What Fathom does

Who it’s for: people who spend their days in video meetings, especially salespeople, recruiters, and account managers.

Record and transcribe without limits

Fathom records the call on video and writes down everything that is said. The free plan limits neither the number of recordings nor how long they are kept.

Summary right after the call

As soon as the call ends, Fathom writes a summary. Paid plans add more than 15 summary templates by meeting type, and the full list of action items.

Record without a bot in the call

On Mac, the new app listens directly to the computer’s audio. No extra participant appears in the attendee list. A message can notify the others in the meeting chat.

Also

  • Ask your calls a question
  • Mark a moment and turn it into a clip
  • Share the recording and the summary
  • On iPhone: in-person meetings
  • Fill in the CRM

Nova’s advice

Stay on the free plan as long as you mostly want to record, review, and share. Move to Premium if you often query your calls with “Ask Fathom” or want summaries tailored to each type of meeting. For a sales team, compare Team and Business based on how much you need to fill in the CRM.

Record a short call and read the summaryFathom
  1. Create a ten-minute meeting on your calendar with a coworker, with a Zoom, Meet, or Teams link.
  2. Join the call. Fathom arrives as a participant and shows a recording banner visible to everyone.
  3. Tell your coworker the call is being recorded, then talk about a real topic: a quote, a delivery date.
  4. Hang up. The summary is ready moments later, on the call page.
  5. Read the summary, then open the transcript and the video to check a passage: a figure, a date.
  6. Click “Share” under the title to copy the link, and send it to your coworker.
