Littlebird vs Fellow: which one connects your meetings to your work?

Littlebird and Fellow both take good meeting notes, but they do different things with them. Fellow keeps notes inside a secure meeting platform, with agendas, action items, and admin controls, and its AI works from your meetings. Littlebird connects every meeting to a running memory of your work, including your screen, your docs, and earlier conversations, so your notes stay useful long after the call.

The short version

Littlebird is the better pick: your meeting notes join a memory of everything you work on instead of a separate archive. Fellow only wins if all your company needs is one governed platform for shared agendas and meeting records.

The difference is siloed notes versus a memory

Prep from all your work

Before a call, Littlebird pulls in your emails, earlier meetings, and project work. Fellow's briefs carry forward open items from your previous meetings.

Memory beyond the call

Fellow's AI works from your meetings and the files you upload. Littlebird also learns from the window you are working in, so you can ask about a project or a client, not just a call.

Follow-ups with context

Ask Littlebird for the follow-up and it drafts from the call and the work around it, like the email thread and the doc you edited afterward.

Where each one wins

Where Fellow is genuinely strong

It runs the meeting, not just the notes. Shared agendas, 500+ templates, 1:1s, and action items that carry forward give managers and teams one place to plan and follow through.

Its admin and compliance controls suit regulated companies, from SOC 2 Type II to HIPAA support on Enterprise, and it syncs notes to Salesforce, HubSpot, and task tools. What it cannot see is the work you do between meetings.

Where Littlebird is different

Meeting Notes that write themselves, without a bot joining your calls

Chat that answers questions across everything you have worked on, not just one meeting

Routines that surface what matters without you asking

Hover, a floating chat window over whatever you are looking at (macOS only)

An MCP server on every paid plan, so your memory works inside tools like Claude

On privacy: Littlebird runs on your computer and you control what it sees. Data is encrypted with AES-256 at rest and in transit, stored on AWS, never used to train models, and never sold. Littlebird is SOC 2 Type II certified with HIPAA available, and you can delete your data at any time. Details at trust.littlebird.ai and littlebird.ai/privacy.

Common questions

Is Fellow free?

There is a Free plan, but it includes 5 AI notes and 5 AI recordings per person in total. Paid plans are Team at $7, Business at $15, and Enterprise at $25 per user per month billed annually, and Solo is $19 a month for one person, as of October 2026. Littlebird Basic is free and includes Meeting Notes.

Does Fellow join meetings as a bot?

It can. Fellow's Note Taker joins Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams calls as a visible participant, and its desktop and mobile apps can also record without a bot. Littlebird never joins a call. It captures audio from your own computer, so it works with any meeting app and there is nothing for other participants to see.

Which is better for meeting notes, Littlebird or Fellow?

Littlebird, for most people. Both write solid summaries and action items, but Littlebird connects each meeting to your screen, documents, and every earlier conversation, so you can ask about a client across months of work. Fellow is the better fit if your company wants shared agendas and one governed record of every meeting.

Can my whole team use Littlebird?

Yes. Littlebird for Teams puts every seat on one bill, with admin controls and usage analytics that never show the contents of anyone's chats, notes, or memory. Each person gets a private assistant instead of a shared meeting record. Plans start at $17 per seat per month, with details at littlebird.ai/pricing.

Can I use Littlebird and Fellow together?

You can. If your company runs meetings in Fellow, Littlebird still remembers the work around them. If you are picking one for yourself, Littlebird gives you the notes and the context in one place.
