Earmark vs Fireflies
Fireflies remembers the meeting. Earmark ships the work.
Fireflies is a powerful team meeting-intelligence platform — transcripts, summaries, AskFred search, and CRM sync. Earmark goes further for product and engineering teams: it captures botlessly and turns the live conversation into PRDs, Linear and Jira tickets, decision logs, and stakeholder updates before the call ends.

Why product teams pick Earmark
Beyond transcripts & summaries
Fireflies gives your team perfect meeting memory — searchable transcripts, summaries, and action items. Earmark drafts the PRD, the tickets, and the recap themselves, so you leave with the deliverable, not a library to dig through.
No bot, no credits to ration
Fireflies' Fred joins your call as a visible bot, and its AI features draw from a shared credit pool. Earmark captures device-side with no bot in the attendee list — and no per-query credits to budget.
Built for how product teams ship
Fireflies leans team and sales intelligence. Earmark generates decision logs, acceptance criteria, and Linear and Jira tickets in the formats product and engineering teams already execute with — while you talk.
Trusted by product teams who ship through conversation
“Earmark transforms planning calls straight into PRDs and JIRA tickets. An indispensable PM tool that saves hours of documentation.”
“No other AI transcription tool gives this level of flexibility. Cuts my admin time by about 75%.”
“Earmark is far beyond a basic meeting tool — task agents build summaries, follow-ups, and deliverables while we’re still talking.”
Questions?
How is Earmark different from Fireflies?
Fireflies is a team meeting-intelligence platform built around transcripts, summaries, search, and CRM sync. Earmark's output is finished work: PRDs, tickets, decision logs, and updates — generated in real time for product and engineering teams.
Does Earmark join my meetings like Fireflies' Fred?
No. Earmark captures device-side by default, so no bot appears in the participant list. Fireflies joins as a bot by default, though it offers no-bot capture through its desktop app.
Can Earmark create Jira and Linear tickets?
Yes — with titles, descriptions, and acceptance criteria, pushed to Linear and Jira before the meeting ends. Fireflies can create tasks in Jira, Asana, and Trello via integrations after the call.
Does Earmark charge AI credits?
No. Earmark doesn't meter your AI usage with a per-query credit pool. Fireflies' AskFred and AI features draw from a shared credit balance that heavy users can exhaust mid-month.
Is my meeting data private?
Yes. Earmark is privacy-first and never trains on your data. Fireflies also states it never uses your data to train AI models — both keep your conversations yours.
