Fellow vs Supernormal

Fellow is a meeting management platform made by a Canadian company headquartered in Ottawa. It covers the whole meeting cycle: collaborative agendas prepared before the call, notes and decisions captured during it, and action items and recaps followed up afterwards, with a strong focus on recurring one-on-ones and team meetings run by managers.

Agendas live in a shared notes document attached to each calendar event, with a template library for one-on-ones, stand-ups, retrospectives and board meetings. Fellow's AI notetaker joins Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams calls to record, transcribe and summarize, and privacy controls let organizations decide which meetings are recorded and who can see transcripts. Action items sync to tools such as Asana, Jira and Slack. There is a free plan with limits, then per-user Team and Business plans that unlock AI notes, longer history and admin controls, plus an Enterprise tier.

Fellow fits managers and organizations that want to improve meeting habits, not just capture transcripts. Solo users who only need a recorder get more for less from Otter, Fireflies or tl;dv, and teams already standardized on Notion or Confluence may find the agenda features overlap with what they have. Compared with Fathom or Fireflies, Fellow is stronger on pre-meeting preparation, one-on-one workflows and governance, while the pure notetakers are cheaper for transcription alone. Its value depends on the whole team adopting it, so rollout matters.

Supernormal is an AI meeting notetaker founded in 2020 by Colin Treseler, a former product manager at Meta and Klarna, and Fabian Perez, a former design lead at GitHub and Splice. It began as a bot that joined calls and wrote notes; it has since moved to a desktop app that records meetings from your computer's audio, so no bot appears in the participant list.

The Mac and Windows app captures Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and Slack huddles, plus in-person conversations and voice notes, and opens a transcript, summary and action items in the web app. Meetings can be grouped into projects, and you can prompt across them to draft follow-up emails, briefs, proposals, slides, spreadsheets and images. An MCP connection exposes this context to other AI tools. Since April 2026 pricing is credit-based: Free gives 15 credits a month, and Team and Business are flat monthly prices with unlimited seats sharing a credit pool.

It suits small teams and agencies that want notes plus finished deliverables without a visible bot. Granola is the closest bot-free rival with a stronger note editor; Otter and Fathom offer more generous transcription and CRM syncing; Fireflies has more integrations.

The switch from per-seat plans to shared credits is the key buying detail. Supernormal does not publish how many credits each task uses, so a busy team can burn through 50 credits quickly. Track usage on the billing page for a few weeks before committing to annual billing.
