Choose Google Gemini in Meet if…

  • → Pricing & Value matters to you. Google Gemini in Meet scores 4/5 here against 3/5.

For Google Workspace teams, Gemini in Meet is the strongest native notetaker going, but it stays cloud-bound and Google-locked, without the on-device privacy, offline capability, or live coaching that set Hedy apart.

Choose Microsoft Teams Copilot if…

  • → Real-Time / Live Capability matters to you. Microsoft Teams Copilot scores 5/5 here against 3/5.

A genuinely strong, agentic meeting assistant for Microsoft 365 shops, but it is cloud-only, locked to Teams meetings, and the real meeting AI sits behind a $30/user add-on.

Limitations

  • −Cloud-only with no offline mode
  • −Works only inside Microsoft Teams meetings, not a cross-platform or in-person recorder
  • −The full meeting Copilot requires the $30/user/month M365 Copilot add-on; real meeting AI is effectively not free
