COMPARISON

Rippit vs. Fireflies for Conversation Analysis and Agents (2026): Differences, Pricing, and When to Use Both

Short answer: Fireflies is an AI assistant for meetings that transcribes, summarizes, searches and analyzes your team's conversations.[1]

Rippit is built for one job: analyzing and acting on every customer conversation at scale.[2] It reads every conversation customers have with your company, across sales, support, success and chatbots, turns what it finds into structured data,[3] and runs AI agents that monitor, analyze and act on that data.[2] Any team can define a new field in plain English, combine it with others and keep drilling until it reaches the root cause.[4]

Many teams use both: they keep Fireflies for meeting notes and add Rippit to ask questions across the whole customer journey.[5] Rippit has a free plan.[6] Fireflies has a free plan too, with paid plans priced per seat.[7]

Where Fireflies and Rippit overlap is in analysis you build on top of meeting conversations - Rippit is better suited to sit across multiple data sources when you have conversation data that also lives outside of Fireflies. A direct integration to Fireflies is planned.

01 · THE DIFFERENCE

What's the difference between Rippit and Fireflies?

Fireflies helps teams capture, search and share what was said in their meetings. Rippit helps CX, support, product and CS teams understand every conversation a customer has with the company, before and after the sale.

Fireflies calls itself "the #1 AI assistant for your meetings."[1] Its notetaker joins meetings on Zoom, Google Meet, Teams and other platforms,[10] and it transcribes, summarizes and searches each one, with AskFred for questions and AI Skills for structured outputs.[13][8]

Rippit is AI conversation analytics and agents, built for scale.[2] It connects to your helpdesk and conversation tools, analyzes every conversation,[2] and turns what it finds (intent, root cause, sentiment, churn signal, resolution) into fields you can filter, trend and build on.[4] Agents then monitor those fields, analyze them and act on what they find.[2]

Take a customer who hears in a sales call that migration takes a week. Fireflies captures the promise in the meeting transcript. Three months later, that customer filed four tickets about a stalled migration. With sales calls and support tickets in one place, Rippit counts how often a sales promise turns into support friction, which promise causes it, and whether it's getting worse.

02 · SCALE

How does Rippit analyze every conversation?

Rippit runs an AI engine built to label conversations in bulk: AI enriches every conversation[2] and stores the results as structured, queryable data,[3] so analysis and agents can work across all of it. Rippit says it can analyze 10,000 conversations in one minute for under $1.[2] Questions then run on those stored fields across the full dataset, instead of rereading transcripts each time. For open-ended questions no existing field answers, Rippit also runs ad hoc deep dives[3] on up to 10,000 conversations at a time, and what they find can feed new analysis and agents.

That changes three things:

10,000 conversations in one minute for under $1.
Counts are complete
"What share of customer calls mentioned a competitor, and did those accounts file more support tickets afterward?" is computed across every call and ticket in scope.[6]
New questions reach the past
Describe a new field in plain English, and Rippit applies it to past conversations in a single run.[4]
Every number is checkable
Each result is a field on a specific conversation, so you can open the conversations behind any count.[3]
03 · USE BOTH

Can you use Rippit and Fireflies together?

Yes. They do different jobs. You keep Fireflies for meeting notes, summaries and search,[1] and use Rippit to analyze the support tickets, chats and calls it connects to directly,[12] asking questions that span the whole customer journey. Rippit does the mass-scale enrichment, analyzing every conversation in scope[2] and storing each judgment as a field on that conversation,[4] and runs ad hoc deep dives on up to 10,000 conversations at a time for questions no existing field answers yet.[3] A direct integration to Fireflies is planned.

In Rippit's review of 2,345 of its own sales conversations from 2025–2026, prospects who captured meetings in Fireflies wanted to analyze those transcripts alongside support tickets and CRM data, without manual exports.[5]

Using both fixes two common gaps:

  • Meeting notes and support conversations live in different tools. Fireflies holds what was said in meetings, and your helpdesk holds what happened after. Rippit brings the ticket and chat history into the same analysis as your calls.[12]
  • Churn signals show up after the handoff. Checkr combined Rippit with Snowflake operational data to find churn signals.[15] Brex feeds predicted CSAT and churn signals from Rippit into its customer success workflows.[16]

04 · CUSTOM ANALYSIS

How is Rippit's analysis different from AskFred?

Global AskFred answers questions about your meetings. It searches across past meetings, connected apps like Gmail, Slack and HubSpot, and the web, and it can identify trends and recurring topics over time, charged in AI credits per request.[13] AI Skills turn meetings into structured outputs from 200+ templates, after each meeting or on a schedule.[8] Fireflies' conversation intelligence dashboard, on Business and Enterprise, tracks metrics like talk-to-listen ratio, questions asked and sentiment.[9]

Rippit starts from a plain description of the insight you want and adds it as a field across every conversation.[3] One pass tags each conversation across 10+ dimensions, including intent, root cause, sentiment, urgency, churn signal and resolution, and a new category applies to past conversations in a single run.[4] Because each result is stored as a field, you can count it, trend it and filter by it instead of asking again. For cross-journey questions, you define a field like "promise made in sales" or "onboarding friction" once and read it across calls, tickets and chats.

This speed pays off with unplanned questions. When Checkr's CEO asked a late-night question about background check issues in a specific state, the team delivered a detailed report by the next morning.[15]

05 · AI ASSISTANTS

Does Rippit work with Claude?

Yes. Rippit supports MCP, so AI assistants like Claude can query your conversation data directly.[17] You ask in Claude, and Rippit runs the analysis across your full conversation dataset.[18]

This matters at scale. A general-purpose assistant can only hold a limited amount of text in its context window at one time,[19] so on its own it has to sample, split or summarize large sets of conversations. Rippit runs the analysis across every conversation and gives Claude the results, so every number traces back to specific conversations.

Fireflies also offers an official MCP server that connects AI tools like Claude directly to your meeting data.[14] Use Fireflies' server for questions about your meetings, and Rippit's for analysis across every conversation.

06 · PRICING

07 · CUSTOMERS

What do teams use Rippit for?

  • Brex replaced manual QA sampling with AI review of 100% of conversations and found churn risk in 3% of them. It built custom AI classifiers for onboarding friction, product gaps, sentiment and competitors, and feeds predicted CSAT and churn signals into CSM workflows.[16]
  • Checkr broke dissatisfaction down into specific "atomic problems" and combined Rippit with Snowflake operational data to find churn signals. Checkr says its time from insight to action went "from weeks to hours."[15]
  • Klaviyo went from reviewing fewer than 2% of its 600,000+ annual support incidents to analyzing 2.5 million conversations that had never been looked at. It analyzed a full month of product-launch conversations in two hours and uses Rippit for churn pattern analysis and chatbot performance monitoring.[20]
