What is Fathom?
Fathom records and transcribes calls on Zoom, Google Meet, and Teams, delivers summaries seconds after the meeting ends, and syncs notes to CRMs.
Fathom is known for a strong free tier for individuals and for summaries that arrive almost immediately after a call. Team editions add shared libraries, CRM sync, and coaching features. It supports multiple summary templates, highlights, and clip sharing, and it records with participant notice.
A notably generous free plan and near-instant summaries, positioned for individual professionals and sales teams rather than enterprise analytics suites.
