Circleback connects meeting notes with company history, automatic sharing, and follow-up in other apps." }, { "question": "Which is less expensive, Krisp or Circleback?", "answer": "Krisp: Core $8 and Advanced $15/user/month with annual billing. Circleback: Free; Pro from $15/user/month annually; Business from $25/user/month annually; Enterprise $35/user/month, billed annually. Compare the paid seats, included usage, recording access, and admin features you actually need." }, { "question": "Can Krisp and Circleback record without a bot?", "answer": "Krisp: Bot-free system-audio capture. Circleback: Online meetings with or without a bot; in-person recording too. Check whether your preferred recording method preserves video and speaker labels." }, { "question": "Which is better for a whole company?", "answer": "Compare automatic sharing, permissions, retention, and the defaults admins can enforce. Krisp: Calendar, manager, and recurring-channel auto-sharing. Circleback: Conditional automatic sharing with workspace safeguards." }, { "question": "Can I access and move the full meeting data?", "answer": "Circleback is built for people and AI agents: the complete meeting record available in the product is also available through API, MCP, and CLI. Krisp: MCP with transcripts and tasks, plus webhooks on Core. Compare transcript, export, plan, and retention limits." }, { "question": "Can I start recording in Circleback with one tap or button press?", "answer": "Yes. On desktop, click Record in the detected-meeting prompt. For in-person recording, tap the Circleback Lock Screen widget on your phone (iOS or Android) or Apple Watch complication, or press and hold your configured iPhone Action button. No separate recorder to buy, carry, or charge." }, { "question": "Do all Circleback recordings get the same features?", "answer": "Yes. Online meetings, in-person recordings, and imports all get speaker-labeled transcripts, notes, assigned action items, search, sharing, and automations. To capture a phone call, import an existing call recording; the Circleback mobile app does not record calls directly." }, { "question": "How was this comparison researched?", "answer": "We use first-party pricing pages, product pages, help docs, and release notes for both products. Links appear in each feature comparison and in the Sources section." } ], "variableMeasured": [ "Capture options", "Desktop and mobile", "In-person capture and speaker labels", "Recordings, playback,
