MeetingSidekick review
A flexible meeting capture tool with strong core features but limited ecosystem support.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
MeetingSidekick is a browser-based AI meeting assistant for individuals capturing virtual and in-person conversations. It records audio through a device, creates live transcripts, summarizes meetings with decisions and action items, and supports transcript questions through a meeting chatbot. Browser-based capture works with shared audio from Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, Webex, and other browser-played calls, while phone-based microphone capture supports room meetings, interviews, lectures, and speaker-based calls. It does not require a bot, desktop app, or browser extension.
Its pricing suits buyers who want either a free starting point or usage-based flexibility. The Free plan costs $0 per month and includes live transcription, AI summaries, a meeting chatbot, and email recaps. Pro costs $15 per month or $120 per year, adding 30 hours of recording per month, speaker names on every transcript, search across all meetings, and meeting audio replay. Max costs $50 per month or $400 per year, adding unlimited recording and screenshot chat. An Hours pack costs $9 as a one-time payment for five recording hours, with hours that never expire and no subscription required.
MeetingSidekick’s main strength is focused capture across web and mobile: it supports web, iOS, and Android, with search, saved audio replay on Pro and Max, email recaps, and screenshot chat on Max. The trade-off is a narrower platform footprint: there are no integrations or calendar support. Buyers who primarily need flexible transcription, summaries, and occasional recording should find the plan structure easy to match to their usage. Teams seeking connected scheduling, workflow automation, or a wider integration ecosystem should choose an alternative.
