I have a tough time taking notes in meetings that I am super engaged in, so this is an absolute lifesaver for me. I love that I can easily look back in meetings and that it automatically adds to my zoom calls Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Wish the free version allowed basic reports for more than five meetings per month because I need this badly but bosses won't pay - also shouldn't this be included in our zoom package as an essential app? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I go to several meetings a day and have a hard time finding time to write notes and action items. Read is my superhuman tool -- it gives me the freedom and flexibility to pay attention and still get everything I need without wasting time later. There are some other cool features in beta that I've been excited to try too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm extremely happy with the service and look forward to seeing the new features underway. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No upsides. The software's design is designed to get other attendees hooked and to create an account Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Read.ai seems to embed intself into people's calendars and meetings. once a user receives a read.ai helpful report from a meeting they have joined, they are guided through a very easy set of signup steps.
it's true, that the fine-print, and terms and conditions, make read.ai's behaviours clear, but who really reads the terms and conditions? Their marketing and product sign-up practice are the worst I have seen.
Steer clear. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like most about Read is its ability to automate Zoom meeting transcriptions. Real-time transcriptions and its smart scheduling features are invaluable in streamlining communication and ensuring meetings are more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm just using this integration recently, so it's totally new to me. Perhaps a possible downside of Read could be its dependence on integration with very specific platforms like Zoom. I haven't used it outside of Zoom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Features of Read like automatic transcription, summarization, and meeting scheduling optimization seem particularly promising for enhancing efficiency and reducing meeting fatigue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Read has the potential to significantly improve meeting efficiency. Read has some potential challenges which I dislike such as transcription accuracy or integration issues. Other things which I dislike are limited customization options, technical issues, high costs, or inadequate support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The ability to see the notes after the meeting was very helpful. The text and audio made it much easier to go back and review the topics covered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I had a very difficult time trying to download the files from the website. Additionally, the interface left a lot to be desired. It was nearly impossible it seemed to be able to watch the screen recording while trying to follow along on another application at the same time. The screen was either too small (When viewing in the web browser) or took over the entire screen making you unable to continue to work when in full screen mode, and I was unable to find an inbetween.

Should have some credits to see some videos without pay the higger plan Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

read.ai introduced me into new ways of making my online meetings very valuable and productive by using the modernized AI technology to summarize meeting sessions. I love everything about the meeting summaries, how simplified they are and how they capture all the important details that were discussed during the meeting. I find it very magical how read.ai saves the entire meeting session and not just that, i get to easily play back the recordings which allows me to rewatch abd listen to the highlight moments of the meeting. read.ai also offers interesting meeting reports which clearly indicate the performance of the meeting across all aspects from engagements, clarity in communication and so on and i usually use the performance metrics to help improve on the next meetings. read.ai does more to me than just helping me have effective meeting experience. It offers some coaching materials which help me to learn and acquire skills on how to facilitate better meetings as the host as well as the presenter. Getting to use the smart meeting scheduling tool in read.ai has helped me gain an accurate experience in scheduling my meetings. With the scheduler, am able to identify the most productive time and date suitable for having the meetings and this help ensure that i don't have any other engagements other than the meeting.

In read.ai, everything is equally useful and i have not seen any feature that is less useful. I have had a super amazing experience with read.ai with no issues at all. Nothing to dislike about it for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- Despite being relatively new, it has a surprising result, and although it has much to improve, the level of automatic transcription it has provides many positive surprises.
- The summaries it presents automatically are exceptionally good and well done despite being made by AI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- It still has a lot to improve, but it's on a very good path, let's remember that it is an AI that performs the work automatically.
- The cost of the full version is somewhat high for its beginnings, but the trial would be worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.


We never knew virtual meetings summarization was a possible thing up until we started using read.ai. The main reason we have been having very successful meetings with read.ai is because of the meeting summaries that it offers as they allows us to focus on the main meetings agenda and get to understand the major points that were raised during the meeting. read.ai helps us to get things done in online meetings by helping us take charge of our meetings through highlighting and focusing on the most important parts of the meeting. This way we get to meet the needs that prompted us to schedule and attend the meetings and achieve the goals we had for the meetings. It provides us with very intelligent analytical tools that allows us to understand the performance of the meeting based on the reactions of the audience.
read.ai improves the security of our virtual meetings allowing us to communicate safely and privately. It also assist us in gaining precision and accuracy when scheduling our meetings by use of artificial intelligence and this helps eliminate any human errors that might arise when scheduling like double scheduling. We also benefit alot from the meeting recordings that read.ai offers as they allow us to playback and revisit our meeting sessions in future for referencing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It was so easy to learn and understand how to make the best use of read.ai without any problems. read.ai has a user-friendly interface with a simple design making it easy to use. We are yet to experience any negative experience with read.ai and so there has been nothing to dislike about it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
