What is an AI meeting assistant?
An AI meeting assistant helps you perform better on live calls by listening in real time and suggesting responses, questions, and next steps. SideClue is built for revenue conversations: sales discovery, demos, renewals, and recruiting — not for passive meeting notes after the call ends.
How SideClue differs from meeting bots and notetakers
Tools like Otter, Fireflies, or Gong bots join your meeting as a participant or analyze recordings afterward. SideClue stays on your machine. It captures audio at the OS level, runs a private overlay only you see, and coaches you while the conversation is still happening.
- Does not appear in the participant list on Zoom, Teams, or Meet
- Surfaces objection handling and discovery prompts during the call
- Optional company knowledge base for on-message answers
- Free plan with 5 live minutes per month — no credit card to start
Works with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and more
Because SideClue uses system audio instead of a meeting integration, it works with any desktop calling app — Zoom, Teams, Meet, Webex, phone softphones, and browser-based calls. No plugin or IT setup required.
