What Sembly AI is
Sembly is an AI meeting agent. It joins online meetings, records them, and produces notes with tasks, key decisions and a summary, and it can prepare client proposals from what was discussed. The proposal feature is the differentiator: instead of only summarising, it turns a discovery call into a document skeleton. It supports the common meeting platforms, keeps a searchable repository of past meetings, and offers a workspace where team members can ask questions across that archive. The limits are accuracy and control: notes are generated and can misstate a decision, so they need review; proposal output is a draft that a person has to own; and feature depth varies by plan. Recordings are kept in a searchable repository, so a past meeting can be revisited by topic rather than by date. Multilingual support covers the major European languages, which matters for teams running calls across regions.
Best for
- Consultancies turning discovery calls into proposals
- Teams that need decisions recorded, not just summaries
- Reviewing past client conversations from an archive
Not ideal for
- Anyone who needs a permanent free tier
- Decisions that must be captured verbatim without review
Pros
- Proposal drafts come from the actual conversation
- Notes include tasks and decisions, not only a summary
- Archive can be questioned across meetings
Cons
- Generated notes can misstate an outcome
- Free access is trial credits rather than a plan
- Advanced features vary by tier
Pricing in detail
Access starts with a limited free credit allowance for evaluation rather than a recurring free plan. Paid tiers are billed per user per month and raise transcription hours, add proposal generation, shared workspaces and integrations; annual billing lowers the monthly rate. Because the trial is credit-based, it is worth planning which meetings to record so the evaluation covers a representative load.
