Bluedot vs Wudpecker

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.

Wudpecker records meetings and turns them into searchable transcripts and organized follow-up. It provides AI summaries, speaker labels, action-item tracking, and note templates, while its archive lets users search past meeting material. Wudpecker is available on web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. The Free plan costs nothing and is billed monthly; it allows 10 meetings per month with the notetaker bot and 3 Ask AI questions per recording. Plus costs $19 a month, billed monthly, and includes 30 meetings per month with the bot. Pro costs $32 a month, billed monthly, with 100 bot meetings per month. The pricing note describes paid access as starting from $19/user/mo and lists a 14-day trial. The plan limits are centered on monthly meeting volume, so the relevant tier depends on how many meetings need bot coverage. Transcription, summaries, speaker labeling, and action items provide a set of tools for capturing conversations and locating their follow-up later.
