Overview
Tactiq is an AI meeting transcription and note-taking tool for Google Meet, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams. It delivers real-time transcripts, AI summaries, and action items without requiring a bot to join the call.
Our take
Tactiq transcribes meetings in the browser without a bot joining the call, which is a genuinely better design than the alternative — no awkward third participant appearing in the attendee list. The free tier covers light use. Consent obligations remain yours: not having a visible bot makes disclosure easier to forget, not less necessary.
Worth it if
People who want meeting transcripts without a recording bot appearing in the participant list.
Look elsewhere if
Teams needing recordings and full meeting workflows rather than transcripts and summaries.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Do I still need to tell people I'm transcribing?
Yes. Recording and transcription consent rules range from one-party to all-party depending on jurisdiction, and the absence of a visible bot does not change the obligation — it just removes the reminder. Announcing it at the start takes a sentence and removes the question entirely.
Are the summaries reliable enough to skip the transcript?
For orientation, yes; for the record, no. Summaries capture topics well and outcomes poorly — they commonly present a suggestion as a decision or attribute a position to the wrong person. Use the summary to catch up and the transcript to confirm anything that matters, and have a person write down what was actually agreed.
