Fathom AI Notetaker vs Leexi

Fathom AI Notetaker

The captured pages show a bot that joins Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Slack Huddles, a bot-free beta on Mac that keeps speaker attribution and mute acknowledgment, and real-time capture, transcription and summarisation. We found no public information on supported languages with German stated, transcript editing, timestamps or accuracy, and the dedicated iOS app for in-person meetings is described as not live yet.

Leexi

The assistant joins ten conferencing services including Teams, Zoom, Google Meet and Webex, records in-person meetings from an iOS or Android app or the room's audio, captures VoIP calls, handles over 100 automatically detected languages, and runs speech-to-text through named providers (Gladia, ElevenLabs, Microsoft Azure Speech) with a company dictionary for jargon, acronyms and accents. We found no public information on botless capture, mixed-language meetings, per-language accuracy, or editing of the transcript.

Fathom AI Notetaker

Summaries with decisions and action items assigned by name, search, Ask Fathom questions across team calls, trackers and a shared workspace are documented, with automation recipes pushing tasks to Asana or Notion. The API reference, however, states the summary is "Always displayed in English", and we found no public information on German summaries, templates per meeting type, or answers that cite the transcript passage they rest on — thin ground for a German-language workforce.

Leexi

Summaries adapt to meeting type using the organisation's own templates, decisions, tasks with suggested owners and deadlines are extracted, Ask Leexi searches across meetings, minutes export to Word, Google Docs or PDF and land by email or on the CRM record, and the AI providers behind summaries (Mistral, Azure OpenAI) are named. The archive is queryable through the MCP server under the account's existing permissions; we found no public information on choosing the summary language or on answers citing the transcript passage they rest on.

Fathom AI Notetaker

The notes reach the systems where work happens: a documented REST API with webhooks and SDKs, an MCP server for ChatGPT, Claude and other tools, CRM field sync into Salesforce and HubSpot with no manual entry, plus Slack, Asana, Notion, Zapier and Make. We found no public information on recording rules per calendar or meeting type, SharePoint or Confluence export, or CRMs beyond Salesforce and HubSpot.

Leexi

Calendars from Google, Outlook and on-premises Exchange drive automatic joining with manual invitation as an alternative, eleven CRMs including HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive and Dynamics receive notes, Slack, Notion, Google Docs and SharePoint take the output, and a public REST API with reference documentation plus a read-only MCP server with scoped access are documented. Rate limits, API versioning and central administration of integrations are not described.

Fathom AI Notetaker

The terms forbid using the service if any participant does not consent, the bot appears in the participant list, and the data processing agreement promises assistance with a data protection impact assessment. Beyond that we found no public information on a notice to external guests, a participant opt-out, admin rules for when the assistant joins, per-person analytics being switchable off, or any works-council information pack or works-agreement template — while coaching metrics and AI scorecards are advertised as features. Before I could agree to this under § 87 BetrVG, the vendor would have to answer in writing who is told a recording runs and who can stop it.

Leexi

The pages state plainly that participants must be informed before recording begins, that the vendor enforces default consent and the EU AI Act transparency duty, and that the CNIL rules out permanent systematic recording — useful lines for a works agreement — and joining can be governed by admin settings. But we found no public information on a participant opting out or stopping a recording, no statement that the Coach module's evaluation scorecards and performance analysis are off by default or can be switched off for the organisation, and no works-agreement template; the compliance dossier covers hosting, subcontractors and certifications only.

Fathom AI Notetaker

The stated default retention is "as long as necessary or legally required", with custom data retention policies, regional storage options and audit logs placed at the admin level for enterprise accounts; we found no public information on automatic deletion by policy or audio being discarded after transcription. Single sign-on with SCIM provisioning, admin sharing rules, encryption at rest and in transit, SOC 2 Type II, third parties barred from training on customer content and an opt-out from the vendor's in-house training on de-identified data are all documented — enough to negotiate on, not yet enough to sign.

Leexi

Retention is governable: a two-year default reducible by the client in platform settings, plan-specific periods, a Governance module with retention policy, eight roles, SSO with SCIM and audit logs, and deleted recordings unrecoverable. The ten subprocessors are listed with their regions, the DPA is public with 24-hour breach notification, audit rights and return-or-deletion at contract end, and no training on conversations is promised — though that commitment is documented in the privacy policy and FAQ rather than as a DPA clause. We found no public information on discarding audio after transcription, legal hold, or zero retention at subprocessors.

Fathom AI Notetaker

The contracting entity is Fathom Video Inc., a Delaware corporation in San Francisco, the privacy policy states the service is hosted in the United States, and the terms run under California law with binding arbitration. An EU representative in Cork, EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework certification and a published data processing agreement exist, but we found no public information on European hosting, and the trust-page subprocessor list shows no entries in the captured version, so the AI and transcription providers behind the product remain unnamed.

Leexi

Leexi SA is a Belgian public limited company in Brussels; recordings, transcripts and minutes are stored and processed on AWS in Paris with a Scaleway option above certain licence volumes, and the language model runs as OpenAI via Azure France in a closed circuit alongside Mistral in the EU. All ten subprocessors are listed with locations in the EU, Europe or the UK, a public data processing agreement exists, and ISO 27001:2022 is stated. The default host is a US company theoretically subject to the Cloud Act and the fully sovereign Scaleway option is conditional on licence volume, which keeps this short of the top level.

Fathom AI Notetaker

The pricing page publishes Team at $15 /month / per user (2 user min), Business at $25 /month / per user (2 user min), Enterprise at $35 /month / per user annual only, annual billing saving 25%+, a free plan with unlimited recordings and no usage caps, and cancellation without penalty. We cannot compute the full cost: single sign-on, custom retention and the Launch Assist add-on are not priced publicly, and we found no public information on VAT treatment or what counts as a seat beyond the two-user minimum.

Leexi

Three of four plans carry public licence prices — Starter 12€/month (15€ regular), AI-Meeting 23€/month (29€), Business 39€/month (49€), each per licence per month on annual invoice excluding VAT — plus volume discounts from ten licences, minimum user counts, a seven-day free trial and no setup cost. The Enterprise tier is price-on-request, what counts as a seat is not stated, and monthly billing and per-plan storage are not fully described, so a buyer cannot compute the complete annual cost from the pages alone.
