Fireflies.ai Pricing in 2026: What Every Plan Actually Costs
Fireflies.ai has four plans in 2026: Free ($0), Pro ($10 per seat/month billed annually, or $18 billed monthly), Business ($19 per seat/month annually, or $29 monthly), and Enterprise ($39 per seat/month, annual billing only). Every plan — including Free — includes unlimited transcription, so the price differences come down to storage, video recording, conversation intelligence, and how many monthly AI credits you get.
So yes, Fireflies is free to start, and the Free tier records and transcribes an unlimited number of meetings. The catch is that it stores only 400 minutes of recordings for the whole team and blocks transcript downloads. The advertised paid prices are the annual-billed rates; pay month to month and you’ll pay roughly 40% more. Prices and limits change often, so confirm the current numbers on the official Fireflies pricing page before you buy.
Fireflies.ai plans at a glance
| Plan | Annual (per seat/mo) | Monthly (per seat/mo) | Storage | AI credits/mo | Video recording |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | $0 | 400 min / team | Limited | None |
| Pro | $10 | $18 | 8,000 min / seat | 20 | Up to 2 hrs |

Unlimited transcription and unlimited basic summaries are included on all four tiers. Conversation intelligence and team analytics start on Business.
Free
Free costs nothing and gives you unlimited transcription in 100+ languages plus basic AI summaries. The real limits are storage and export: recordings are capped at 400 minutes across the entire team (not per person), you can’t download or export transcripts, there’s no video recording, and AI credits are limited. It’s enough to evaluate Fireflies or to capture the occasional call, but a working team will hit the storage wall quickly.
Pro — $10/seat/mo annual ($18 monthly)
Pro is the entry paid tier at $10 per seat per month on an annual plan, or $18 if you pay monthly. You get 8,000 minutes of storage per seat, transcript downloads, video recording up to 2 hours per meeting, and 20 AI credits per month. This is the plan most solo users and small teams land on, but note the AI credits — they’re the part of Fireflies pricing that trips people up (more below).
Business — $19/seat/mo annual ($29 monthly)
Business, the plan Fireflies flags as most popular, runs $19 per seat/month annually or $29 monthly. It adds unlimited storage, conversation intelligence and team analytics, video recording up to 3 hours, and bumps you to 30 AI credits per month. The jump from Pro to Business is mostly about analytics and removing the storage cap, not about more raw transcription.
Enterprise — $39/seat/mo, annual only
Enterprise is $39 per seat per month and is only sold on annual billing. It carries everything in Business plus 50 AI credits/month, video recording up to 4 hours, and the compliance and admin features larger orgs need: SSO, SCIM provisioning, audit logs, HIPAA compliance, and a dedicated account manager.
The gotchas worth knowing before you buy
AI credits, not unlimited AI. Fireflies markets “unlimited summaries,” and basic summaries are indeed uncapped. But its most useful AI features — AskFred, advanced summaries, action-item extraction, and highlights — run on a monthly credit allowance (20 on Pro, 30 on Business, 50 on Enterprise). Hit the cap and those features pause until the next month or you buy more at roughly $0.10 each. Heavy users report paying $15–50/month above the sticker price in overages, so a “$10/seat” plan isn’t always $10.
Storage is a real ceiling. Free’s 400 minutes is team-wide, and even Pro’s 8,000 minutes is per seat — generous, but finite. Only Business and Enterprise are truly unlimited.
Video recording is tiered by meeting length. Free has none; Pro caps recordings at 2 hours per meeting, Business at 3, Enterprise at 4. If you run long workshops or training sessions, check the cap for your tier.
Annual vs. monthly is a big spread. The prices Fireflies advertises are the annual-billed rates. Paying monthly costs about 40% more ($18 vs $10 on Pro, $29 vs $19 on Business), and Enterprise isn’t offered monthly at all.
Is Fireflies.ai free?
Yes — Fireflies has a genuinely free plan with unlimited meeting transcription and basic AI summaries, and no time limit. It’s free “forever,” not a trial. The constraints are storage (400 minutes shared across your whole team), no transcript downloads or exports, no video recording, and a limited pool of AI credits. That’s fine for testing or light personal use, but teams that meet regularly will run into the storage cap and want Pro or Business for downloads, more credits, and (on Business) unlimited storage.
How Fireflies compares on price
Fireflies’ $10/seat annual entry point is competitive, but the AI-credit model means the notetaker with the lowest sticker price isn’t always the cheapest in practice. If you want a full pricing comparison against the other major notetakers, see our Fireflies alternatives guide. For head-to-head breakdowns, we compare it directly in Fireflies vs. Otter, Fireflies vs. tl;dv, Granola vs. Fireflies, and Fathom vs. Fireflies — Fathom in particular is the most common landing spot for people leaving Fireflies over credits. For a three-way look at the budget field, see Otter vs. Fireflies vs. Fathom.
Fireflies is one of our meeting-notetaker integration partners, and the two jobs are complementary: Carly (which starts at $35/month) handles the scheduling so the meeting lands on the calendar, and Fireflies transcribes it once everyone shows up.

"Before Carly, I relied on a Calendly link, but the whole process felt impersonal and not very professional. Carly changed that by handling all the back-and-forth, so I'm no longer stuck in endless email threads trying to line up schedules.
Now Carly reaches out to candidates, shares my real-time availability, lets them pick a slot, then sends a Zoom link and drops it straight into my calendar. She sends reminders to both of us before each call, which has significantly reduced no-shows and last-minute confusion.
On top of scheduling, Carly acts like a full executive assistant, sending me my schedule the night before so I can prepare for each call. It reminds me of the old x.ai assistant, but Carly is noticeably smarter, faster, and better suited to my healthcare recruitment business."
