Pull Fathom Meeting Records into Claude Desktop

Your AI client uses `list_meetings` to fetch your recent calls and `get_meeting` to target a specific session. You do not have to dig through browser tabs or copy-paste text files when you need to check what happened last Tuesday. This MCP server runs locally inside your desktop app or connects via web, letting you query call details using natural language. If you need to find a specific conversation, `search_meetings` lets your agent scan across your entire history in seconds.

Extract Action Items and Summaries Instantly

The `get_action_items` tool pulls the exact tasks identified during your call so you can format them into project updates inside Claude Desktop. You skip the manual review process entirely. To get a quick overview of long calls, the agent runs `get_summary` or grabs specific moments using `get_highlights`. This keeps your context window clean by fetching only the high-value details instead of dumping hours of raw text into the chat.

Access Transcripts and Attendee Lists Directly

The `get_transcript` tool feeds the raw call text straight to Claude Desktop for deep analysis or custom editing. You pair this with `get_attendees` to see exactly who said what during the meeting. If you need to share the raw media, `get_recording` pulls the direct URLs for your team. You also view shared spaces using `get_team_meetings` to keep track of calls across your entire organization.
