraction includes owners and deadlines. Semantic search helps locate information across meeting notes, while Meeting Memory carries decisions and unresolved topics across meetings. Aria, the AI assistant, adds persistent memory. Shareable public meeting brief links and PDF export extend the workflow beyond the browser. Live speech processing takes place in the browser without uploading meeting audio, and the listed ecosystem includes Google Meet, Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Anthropic API, and Supabase.
The main trade-off is scope. Live capture requires Chrome or Edge on a desktop and is focused on browser tabs for three meeting platforms, so users seeking broader platform coverage or a more expansive capture workflow may prefer an alternative. Meetings Brief fits people who prioritize a free, bot-free browser assistant with searchable notes and meeting memory. It is less suitable for teams that need live capture beyond the supported browser and desktop setup, or for workflows centered on meeting platforms outside Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams.
