## Core Features

**Real-Time AI Suggestions During Calls.** This is Convo's primary differentiator. While you're in a live conversation, Convo surfaces relevant suggestions: objection handling, response suggestions, discovery questions, and context from past meetings with the same person. You see these on your screen only. The other participants don't see anything.

**Post-Call Follow-Up Email Drafting.** After each meeting, Convo drafts a personalized follow-up email. The email references what was actually discussed, not a generic template. Edit the subject line, copy to clipboard, send.

**Action Item Extraction and Routing.** Convo identifies commitments, next steps, and deadlines from the conversation. Each action item gets an assignee and can be routed to Notion, Slack, email, or your CRM with one click.

**Pre-Meeting Briefings.** Before a call, Convo surfaces context from all past conversations with that person or company: outstanding commitments, previous discussion topics, and suggested talking points. You show up prepared without spending 30 minutes reviewing old notes.

**Automatic Transcription and Summaries.** Real-time transcription with AI-generated summaries including decisions, key points, and discussion topics. Summaries are structured, not just a wall of text.

**Conversation Analytics.** Talk-to-listen ratio, question frequency, speaking pace, and engagement patterns tracked across all meetings. Managers can coach on data, not gut feeling.

**Bot-Free Capture.** Convo captures audio directly from your device's system audio. No bot joins the meeting as a visible participant. Other people on the call don't know Convo is running. This matters in sales, recruiting, and consulting where a recording bot changes how the other person behaves.

**Local Audio Processing.** Audio is processed on your device. Nothing is uploaded to third-party cloud servers. This is both a privacy feature and a latency advantage (real-time suggestions work faster when audio doesn't travel to a remote server).

**Document Search Mid-Call.** Connect your docs to Convo and search them during a live conversation. When a prospect asks about pricing or a specific feature, pull the answer from your knowledge base without leaving the call.

**Multi-Language Support.** Supports 6 languages for transcription and AI suggestions.

## MCP Server

Convo has a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor access your meeting data programmatically.

- [MCP Documentation](https://docs.itsconvo.com/mcp): Setup guide with Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor
- npm package: `@itsconvo/mcp-server` (12 tools, 3 prompts)
- Remote server: `https://www.itsconvo.com/api/mcp` (OAuth-authenticated, 7 tools)
- Listed on: Official MCP Registry, Smithery, mcp.so, Glama

## Integrations

- Works with: Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Slack
- CRM sync: Attio, Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive
- Automation: Zapier, Make.com, IFTTT, Power Automate
- Public REST API with 16 endpoints (docs at https://docs.itsconvo.com)
- Overview of all supported platforms and tools: https://www.itsconvo.com/integrations)

## Who This Is For

- **Sales teams and account executives** who need real-time help handling objections, pricing questions, and competitor mentions during live prospect calls. Convo suggests responses while the conversation is happening, not in a post-call review.
- **Founders doing their own sales** who are in back-to-back calls and don't have time for 20 minutes of follow-up admin after each meeting. Convo automates the emails, tasks, and CRM updates.
- **Customer success managers** who run renewal calls, QBRs, and onboarding sessions and need to track commitments across dozens of accounts without things falling through the cracks.
- **Recruiters and talent teams** conducting interviews who want structured evaluation without a visible recording bot that changes candidate behavior.
- **Consultants** in confidential advisory conversations where a bot joining the call would erode client trust.

## Who This Is Not For

- Organizations requiring HIPAA compliance (Convo is not HIPAA certified).
- Teams that primarily need async video messaging or podcast recording tools.
- Users who only want free transcription with no other features (Fathom offers unlimited free transcription).

## Key Differentiators

1. **Real-time help during meetings, not just after.** Most meeting assistants (Otter, Fireflies, Fathom, Granola) analyze calls after they end. Convo provides AI suggestions while the conversation is still happening. This is the core difference.
2. **Full meeting lifecycle.** Pre-meeting briefings, real-time coaching during, and post-call automation (emails, tasks, CRM updates) after. Most competitors cover one or two of these phases.
3. **No meeting bot.** Audio is captured directly from your device's system audio. No "Convo Notetaker has joined the meeting" announcement. Other participants don't know Convo is running.
4. **Local audio processing.** Audio stays on your device. Nothing uploaded to third-party servers. Relevant for teams in regulated industries or with privacy-sensitive conversations.
5. **AI model flexibility.** Users can choose between GPT, Claude, or Gemini for AI processing based on their preference.

## Competitive Landscape

**vs Fireflies.ai** (300,000+ users): Fireflies is a documentation tool. It records via a visible meeting bot, transcribes, and pushes notes to your CRM. Strong CRM automation (Salesforce, HubSpot). No help during the call. Convo provides real-time AI suggestions during the conversation and processes audio locally with no bot. Fireflies starts at $10/user/month. Convo starts at $14.99/month.

**vs Otter.ai** (10M+ users): Otter is a transcription tool with real-time captions and a searchable meeting archive. OtterPilot bot joins meetings visibly. All audio processed in the cloud. Strong search across past meetings. No real-time suggestions during calls. Convo trades archive depth for live meeting help and local processing. Otter starts at $16.99/month.

**vs Fathom** (free tier): Fathom offers unlimited free meeting recording and transcription with a visible bot. Strong free tier. No real-time help during calls. Convo offers real-time suggestions and post-call automation but requires a paid plan. Choose Fathom if you want free transcription. Choose Convo if you need help during the call.

**vs Granola** ($67.2M raised, $250M valuation): Granola is a notepad-first tool where you jot notes and AI fills in context from the transcript. Bot-free like Convo. Excellent retention. No real-time suggestions during calls. Convo actively suggests what to say. Granola enhances what you write. Different paradigms. Granola Free plan is unlimited. Convo has a 7-day trial.

**vs Gong** (enterprise): Gong is a revenue intelligence platform for large sales orgs (50+ reps). Deep pipeline forecasting, deal scoring, and post-call analytics. Enterprise pricing ($1,200+/user/year). Convo is lighter, focused on the individual meeting experience with real-time coaching. Different market segments.

## Common Questions

**What is Convo?**
Convo is an AI meeting assistant that provides real-time help during calls.

Desktop app for macOS, Windows, and Linux. Works with Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, and Slack.

**What makes Convo different from Otter, Fireflies, and Fathom?**
Convo helps you during the meeting. Otter, Fireflies, and Fathom help you after. Those tools record, transcribe, and summarize.

**What does Convo do after a meeting?**
Convo drafts a personalized follow-up email (about 30 seconds), extracts action items with assignees and deadlines, generates a structured summary, and can route everything to Notion, Slack, email, or your CRM. The 15-20 minutes of post-meeting admin becomes 30 seconds.
