Why Transcapt

No bot joining your meetings

Some organizations block third-party meeting bots for security/privacy reasons. Transcapt works on recording files, so no bot is needed in the meeting itself.

Handles any recording source

Fireflies connects to Zoom/Meet/Teams. Transcapt accepts any audio/video file — meetings, podcasts, lectures, interviews, voice memos, YouTube — all unified.

Pay-per-use instead of annual seats

Fireflies is $10/seat/year Pro or higher tiers for teams. Transcapt has no per-seat pricing — a team of 5 pays for actual recording volume, not seat licenses.

Strong LATAM Spanish handling

Fireflies supports 60+ languages but without dialect-specific tuning. Transcapt is explicitly optimized for Mexican, Argentine, Chilean, Colombian, and Peruvian Spanish.

Pay-per-use pricing, no subscription

Pay only for the minutes you transcribe. Credits never expire.

Frequently asked questions

Should I use Fireflies if I mostly run meetings?+

Yes, if you prefer the 'bot joins meetings automatically' workflow and need CRM integration. Fireflies is purpose-built for that. If you already record meetings and want flexible file transcription plus file-based workflows (podcasts, interviews, YouTube), Transcapt is a better fit.

Can Transcapt process Zoom recordings?+

Yes. Download the Zoom recording (MP4) and upload to Transcapt. You get a transcript in minutes. No bot required.

Does Fireflies have better CRM integration?+

Yes. Fireflies natively pushes meeting summaries to HubSpot, Salesforce, and other CRMs. Transcapt is transcription-only — you'd use an external integration tool to push to CRM.

How do pricing structures compare at volume?+

A 10-person team using Fireflies Pro: $100/year. Transcapt at equivalent recording volume (say 200 meetings/year, 30 min each): ~$80-100/year total, not per seat.

Can I use both — Fireflies for meetings and Transcapt for files?+

Many teams do exactly that. Fireflies handles the live meeting flow; Transcapt handles podcast/interview/YouTube files outside the meeting scope. The two tools complement each other.
