    ToolTrim Analysis

    Our take on Fathom.

    Fathom is an AI assistant that joins your video meetings (Zoom, Google Meet, Teams), records them, transcribes them and automatically generates a structured summary with action items. You can keep focusing on the conversation while Fathom takes notes.

    The Premium plan at $19/month (≈€17.48) unlocks unlimited AI summaries, automatic action items, generated follow-up emails and CRM export. The free version is generous but limited to 5 AI summaries/month since March 2026.

    For consultants, salespeople and project managers who chain calls back to back, Fathom eliminates manual note-taking and ensures nothing is forgotten. At $19/month, it's one of the best value-for-money tools in the meeting notes category.
