Details

Fathom records your Zoom/Meet calls and spits out summaries, action items, and highlights. Founded by Richard White (who built UserVoice). The free tier is surprisingly good: most solopreneurs won’t need to pay. #1 AI notetaker on G2.

Noko (formerly Freckle) is time tracking that doesn’t suck. Built by Amy Hoy who bootstrapped it to over $1M ARR while also running 30x500 and Stacking the Bricks. The UX is genuinely pleasant, which matters when you need people to actually log their time.
