Can Fathom record in-person meetings?
Not from your computer: Fathom's help page says it is designed for online meetings on Zoom, Google Meet and Microsoft Teams, that in-person meetings are not supported, and that in-person capture is planned for its iOS app. Its listed platforms are those three, so a supplier call on Lark or a phone on speaker are outside it as well. Audiee treats a meeting as anything you can hear: it auto-detects Zoom, Meet, Teams and Lark, and Ctrl+M starts a recording for a conference room, a coffee-shop interview or a call on speaker, using the Mac's microphone. The result is the same transcript, summary and action items, filed into the knowledge base as Markdown on your Mac. For in-person meetings the practical limit is microphone reach, so sit near the people who matter. Three meeting hours a month are free. Try it in your next stand-up with the laptop open.
