An AI notetaker that joins meetings on more than a dozen apps, writes summaries, and sends notes to your CRM.
An AI meeting tool that turns calls into finished deliverables like slide decks and reports, aimed at consulting and services teams.
Sembly AI is an AI meeting tool built for professional-services teams. It records and transcribes meetings on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and Webex, and produces standard notes, summaries, and task lists. Its distinguishing feature is what it calls AI artifacts: finished documents, such as presentations or case studies, exported as PowerPoint or Word files. It is made by Sembly. Pro and higher plans add Zapier automation, an MCP connection for AI tools, and webhook access. Higher tiers include custom single sign-on, audit logs, and a HIPAA option. Sembly states SOC 2 Type II certification, follows GDPR, and lets customers opt out of model training.
This fits a consulting or professional-services company that wants meetings to produce real deliverables, not just a summary email. A single user can start on the Basic plan, about $10 to $17 per month, but most teams will want Pro, around $20 to $29 per user per month for up to 40 users. The MAX plan, roughly $30 to $39 per user per month, supports up to 500 users and adds custom SSO, audit logs, and HIPAA compliance. Confirm current rates with Sembly, since prices can change. The main thing to watch is accuracy: review AI-generated documents before they go to a client, and make sure staff edit artifacts rather than send them out unchecked.
