Calendly, the scheduling software company, has launched an AI meeting note-taker that records audio and video, transcribes meetings, generates summaries and action items, and drafts follow-up emails. The move brings Calendly into direct competition with a crowded field that includes Granola, Fireflies, Read AI, Otter, and Fathom, as well as productivity suites such as Notion, ClickUp, and Wispr that have added similar features.
- Calendly's note-taker joins meetings, records audio and video, transcribes, then generates summaries, action items, and draft follow-up emails.
- The company is also developing an AI assistant called Callie that uses Calendly's scheduling stack to set up meetings and surface context from prior calls.
- CEO Tope Awotona says the opportunity lies in automating work after transcription, not just the recording itself.
The company said it is testing a Granola-like feature that uses system audio to transcribe meetings. It is also planning an AI assistant named Callie that will tap Calendly’s existing meeting and scheduling stack to set up meetings, check availability, and surface context from prior calls.
CEO Tope Awotona said the product is aimed primarily at people in outward-facing roles such as sales and marketing.
“There’s a litany of note-takers, and all of them do a great job of recording and transcribing notes. But a lot of work happens after the meetings. And we think that really that’s where the opportunity for our note-takers to be efficient.”
On privacy, Awotona said the note-taker will send a chat message informing participants it is recording, and any attendee can ask it to leave. Because of Calendly’s scheduling integration, it can also warn participants before a meeting begins that the call will be recorded.
