Overview
What you provide
- Connect an authorised meeting or supported workplace source that the assistant is allowed to access.
What you get
- Read generates transcripts, summaries, action items and searchable answers grounded in connected content.
Choosing this tool
Read AI is useful when notes should join searchable meeting, email and message context. Pro covers recurring transcription, but it does not include audio/video playback; a team that must revisit the recording should compare Enterprise instead. Avoma is a stronger comparison for recorder-only charging and CRM handoff, while tl;dv separates single-meeting AI from multi-meeting reporting. Evaluate any meeting-coach signals as estimates, not as an objective assessment of an employee.
A decision worked through
Four people in a Pro workspace imply USD 720/year at the annual rate. A fifth person invited only to administer the workspace still needs a licence under the published rule, raising that example to USD 900/year.

Setup & workflow
- Start with one consented meeting containing clear agenda items.
- Compare the transcript and proposed tasks against the actual discussion.
- Restrict sharing to the intended workspace before inviting more colleagues.
Requirements & installation
- Choose which calendars and conversations may be connected before enabling automatic attendance.
Limits & review
- Free meeting length and monthly counts are separate restrictions. Playback, retention controls and enterprise identity features depend on higher tiers; search access does not override the permissions of connected sources.
Your part
- Confirm participant permission and check the source passage behind each assigned action.
