Does Littlebird send a bot into meetings?
No. Littlebird never sends a bot into your calls. During meetings it listens along on your computer to transcribe and summarize, so there is no visible participant, no join request for the host to approve, and nothing for other people on the call to see. You stay present, and the notes take care of themselves.
More detail
Bot-free matters because a visible participant changes the room. With Littlebird there is no extra name in the attendee list and no recorder announcing itself, because nothing joins the call at all.
Because Littlebird listens along on your computer, it also works for any audio or video playing there, not only live calls.
Some meeting tools take the opposite approach and join calls as a visible participant, which suits teams that want the recording to be explicit to everyone. If that is your preference, a bot-based tool is the better fit.
