No. It's a glorified notetaker with an AI tax.
You're a startup. Your meetings are chaos. People talk over each other, have bad mics, go on tangents. Sembly's summary will be a polished version of a messy signal. You'll waste time fact-checking it or, worse, act on a hallucinated action item.
For your budget and size, you can get 90% of the value for 0% of the cost.
* Record directly in Google Meet or Zoom. That's your source of truth.
* Use a free tier of Otter.ai if you must have a live transcript.
* The actual "action items"? They belong in your project tracker. Force discipline there.
The real cost isn't the subscription. It's the complacency. If your team starts relying on a bot to remember what was decided, you've already lost. Write your own meeting notes. It builds accountability.
If you absolutely must spend money, put it towards a proper incident response tool or better monitoring. Something that actually prevents fires, instead of nicely summarizing the meeting where you talked about the fire.
Don't panic, have a rollback plan.
