Avoma vs Notta

Avoma is a US-based AI meeting assistant that records, transcribes and summarizes calls, then extends into scheduling, lead routing, conversation intelligence and revenue intelligence. It is aimed at sales, customer success and recruiting teams that want call notes, CRM updates and coaching insights in one tool instead of stitching together a notetaker, a scheduler and a separate coaching platform.

The core plan records Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams meetings, transcribes in more than 70 languages, writes AI notes from templates, drafts follow-up emails and pushes notes and fields into Salesforce, HubSpot or Pipedrive. Ask Avoma answers questions about a meeting or, on Enterprise, across all meetings. Paid seats are only needed for people who record; viewers are free. Conversation Intelligence (call scoring, talk patterns, topic trackers), Revenue Intelligence (deal and churn risk, MEDDIC or BANT scoring, forecasting) and Lead Router are sold as per-seat add-ons.

Avoma fits SMB and mid-market revenue teams that want Gong-style insight at a fraction of the price. Gong is deeper for large sales organizations, Fireflies and Otter are cheaper if you only need transcripts, and tl;dv is lighter and friendlier for product and research calls.

Buying tip: annual billing saves up to a third on the base plan, but add-ons quickly double the per-seat cost, so trial the Organization plan for 14 days with all add-ons enabled and keep only the ones reps actually use. Avoma also offers an MCP server and API that expose meeting transcripts and notes to AI assistants.

Notta is an AI transcription and meeting notes app launched in 2020, with Japan as a key market; the company says more than 5,000 companies and 15 million people use it. In December 2025 it announced a Series B of about ¥2.3 billion (roughly $15 million) led by Granite-Integral Capital. Its core job is turning meetings, interviews and audio files into searchable transcripts and AI summaries across many languages.

Notta transcribes in 58 languages, joins Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Webex calls with a bot, records in the browser and on mobile, imports audio and video files, identifies speakers and produces AI summaries with templates. It also offers transcript translation, bilingual transcription and real-time translation as add-ons, plus Notta Brain for asking questions across recordings. The free plan gives 120 minutes a month with a 3-minute limit per recording. Pro adds 1,800 minutes and exports, Business adds unlimited minutes, video recording and CRM and Zapier sync, and Enterprise adds SSO and audit logs.

Notta fits multilingual teams, researchers and journalists who need accurate transcripts in languages beyond English. Otter.ai is stronger on English-only meetings, Fireflies on CRM and conversation intelligence, and tl;dv on video clips. The free plan is too restrictive for real meetings.

Buying tip: the pricing page shows annual prices with about 40% off; bilingual transcription and real-time translation are limited to a few free uses a month and cost extra beyond that, so budget them if you mix languages in meetings.
