Read AI adds a layer most notetakers skip: it measures how meetings go. Each meeting report includes a summary, topics, action items and key questions, plus a personal coaching section with talking speed, filler words and other metrics. Live notes and metrics appear inside Zoom, Teams and Google Meet while the call runs. Search reaches beyond meetings into email and messages, and paid plans include premium integrations such as Notion, Salesforce, HubSpot, Jira, Confluence and Zapier. The free plan allows 5 meeting transcripts per month and one hour per meeting. Pro costs $15 per user per month billed annually with unlimited transcripts and four hour meetings. Audio and video playback start on Enterprise at $22.50 per user billed annually, and Enterprise+ adds HIPAA, SAML, SCIM and EU or Canadian hosting. The value score is lower because recordings and playback cost more here than with Fathom or tl;dv.
