Fathom, the AI meeting partner that helps teams capture, search, and act on what happens in meetings, today announced a set of updates that expand the platform to give more choice on how, where, and when its users capture meetings and act on those insights. The updates include a new UI, bot-free capture options, live summaries during meetings, an iOS mobile app, and the Ask Fathom conversational search now spanning all captured calls.
Fathom introduced a more flexible, bot-free capture experience at a time when bot fatigue is growing and users want the freedom to dictate exactly how each of their meetings is captured. Users can now choose, meeting by meeting, between bot-free transcription, bot-free audio capture, or full video capture with the bot, all while keeping basic capabilities like summarization with action items. The bot-free capture also takes a privacy-forward, quality-focused approach to notetaking, with core features such as speaker attribution and mute-acknowledgement.
Additionally, Fathom’s public API and MCP integrations now allow individuals, teams, and developers to bring Fathom’s meeting intelligence directly into the tools and workflows they already use, including LLMs, CRMs, AI agents, and custom pipelines. This connects the highest quality transcripts and meeting summaries with turnkey integrations with Claude, ChatGPT, and many more platforms. This expansion of how users can operationalize meeting data beyond Fathom itself reflects the company’s goal of offering the most customizable AI meeting intelligence platform on the market – one where users decide how their meeting knowledge gets used, not the other way around.
Fathom’s soon-to-be-released iOS app significantly expands user options, moving the platform from a desktop-only app to one that is available anywhere, anytime, to capture more types of conversations – unlocking in-person notetaking at a time when work is increasingly returning to office. Users can also query across calls, and review on the go with in-app playback support.
Among these features, a notable Fathom update is a redesigned desktop experience, spanning both in-meeting and post-meeting workflows. Live summaries now appear during meetings, and personal notes captured in the scratchpad are incorporated directly into summaries.
“We set out to give people the highest quality, most extensible solution, and that holds true across every plan. From the most generous free tier in the market – including API and MCP access, unlimited meeting captures – to business plans packed with competitive features at a fraction of the cost,” said Richard White, founder and CEO of Fathom. “The combination of high value, high quality, and deep customization is ultimately the standard every team deserves. Great software should work for everyone, and this is another big step towards delivering on it. We’re continuing to build toward that, including local export of your call data in open formats – accessible to any CLI, agent, or tool you choose, not locked inside anyone’s software.”
As each individual has more control over how they record, teams are getting more powerful tools as well. Among these, one of the most significant updates is the expansion of Ask Fathom from single meetings to a user’s entire meeting library. The AI interface allows users to synthesize, recall, and take action across meetings, with answers linked to citations and the exact moment in the transcript. This cuts the countless hours of review, synthesis, and research required to answer key questions like “What objections are coming up most recently across our sales calls?” and “What feature requests are coming up most from our customers?” down to seconds.
“The real value of meetings isn’t the notes – it’s the knowledge inside them,” White added. “Two years ago, the best these tools could do was generate a strong summary for one meeting. The frontier has changed. Teams now have the ability to ask questions about every meeting in an organization and get answers instantly. That’s the shift we’re focused on: turning meetings from isolated artifacts into usable knowledge that helps teams move faster. But none of that is possible without an exceptionally accurate foundation – which is why I’m so proud of the team holding a high bar, resulting in Fathom being the first to deliver full speaker diarization and attribution without requiring a bot in the room.”
The product updates build on Fathom’s momentum as the market leader in AI-powered meeting intelligence and platform of choice for organizations ranging from individual consultants to Fortune 500 companies. It follows a series of industry-wide honors for Fathom, which recently earned a spot on G2’s 2026 Best Global Software Companies list, was named HubSpot’s Most Used App of the Year for 2025, and was included in Business Insider’s 30 early-stage startups in 2026 most likely to become tech’s next unicorns.
