Bluedot vs OLVA

Bluedot captures and transcribes online and in-person meetings, then creates summaries in more than 100 languages. It can record without a bot joining the call. Its built-in AI chat answers questions and finds insights across multiple meetings, while searchable transcripts and summaries can be shared by link, commented on, or clipped into highlights. Listed capture contexts include Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Slack huddles, phone calls, and in-person meetings. Capture is available through browser extensions, desktop apps, and mobile apps. Bluedot also lists integrations such as Google Calendar, Drive, HubSpot, Notion, Outlook, Salesforce, Slack, Zapier, and Zoom. The free plan includes five meetings over the account’s lifetime; recordings can still be viewed and shared afterward. Paid plans start at $14/user/mo billed annually, and a three-day trial is listed. The Basic plan limits each recording to one hour. Bluedot says it encrypts data in transit and at rest and does not use customer data to train AI models.

OLVA is a meeting assistant that provides live transcription, question detection, contextual answers, coaching prompts and searchable meeting memory. Desktop OLVA captures audio from the user's device without appearing as a meeting participant, and works alongside Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack huddles and Webex. Users can add notes and PDF, text, Markdown, DOCX or PPTX files as meeting context, subject to a plan's shared word limit. The listing states 87 transcription languages; the default Soniox speech provider supports 60 spoken languages with automatic detection and multiple selected languages. Calendar integrations are available. Pro and Ultra include Notion, Slack, Google Drive and outbound webhooks; Plus does not. The iOS and Android apps use the microphone for in-person conversations, but do not capture another app's system audio. OLVA says meeting audio and video are not stored on its systems, while transcripts and other materials are handled under its Privacy Policy. Plus costs $14.99 a month, Pro $24.99 a month and Ultra $99.99 a month. The maker describes Pro as suited to heavy meeting weeks and customer-facing roles, among others.
