Considered Both Products

Chose Read AI
As a Google backbone user, Read.Ai out does Gemini in may aspects but lacks the interoprability that obviously a Google developed product has
tl;dv
Chose tl;dv
I have used both Supernormal and Firflies.ai earlier.

So while I was evaluating something seriously when I stacked the free versions of all 3 products, I think even then tl;dv showed me more value per meeting, and I could clearly see what all would get unlocked in a Premium …
Chose tl;dv
tl;dv has an advantage over Gemini wherein it can follow a template if there is a preset.
Gemini's greatest advantage is its Google integration, and how much more it can do with the LLM if I had follow-up questions.
Chose tl;dv
While Trustradius seems to have a comprehensive list of assistants; its missed Granola.
Granola! has to be the best of these. Its quite generous in its meeting quota and it's AI quota.
Chose tl;dv
Avoma is more expensive than tl;dv, but it also has powerful revenue intelligence. Basically, if tl;dv doesn't offer enough revenue features for your needs, but Gong offers too much, Avoma may be the ideal balance.

Avoma é mais caro que o tl;dv e, por outro lado, possui …

The management of larger meetings and keeping track of who has said what and really works well with CPD's Continued Professional Development meetings as the summaries come in handy, expecially if you have run late, Read.Ai has already in the meetings and ensures I don't miss anything important shared in these type of meetings and discussions.

While the use case of using tl;dv is pretty obvious, our case is to keep necessary meetings stored in one place. What I like about tl;dv is the quality of their transcript. There's a rare case when the transcript is not accurate. We have several paid licenses and they give much more opportunities to follow what was discussed during the meeting. We don't use any automations so I just copy the transcript and manually put it in my ChatGPT for notes. We also face some challenges sometimes when tl;dv doesn't join the meeting properly. It blocks us and we have to run some other notetaker we have. This usually happens when someone has the setting to have tl;dv always joining the meeting that the person is invited to. In this case, there's a conflict between the notetakers and we have to resolve them. Despite that, our company still enjoys using tl;dv due to the quality of the transcript and also due to the ability to add an external recording manually to the recording storage.

Usability
I have been using it for almost a year and still playing around with some of the features, but thus far its good but there is always room for improvement
Read full review
Its average in everything and thus 5/10.
Since it is free for the most part; my submission is go for it
Don't expect anything amazing or out of the ordinary from it.

I have used both Supernormal and Firflies.ai earlier. So while I was evaluating something seriously when I stacked the free versions of all 3 products, I think even then tl;dv showed me more value per meeting, and I could clearly see what all would get unlocked in a Premium version. Giving the user limited but detailed access on a meeting level unlocked more value for me so decision making was way easier for me.

Return on Investment
  • Time is money, Read.Ai saves you time and money
  • So far had greater impact on me personaly whichs spills over into business as I am the owner
  • Great for keeping track of business partnership discussions
Read full review
  • We've most likely saved 3-5 hours every week by trusting tl;dv to provide us with comprehensive notes during meetings
  • The app also minimized follow-up meetings or questions since we can always go back to our recorded meetings
  • It's a great way to review previous or recorded meetings, especially for newly onboarded team members who need a quick example or rundown of how things go within the company
