Comparison Overview
Why Teams are Switching from Google Gemini to Fellow for AI Meeting Notes
Gemini's "Take Notes for Me" covers the basics inside Google Meet; Fellow works wherever you meet, and has security features that Gemini does not offer.
Centralized AI Meeting Notes
Notes that don't live in three different places
Gemini splits every meeting into a separate summary, transcript, and recording, dropped into Google Drive with no way to jump from a line in the summary to the matching moment in the transcript or recording. Fellow keeps the recording, transcript, and notes tied together in one interface, and Ask Fellow can pull answers across every meeting you've ever had, not just the one you just left.

Security & Compliance
Security features Gemini doesn't have
If something sensitive gets said on a Gemini call, your options are limited: edit the transcript (the change still lives in the document's history) or delete the recording outright. Fellow lets you retroactively redact a passage so it's permanently removed from the recording, transcript, and summary alike. Fellow is also SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR, and CCPA compliant, never trains AI on your meeting data, supports password-protected meeting recaps, offers a Compliance Portal and Super Admin API, and lets admins set recording rules and restrictions. This makes Fellow a fit for regulated environments like private equity, hedge funds, venture capital, and investment banking.

AI Meeting Agent & Integrations
An assistant that remembers every meeting and connects with your favorite tools
Gemini's notetaker stops the moment the call ends: no pre-meeting brief, no agenda, and a follow-up email that's just a set of file links. Ask Fellow works before, during, and after every meeting: it briefs you on what was covered last time, helps create the agenda, and can answer questions or write follow-ups. Gemini offers none of that; it doesn't integrate with CRMs, AI chatbots (like Claude, ChatGPT, or Cursor), or project management tools at all.
