Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a free plan, and what does it include?

Yes. Fathom offers a free-forever individual plan that includes unlimited meeting recordings, instant AI call summaries, transcription, clips, playlists, and search across your call history — with no time limit.

What video conferencing platforms does Fathom support?

Fathom works with Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams. It also integrates with Gmail for scheduling context.

What tools does Fathom integrate with?

Fathom syncs with Salesforce, HubSpot, Slack, Notion, Asana, and Zapier. It also connects with ChatGPT and Claude for deeper analysis of meeting content.

What is the difference between the individual and team plans?

Individual plans focus on personal productivity — transcription, AI summaries, and action items. Team plans add collaborative features like shared call libraries, keyword alerts, CRM field sync, Deal View, AI Scorecards, and coaching metrics — designed for revenue and customer-facing teams.

What is bot-free capture and when should I use it?

Bot-free capture lets Fathom record and transcribe your meetings without a visible recording bot joining the call. It's useful when participants are sensitive to bots, or when meeting policies discourage third-party bots from entering the room.
