  • Google is redirecting users to Google AI Studio or Google Antigravity instead
  • Advanced features (AskFred, Sentiment Analysis, several AI Apps) are gated behind AI credits that can run out mid-month

  • Users report occasional calendar-sync issues and inconsistent accuracy with accents or overlapping speech
  • A bot joining every call can feel intrusive to external meeting participants

Firebase Studio was Google's agentic, cloud-based development environment for building and shipping full-stack AI apps — APIs, backends, frontends and mobile — from the browser, with a generous free tier (3 workspaces, no seat fees). As of June 22, 2026, Google disabled new workspace creation and signups, and the platform is scheduled to fully sunset on March 22, 2027, with existing users directed to migrate to Google AI Studio or Google Antigravity. This listing is kept for accurate historical and migration-search context, not as an active recommendation.

Read the full Fireflies.ai review

Fireflies.ai is an AI meeting assistant used across 1M+ companies. Its notetaker bot, Fred, joins Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams and 10+ other platforms — or captures audio via the Chrome extension, mobile app, desktop app, dialers like Aircall and RingCentral, or a direct file upload — and turns every call into a searchable transcript with AI summaries and action items. AskFred lets you ask natural-language questions across your entire meeting history, and Live Assist provides real-time suggestions and coaching during a call itself. Conversation intelligence (speaker talk-time, sentiment analysis, topic trackers) gives managers visibility into how meetings actually go, and 200+ role-specific AI Skills automate follow-ups for sales, recruiting, marketing, engineering and more. A new Fireflies MCP Server brings meeting insights directly into Claude, ChatGPT and other AI tools. Deep integrations (5+ CRMs, 9+ project-management tools, Slack, ATS platforms) and SOC 2/GDPR/HIPAA compliance round it out for teams that live in meetings.
