Sembly AI: business software for small teams

What it does

Sembly AI is an AI meeting assistant. It joins your video calls from your calendar, records them, and writes a transcript with each speaker named. Then it produces a summary, the key topics, the decisions and risks it noticed, and a list of tasks with owners and deadlines. On paid plans it also turns a meeting into a proposal, a status report or a pitch deck you can export as PowerPoint or Word, and drafts a follow-up email. It works with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Webex, and its phone app records conversations held in person.

Sembly sits closer to the work after the meeting than a plain notetaker does. A tool that only transcribes saves you typing. Sembly also drafts the document that goes to the client, which is the part most people still do by hand.

Editorial note

Sembly AI is an AI meeting assistant. It joins your Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Webex calls, records them, and writes up notes, summaries and tasks. It also records in-person conversations through its phone app. Prices on Sembly's own pricing page, checked October 30, 2026: Basic is $17 a month billed monthly or $10 billed annually; Pro is $29 or $20 per user a month; MAX is $39 or $30 per user a month. There is a free trial, not a free plan.

Who it’s for

Sembly AI is built for people who spend their week in client meetings and then have to write up what was decided. That covers consultants, agencies, project managers, sales teams and customer success teams. The features that matter most on the paid plans are the ones that turn a meeting into a finished document in your client's branding.

It is a poor fit in one common case. When not to use it: if you only need notes from the odd call and you do not want another subscription, Sembly is more than you need. It has no free plan for ongoing use, only a free trial, and its free trial records just one hour of meetings a month. For occasional calls, the meeting notes that Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams already include will usually do, and they cost nothing extra.

Key use cases

• Meetings & notes

What you can do with it

• It joins the call for you. Sembly connects to your calendar and joins meetings that have a video link, so you do not have to remember to start a recorder. It also has a way to attend a meeting you cannot make, so you still get the recording and the notes.
• It writes the notes. After each meeting you get a transcript with each speaker named, a summary, the key topics, and any decisions and risks it heard. It transcribes in more than 45 languages and copes with meetings where people switch language.
• It pulls out tasks. Each commitment made in the meeting becomes a task with an owner, a deadline and a short description, so follow-ups do not get lost.
• It writes the follow-up document. On paid plans Sembly turns a meeting into a proposal, a status report or a pitch deck, exported as PowerPoint or Word files in your client's branding.
• It records conversations held in person. The Sembly phone app records a conversation you have face to face and gives you the same notes and tasks as an online meeting.
• It connects to other tools. Paid plans include automations, webhooks, Zapier and MCP access, which lets an AI assistant such as Claude or Cursor ask questions about your meetings.
