meetbot vs Recall.ai.

Recall.ai built the category — meeting-bot-as-a-service — and the API surface they shipped is the one most of this market now copies. They have thousands of customers and public enterprise logos. We ship a Recall-style compatibility endpoint on purpose so you can test the switch in an afternoon, and then we charge you less per bot-hour. Recall's hosted API is proprietary. Our SDK + samples are MIT — clone, fork, ship, and check each third-party sample repo's LICENSE before reusing code. Below: every spec line, the math at three usage points, and a section dedicated to where they're still the better choice.

01 · 요약

짧게 말하면.

Recall.ai을(를) 사용해야 할 때…

  • →You need Slack Huddles or GoTo coverage today.
  • →You need a SOC 2 Type 2 report and a HIPAA BAA in the contract on day one.
  • →You're indifferent to license — a proprietary hosted API is fine — and price is not a buying criterion.
  • →You need a mature Desktop Recording SDK today.

meetbot을 사용해야 할 때…

  • →Your unit economics break above $0.40/hr on the bot-hour — most LLM-on-meeting products do.
  • →Your customers ask where the data lives, and you'd like to answer eu-central-1.
  • →You may want to read the SDK + sample source under MIT and fork it without license-clause anxiety.
  • →You want second-metered pricing on the bot-hour, automatic volume discounts, and no storage line. Transcription is BYOK today — pipe per-speaker audio into Whisper/Deepgram/AssemblyAI on your own key (zero meetbot fee on that leg) until our hosted Whisper ships Q3.

03 · 가격 시나리오

계산, 세 가지 방식.

세 가지 사용 지점: 취미가, 스타트업, 규모 있는 회사. 셀별 공식 가시화 — 스프레드시트에 복사하고 자신의 숫자를 넣으세요.

시나리오 1

Hobbyist · 10 hr / mo

월 10시간의 회의 녹화.

meetbot
10 hr × $0.30 = $3.00 (bot-hour only)
$3.00/월
Recall.ai
10 hr × ($0.50 + $0.15 + $0.05) = $7.00
$7.00/월

Today: meetbot only bills the bot-hour; transcription (if you want it) is BYOK — pipe per-speaker audio into Whisper/Deepgram/AssemblyAI on your own key. Both providers' signup credits are one-time, so this returning-customer comparison does not subtract either credit.

시나리오 2

Startup · 1,000 hr / mo

월 1,000시간의 회의 녹화.

meetbot
1,000 hr × $0.30 = $300 (bot-hour) + your transcription bill (BYOK)
$300+/월
Recall.ai
1,000 hr × ($0.50 + $0.15 + $0.05) = $700.00
$700/월

$400/mo of saved bot-hour/storage spend at this scale — minus whatever your transcription provider charges. Whisper-large-v3 self-hosted on a Hetzner GPU box (~$200/mo for an RTX 4090) handles ~20 concurrent realtime streams; Deepgram pay-go is around $0.0043/min ≈ $0.26/hr. Real bundled cost on meetbot today: roughly $300 + $200–260 = $500–560/mo. At GA (hosted Whisper Q3 2026): $400/mo flat.

시나리오 3

Scale · 50,000 hr / mo

월 50,000시간의 회의 녹화.

meetbot
1,000 hr × $0.30 + 9,000 hr × $0.25 + 40,000 hr × $0.20 = $10,550 (bot-hour) + transcription
$10,550+/월
Recall.ai
50,000 hr × ($0.50 + $0.15 + $0.05) = $35,000.00
$35,000/월

At this scale you self-host Whisper-large-v3 on dedicated GPU infra (a couple of $200–400/mo Hetzner GPU boxes serve thousands of concurrent streams) and the transcription leg approaches its hardware floor. Recall negotiates volume discounts at this scale; our published self-serve rate already drops to $0.20/hr above 10k hr/mo.

04 · 그들이 이기는 곳

Recall.ai이(가) 더 나은 선택인 영역.

이 섹션을 포함하는 이유는 그 대안 — 어디서나 우리가 이긴다고 척하는 것 — 이 부정직하고, 부정직한 비교 페이지가 대부분 읽을 가치가 없는 이유이기 때문입니다.

  • 01Desktop SDK and some bot platforms. Recall ships a desktop SDK and bot support for Slack Huddles and GoTo today. We cover Webex/Whereby/Jitsi/Discord in our API surface, but the battle-tested high-volume path is still younger.
  • 02Compliance paper. Recall has SOC 2 Type 2, ISO 27001, and signs HIPAA BAAs on the enterprise tier. We have no certifications today; SOC 2 Type 1 is on our M5 roadmap, no BAA template yet. Procurement will ask about this.
  • 03Multi-region residency. Recall offers US, EU, and JP regions; meetbot is eu-central-1 (Falkenstein) only until first US enterprise asks for a region. APJ residency requirements are a hard miss for us today.
  • 04Hosted transcription, today. Recall bills $0.15/hr for transcription bundled with the bot. We don't ship transcription today — BYOK only (per-speaker audio piped into your Whisper/Deepgram/AssemblyAI key, zero meetbot fee on that leg). Our hosted Whisper option ships Q3 2026.
  • 05Mobile SDK roadmap visibility. Recall's public product page says Mobile Recording SDK is launching soon; ours ships Q3 2026 (iOS first). If mobile is the product center, both need verification before purchase.
  • 06Volume references. They have thousands of customers and public enterprise logos — HubSpot, Calendly, ClickUp et al. — which is a real signal in procurement reviews. We have zero paying customers (we're pre-launch); that's earlier-stage risk.
  • 07OAuth pool depth. Their hosted OAuth credential management for Zoom/Google/Teams is more battle-tested. We ship the same model in M3 but the surface is younger.

  • 01Lower bot-hour price ($0.30/hr vs $0.50/hr recording). At GA — once our hosted Whisper transcription lands Q3 — the bundled comparison becomes $0.40/hr (us) vs $0.70/hr (them with 30-day storage); today, BYOK transcription on per-speaker audio nets you the same gap with zero meetbot fee on the transcription leg.

  • 02MIT-licensed TypeScript and Python SDKs + sample apps (Go and Rust SDKs are planned). Fork them, embed them in dual-licensed products, ship them inside closed-source apps. No ELv2, no BUSL, and a clear MIT grant for our SDK and sample code.

07 · FAQ

실제로 받는 질문.

Q.How does the price actually compare?
Today: $0.30/hr (us, bot-hour only) vs $0.50/hr (Recall, recording only). Bundled with transcription + 30-day storage Recall is $0.70/hr; we don't bundle transcription today (BYOK on per-speaker audio is free of meetbot fees, you pay your provider directly). Once our hosted Whisper ships Q3 2026 the apples-to-apples bundled comparison becomes $0.40/hr (us) vs $0.70/hr (them with 30-day storage). The pricing scenarios above show today's math; the calculator at /pricing lets you plug in your own assumptions.
Q.How long does the migration actually take?
Most teams can smoke-test in an afternoon. The HTTP shape is intentionally familiar — we ship POST /api/v1/bot as a Recall-style create-bot shim for common snake_case payloads, then translate internally to POST /api/v1/jobs. Webhook payloads are close, but you should still run your parser against our fixture before switching production traffic.
Q.What if I need Webex or Slack Huddles?
Webex is in our API surface now, but if you need Slack Huddles or GoTo, stay on Recall today. Discord is our wedge in the opposite direction: it uses the native Discord voice gateway instead of browser automation.
Q.Do you sign a BAA?
No. We have no BAA template today, no SOC 2, no HIPAA posture. SOC 2 Type 1 is on the M5 roadmap; the BAA template would follow that audit. If you have a HIPAA-bound deployment timeline, this is a real reason to stay on Recall today and re-evaluate us once those land.
Q.Where is the data physically stored?
Bot containers run on Hetzner Falkenstein (DE). Postgres + recording manifests live on the same host. The recording media itself goes to whatever S3-compatible bucket you nominate — if you point that at AWS Frankfurt, the entire pipeline stays in EU borders. If you point it at AWS us-east-1, only that final hop leaves the EU. We can send a DPA on request (template-stage, not a published certified document).
Q.What about the Recall.ai SLA?
Recall offers a 99.9% SLA on their enterprise tier. We don't publish an uptime number or a contractual SLA — we will once status.meetbot.dev is up with real history. If contractual uptime is a buying criterion today, that's a real reason to stay on Recall.
Q.How open is the source, exactly?
The TypeScript and Python SDKs, CLI, sample apps, and OpenAPI spec are MIT — clone, fork, ship. The bot binary itself stays closed in our monorepo (apps/bot) — the same Vercel/Next.js shape. We may publish a source-available bot in M5 under a permissive license; not committed yet. By contrast, Recall's hosted API is proprietary; check each public sample repo's LICENSE before reusing its code.
