Meetings, head to head

Briefi vs Fellow

Both turn meetings into notes and action items. Fellow starts from the agenda: shared meeting agendas, an AI agenda, and capture with a bot, without one or in person, at a low price for each seat. Briefi is built around the client: a brief before you meet, a follow-up drafted and sent from your own mailbox, and the meeting filed to the client’s record. If your team runs on shared agendas, Fellow is a strong choice. If you meet clients and owe them something afterwards, Briefi keeps that in one place.

Where Fellow wins

When Fellow is the better choice

If any of these decides it for you, Fellow is likely the better fit today.

Agendas

Agendas built together

Fellow lists collaborative meeting agendas and an AI meeting agenda in its feature table. Briefi writes you a brief before a meeting, but does not offer shared agendas.2

Free plan

A free plan, and a low price for each seat

Fellow’s Free plan costs nothing, with a lifetime cap on AI notes and recordings, and its Team plan is listed at $7 per user a month on annual billing. Briefi has a free trial, then paid plans.2

Capture

A bot, no bot or in person

Fellow says you can use a bot, go botless or capture in person. Briefi can do all three, but its bot is on Pro and up.1

Actions

Actions pushed to your task tools

Fellow can push action items to Monday, Asana, Jira and Linear.1

Salesforce

Salesforce sync

Fellow lists Salesforce and HubSpot on Business and up. Briefi connects to seven CRMs, but Salesforce is not one of them.2

Assurance

Security for regulated teams

Fellow positions itself for regulated industries. Its home page FAQ says it is “SOC 2 Type II certified and HIPAA-eligible, with BAAs available”.1

Where Briefi is different

The meeting is one step in the client’s story.

Briefi was built for people who meet the same clients for years. The notes are where a meeting ends, and what you owe the client is what comes next.

  • A brief before you meetMeetings

    Briefi writes a brief ahead of the meeting, so you walk in knowing the history, the open actions and what was promised last time.

  • The follow-up, from your own mailboxMeetings

    The recap becomes a follow-up draft you can edit and send from your Gmail, Microsoft 365 or SMTP mailbox, so it arrives from you.

  • An action register, not a list in a noteMeetings

    Actions from every meeting land in one register, with reminders on Pro and up, so nothing lives only in last month’s notes.

  • The meeting on the client’s recordAdvisor

    Advisor puts meetings, forms, signed copies and registers for a client on one record, with an optional client portal.

Meetings on its own has no client record, signing or portal. Advisor adds them on the same workspace.

Questions

Briefi and Fellow, asked often

Is Briefi a straight Fellow replacement?

For client meetings, often yes, and it is built around the client: the brief before, the follow-up from your own mailbox and the action register. If you rely on shared agendas or Salesforce sync, Fellow may suit you better.

Does Briefi join meetings with a bot?

Yes, on Pro and up, for Zoom, Teams and Google Meet, when the calendar event has a join link. You can also record without a bot in the browser, or face to face with the standalone recorder.

Does Briefi connect to Salesforce?

No. Briefi connects to GoHighLevel, HubSpot, Monday, Pipedrive, Close, Copper and ActiveCampaign. If Salesforce is where your team works, Fellow lists it.

Does Briefi write in languages other than English?

Transcription detects the language spoken. The recaps, forms and PDFs Briefi writes are in English only.

Where is my clients’ data stored?

Stored in Sydney. Some processing uses providers overseas. Sensitive content is encrypted with a key held for your workspace. The Security page lists the providers and where they are.

How does Briefi protect client data?

The Security page sets out how data is stored, encrypted and accessed, so your own review can proceed on the facts.
