# Fireflies.ai MCP > Fireflies.ai connects your AI client directly to meeting intelligence. It transcribes calls from Zoom or Google Meet and turns hours of audio into searchable data points, summarized action items, and detailed conversation analytics. Stop re-watching recordings; ask your agent questions about your entire meeting history. ## Overview - **Category:** productivity - **Price:** Free - **Tags:** meeting-transcription, note-taking, conversation-analytics, voice-assistant, meeting-intelligence, nlp ## Description Connecting Fireflies.ai through Vinkius gives you deep insight into everything that happens during virtual meetings. Instead of dealing with disorganized notes or massive video files, you can talk to your AI client and simply ask what happened. It transcribes conversations across multiple platforms, pulls out key action items, and even analyzes who talked more than whom—giving you hard metrics like the talk-to-listen ratio for any team discussion. You can query every single transcript in your history with natural language prompts. Need to track down a specific decision made three months ago? Just ask. Plus, you manage the bot directly; you can invite it to an ongoing meeting using just the URL or rename old transcripts so your database stays clean and organized. ## Tools ### add_to_live_meeting Invites Fireflies.ai to join an ongoing live video conference call. ### create_ask_fred_thread Allows you to ask a specific question directly to the integrated AI assistant, AskFred. ### delete_transcript Removes an entire meeting transcript from your archive. ### get_analytics Pulls comprehensive metrics about a past meeting, like who spoke the most. ### get_ask_fred_thread Retrieves the back-and-forth message history from your AskFred analysis threads. ### get_transcript Fetches all summarized details and key points for a specific, named meeting transcript. ### get_user Retrieves detailed profile information about a specified team member. ### list_active_meetings Shows you which meetings are currently being recorded and transcribed in real-time. ### list_ask_fred_threads Lists all the analysis threads you've created with AskFred. ### list_transcripts Retrieves a list of your most recently recorded meetings and their basic summaries. ### list_users Outputs a roster listing all team members connected to Fireflies.ai. ### update_meeting_title Changes the name of an old meeting transcript for better organization. ## Prompt Examples **Prompt:** ``` List my 5 most recent meeting transcripts. ``` **Response:** ``` Fetching transcripts...

Instead of searching through 40 minutes of video, they ask their agent to get_transcript for that meeting and specify 'action items related to budgeting,' instantly getting a clear list. ### Analyzing Sales Performance A sales manager wants to benchmark two reps. They use the get_analytics tool on both reps' discovery calls, allowing them to compare talk-to-listen ratios and identify where one rep needs pitch refinement. ### Quickly Onboarding a New Team Member An executive assistant wants to give a new hire context. They ask the agent to list_users, get details on key team members using get_user, and then summarize all past project discussions for the new person. ### Handling Meeting Overload A user has hundreds of old transcripts cluttering their system. They use list_transcripts to see what they have, then rename irrelevant ones using update_meeting_title and delete the rest via delete_transcript. ## Benefits - Stop wasting time re-watching hours of video. Instead, you can ask your agent to pull out specific action items or keywords directly from the transcript using the get_transcript tool. - Improve team communication immediately by getting conversation analytics. The get_analytics function delivers hard metrics, like talk-to-listen ratios, so teams know what needs work. - Never miss a follow-up task again. Use the ask_fred_thread capability to query your entire meeting history and retrieve specific decisions made months ago. - Keep your workspace clean and searchable. You can list transcripts and use update_meeting_title or delete_transcript when you're done with old data, keeping only what matters. - You don't need to copy links manually. Use the add_to_live_meeting tool to invite the bot directly into a Zoom or Google Meet call using just the URL. ## How It Works The bottom line is you get immediate access to structured, searchable data from all your recorded conversations. 1.
