I always ask if the other attendees are ok with my using the app. If they were not comfortable, I would turn it off. This is likely over-cautious, but I also am hesitant to use it in extremely sensitive and confidential conversations. I use it as often as possible and am heavily reliant on it for any status meetings where there might be action items for any attendee, etc

It was free until recently, so this is n/a. I do have a paid subscription now that they released new AI features, but those are too new to review.
The time I don't have to spend reviewing or rewriting my notes can be multiplied by my hourly rate, and would be a significant number if looked at on a monthly basis, but if you also consider the energy I get back and ability to be more present in meetings, that is priceless.
