The outcomes.

Where your meeting data goes.

Your AI turns raw transcripts into actionable information.

KNOWLEDGE

Instant meeting answers

The AI scans your transcripts to find specific answers to your questions. You get the exact context from a past call without re-watching the video.

RECAPS

Automated summaries

Your agent can condense long discussions into brief bullet points. This helps you catch up on missed meetings or long syncs quickly.

TRACKING

Action item retrieval

Ask your AI to list every task or commitment made during a specific project call. It pulls these directly from the conversation text.

HUMAN

Manual verification

You still need to review the original transcripts if you need to verify exact quotes or tone. The AI provides the information, but you hold the final word.

The workflow

What your AI does when you ask a question.

The AI handles the heavy lifting of searching through your meeting archives.

  1. Locate meetings

    The AI first identifies which meetings in your Fireflies.ai account are relevant to your request.

    list_transcripts

  2. Read the content

    Once it finds the right meeting, the AI pulls the full text of that specific conversation.

    get_transcript

  3. Answer your question

    The AI processes the transcript text to find the specific information you asked for.

    ask_fred

  4. Refine the search

    If the first answer isn't specific enough, the AI can look at other transcripts to provide more context.
